As military members our off duty behaviour is just As important As our on duty conduct As we Are soldiers 24 hours a Day. This is not to mean people can to have personal lives however a violation of the Ucma which adultery is cannot be tolerated. As a military police investigator i have conducted investigations into several valid cases of adultery where family members and or service members Are the victims of this crime. I am obligated to investigate this offence just like any other violation of the Ucma that occurs on or off duty. Yes this is the �?T90s, but until a change is made adultery is still a crime in the military. A spec. Kimberly Murphy Gie Belstadt Germany getting to the truth several individuals have written letters in some form or another criticizing the efforts of Arthur Fletcher. People seem to be offended by his attempts to uncover the truth. Many problems do exist. The Rug is bulging from All the dirt that has been swept underneath it. The most responsible thing to do is to meet Fletcher a claims head on and see if there is any Merit to what he is saying. Maybe that is the fear. People done to see or done to want to see that there is indeed such a thing As discrimination. The fact is if there is a Breeze you done to know it unless it blows against you. William b. Cox Berlin Ever think that it might be a violation of the status of forces agreement it could be i done to know. The fact remains that those who marched in Frankfurt violated a regulation and should face Ucma action not because it was a civil rights March but because it was a violation of the regulation. We should not dwell on the past but on the future. If an individual is discriminated against then that individual should go through his Chain of command or the in every senior commander that i know has an open door policy All the Way to the top. As military members in the army air Force Navy or marines we cannot afford to discriminate against each other. Our lives depend on each other. A 1st it. Scott k.

Weary of rhetoric 1 normally do not get involved to Point of writing a letter to the editor it .1 have just about read enough on racism and equal Opportunity in the paper. True the military does have some problems in these areas. I do not disagree with that. What i am tired of hearing is statements like Arthur Diggs a we Are now  sept. 29. As 1 recall slavery was abolished in 1865. What you have been fighting is racism and discrimination so Why make a comment like that discrimination runs both ways. During one of my training courses in the military the class was informed that so Many White males would receive a 5, so Many Black males would receive a 5, so Many White females would Black females hispanics and the list could go on. The quota system they implemented went All the Way Down to the lowest score an individual could receive. It did not matter if an individual was better the quota had to be met. Discrimination and reverse discrimination it was. While deployed to the persian Gulf i heard some group 1 can to recall at this time and i wish 1 could say there was a larger proportion of Blacks to Whites in the desert. Sorry this is an All Volunteer army. No one was forced to join. I am sure if you would have asked anyone Down there 99 percent wanted to be there to defend saudi Arabia and free Kuwait. Yes we fight for and will die for our rights As citizens of the United states to demonstrate against what we believe is a violation of our rights. However we Are not currently stationed in the United states. The regulation prohibits such acts for specific reasons. Did anyone time s Slady March this is in response to the writers question of where the Days go. Since 1 know All about the destiny of each single Day let me offer an explanation. I am the a Day  1 collect used up dates daily. Each month i collect outdated calendars. Days that were honoured with an a  by humans Are considered special. All Days get to think about their Short life for four years. Then 1 will Recycle them. Once again they will be banned from a Day heaven for a Day. Their goal is to make that Day better than the one before. Each human is allotted Only two partial Days in a lifetime. They Are usually used up on the Day of Conception and the Day of their death. As you see cafes is not Able to Stock or Deal with Days but just for you they might add a straight jacket on their store inventory. If they Ever do look me up. I buy it for you. Ell e Leinwand Heidelberg Germany letters to the editor the parents part and that some parents need to teach their children More respect. I do not agree that raising the entry fee will solve the problem. I do suggest that you give your cafes theater another Chance and if the problem has remained report it to your local cafes services office. It sounds to me like someone is sleeping Ott the Job and its Noff in to you or your Community. A Tammy l. Quetot Augsburg Germany no hidden message this letter is addressed to the person who thinks teenage mutant ninja turtles comics infer racist tones. 1 done to know about that individual but As a child i never wanted to be the a bad  1 usually tried to stay away from the typical bad Guy behaviour. If i saw a bad Guy do something 1 would use my immature judgment to establish that anything a bad Guy does is not right and should not be done. Whether it was use bad grammar or Rob a store the Only thing i inferred was that it was a bad a or not right. Now As far As the animals a warthog and what appears to be a Rhinoceros seem to be racist icons to this person. Why because they Are Brown and dark Gray so what Short of a Polar Bear and a Pink Freshwater Salmon a particularly vicious and brutal animal i can to think of any Pale animal. If they used anything else who would be offended then caucasians albinos racist behaviour is taught not inbred. Your child will one Day if he Hasni to already ask what racism is or worse he May experience it like i have. What then if explained carelessly the ugly Chain of contempt for the myriad of races on our planet begins again. At what Cost at what loss a Brilliant social commentary was written by someone who left us recently. The in fetches and other stories by or. Seuss is a Brilliant and thoughtful Story that shows what will happen if racial tension increases. 1 have a copy id be Happy to part with. Comic books these Days Arentt geared for children that Young anyway. A spec. Humberto i.
