The people there live in a state of poverty. If it were not for Hunting Many families including my own would have gone without meat at Mealtimes. We do not Hunt for trophies and we do not leave the meat to rot out in the Snow. After butchering an animal i sell the hide to a leather Smith in town who makes boots and Coats from the hides. The Bones go to the dog or help to add flavor to a pot of Venison Stew. We Are the True Hunters the ones who take Only what we need from nature in order to sustain the balance of our environment. We do not Only kill the Strong animals. In All my years of Hunting the Only male animal i have killed was a yearling Deer without his Antlers. In Montana he herds of Deer and Antelope arc enormous. I feel it would be a shame if Sioux children had to go hungry while such a multitude of animals existed. Indians lived in Harmony with their environment for millennia. We still can. I Hope that this letter will help some of the anti Hunters understand that for some people Hunting is the Only Way to survive. Food Stamps done to Cut it. A spec. Dale Fourbear Augsburg Germany reply was no answer Jane Wilson a reply in a recent action line did not answer Howard Hulsens question. Or. Hulse knows the regulation. He a clearly asking the a a Why behind the regulation. He understands the Why behind double dipping a the drawing of two salaries from the government. But he does no to understand How or Why that should apply to accrual of leave in his second government Job. He Isnit drawing two sets of leave from the government so Why is he being Short changed on leave accrual other employees get credit for military service Why does no the we Are used to regulations in the military. But there is a reason behind the wording in regulations. Please give us the reasoning behind the regulation. Tell us a Why a or do us the decency of saying you done to know and will find out the answer. My. Burton l. Brink Sembach a Germany a a thanks for helping son on saturday nov. 9, my family and i were shopping at the Niernberg Exchange. At about 1 . My son Daniel decided to explore the store by himself. My husband thought i had him and i thought my husband had him. Hut of course neither of us had him. The store was so crowded. A Little Hoy running around crying would not faze Many people. We looked everywhere. I started to panic. My son loves to venture out. I thought he went out of the store. My husband went out into the mall and the parking area and still no Daniel. I thought my world was collapsing when 011 the loud speaker they announced a Hoy was found. I ran from the Back of the store. Sure enough there he was. A lady was holding him. He looked seared and was crying a Little. I grabbed him and started crying. I was so relieved and grateful. All i could do was hold on to him. But i forgot to thank the lady who took time out of her shopping to notice my Little boy and to help him find me. So from the Bottom of my heart thank you so very much and May god bless you and your family.

Week after week these unilateral decisions to tape delay games Are forced upon an audience that deserves much better treatment than that. What makes us so different in our viewing preferences from the folks who receive the seb telecasts Why can to we receive live College football coverage when there appears to be no reason for us not to other than programming Choice we Are the ones who should say what that Choice is and based on letters to the editor and people in be spoken with we want live College football telecasts. A capt. . Mack ludwigs Burg Germany Apo a linage ill Cocci cd the Many recent letters articles and action line items about the changes to the Apo system the a mess Are a growing concern to myself and Many other supervisors. We read suggestions to a a bombard the . Postal service with our problems and advice not to use the old addresses they will delay our mail with amazement. It seems that Dod and the postal service have combined forces to slam the troops with a second postal disaster in a year and done to even realize they Are doing it. In an Effort to help them understand Why this Issue is becoming a a emotional lets review the facts from the poor Patron s Point of View. First. Desert shield caused massive delays to our mail so had that Post offices had to hand out form letters so we could verify that Bills arrived so late that they were already past due. Even if it was an unexpected result of the War it happened to us. Now just months later those in charge have implemented and mishandled the first Ever Basic change in the Apo system during a period of base closures unit moves and Force draw Downs. It should be no Surprise that it Isnit going Well and those of us who followed their directions have again suffered delayed or returned mail. The Only person who has done Well in this double disaster is the perceptive army representative who delayed that services Start into the abyss having sensed that this was not the time to make such a massive change. The rest of us did no to have leaders with such perception and Wisdom.  they Are right to now sense our anger frustration and growing emotionalism As they single mind edly insist on keeping the july 15, 1992, cutoff Date despite the problems they have caused. This raises institutional arrogance to new Heights. We poor defenceless patrons can Only Hope someone will clean House and that the new people in charge will at least give us three More months since the past three have been nearly wasted entirely. A chief master sgt. Ronald d. Goldfeder Zaragoza a Spain Frankfurt so other Side this is in regard to your recent feature on the Frankfurt High school football program. Granted Frankfurt has an excellent team this year and should be commended. However you failed to show the other Side of the picture. Having been to Many schools Over the past few years to watch my son participate in High school sports i have never seen students act the Way those in Frankfurt did during and after a recent football game. When the visiting cheerleaders went across the Field to entertain them at halftime Boos jeers and shouts of a go Home could be heard. Throughout the afternoon. Frankfurt students continually walked in front of the visitors stands shouting profanities. When the game was Over Many of the players and students were afraid to go to the buses. It was Only the presence of maps that allowed Safe passage. I also observed Frankfurt students shouting obscenities at parents As we were leaving. Maps had to escort our students buses to Burger King so they could get something to eat before the drive Home. It is Only at Frankfurt High school that i have seen or heard of problems this severe. I have seen Many great football games in Germany to include some intense rivalries such As Kaiserslautern and Ramstein. Overall students and parents alike have been courteous and Well behaved. Our kids May have lost on the scoreboard at Frankfurt but when it comes to sportsmanship Frankfurt is a Distant last. A John w.
