Letter in t solution the writer of shape up soldiers oct. 29 makes a Point of being a sol Dier of the . Army and How female soldiers Are continuously harassed by adolescent soldiers of All ranks. She goes on to say that one morning As she and her co worker walked to work a group of male soldiers out for a morning run Sang Yoho on the left run with us griping to letters to the editor is not the solution. This Soldier should have done what she said and run Down the males who had made this disgusting re Mark. ". V. A " staff sgt. Russell t. Germany consider this there were More than 20,000 free Blacks that fought on the Side of thes South. And there were More than 5,000 Blacks who themselves owned slaves in America before the War. These too Are facts that can be easily substantiated yet in this climate of political correctness they Are relegated to the base ment of history to languish quietly while True history is being rewritten. For an to or any other member of the fourth estate to promote such an Agenda is a slap in the face of journalistic integrity. If they can t get it right i would suggest they not even try. Andrew Harley Augsburg Germany single soldiers count recently a single Soldier workshop washed in a bavarian style hotel and was much appreciated. We Learned How to actively listen to other residents How to watch for warning signs of depression and fatigue so that one Day Well not Only help ourselves but be Able to help other residents before they fall into a rut that May Cost them their Job or ultimately soldiers were allowed to voice their concerns and actively create their own policies that would Benefit All single Dor Mitory soldiers. This truly showed us single Soldier that we were part of the Grafen Wuhr Community of excellence. It gave us the drive to take a participative role in Mak ing and sustaining single Soldier Stan Dards for the dormitories. But most of All it allowed us to feel that we As single sol Diers can and do make a difference in the Community. Spec. Michael j. Netter Grafe Wohr Germany poor headline in your letters to the editor Section you Reserve the right to edit letters for clarity length and so who s edit ing the news department for taste i am astounded at your poor taste on Page one on oct. 28, judgment at this sensationalistic headlined res to compare the military draw Down in the Nurnberg area to the holocaust i guess paper sales Are a Little slow no wonder w " Dan Smithra Stcin a Germany Side and bowl regularly Here in is it that we never see a match on our american forces network to Sta Tion i remember when we did. For one reason or another the Bowling disappeared. I can also remember when we could get up Early and watch it or set our video recorders to tape it for watching at a later Date. Those Days have Long passed also v / -.,do you think that a forces radio and television service in los an Geles could find one hour per week 3 . Would be Fine to broadcast the Sweekly Bowling matches and ceremonies to us i think that you could please lots of bowlers if you did. We could then keep up with our favourites the equipment they use their styles and any recent changes that May have taken place to or for the game. Tyle Slette Heidelberg Germany misleading int Erie rials political correctness. Why does this continue to be tolerated once again we Are exposed to false and misleading information in Pursuit of political correctness. I m referring to these of those 15-second infomercials on american forces network using an animated Uncle Sani to educate us View ers on the . Constitution and its amendments. Specifically the one dealing with slav Ery and the 13th amendment its cause and effect. This cartoon Uncle Sam states that be tween 1787 and 1861 slavery was debated until it caused the outbreak of the civil this is not Only grossly inaccurate but More importantly an affront to the intelligence of those who simply seek the truth not some inane packaged Effort presented and Infin Tum and Nau Seum to a captive audience. This also makes me wonder what they consider the Intelli gence level of their audience to be but that s another letter. First the facts slavery was not the cause of the civil War. The causes of the civil War were multiple and Complex but can be summed up in two words states rights and a state s right to determine it sown course self determination and the extent of Federal government intervene lion interference in its affairs with re Spect to tariffs and Trade Raissez fare. Front Page blasphemy what has it come to i was saddened and angered to see the outright blasphemy printed in the front Page article Green Beret a teams were ready to Lead fight oct. 28. Instructions for submitting a letter state we Reserve the right to edit letters for clarity length and Why Don t you demand the same edit process from your staff writers particularly when it comes to taste How disappointing. Carol Lenn Ramstein a Germany weighty cat Issue whenever i think i be heard it All along comes another Gem. Is there no limit to ignorance at Jis lady is shipping two cats to the United states. She a doubling them up Inone Carrier and now cries consumer rip off because she has Topay full let s say one cat weighs 10 pounds and the other 6 that s 16 pounds of those 16 pounds Are put into one Carrier or two really does not matter. What you pay for is the 16 pounds of cat. Is that so hard to comprehend i am so sick of All the lame excuses people come up with when they re dump ing their pets before they leave. Finan Cial prohibition is the most pathetic excuse of them All. There Are ways to find out the Cost of shipping before acquiring a pet. If you feel the Cost is too High the do some dog or cat a big favor by not get Ting it in the first place. Nina Bertz Mohringer Germany Lunatic fringe my wife and i and the kids Ere evacuated five weeks ago from the . Naval base at Quant Dynamo Bay Cuba ave and other nonessential had to leave when the haitian and cuban refugee Popula Tion exceeded the 40,000 Mark on our Small three years we have lived with refugees who sold every belonging for a Hance on an overcrowded Freaky sail boat. Thousands have died attempting to reach both Freedom and the american economic dream. This is not unlike Many other desperate people throughout history. /. Our current policy dictates thai these boat people be interdicted at sea and be detained in Grant Namo Bay until they return Homer. Tent life in Guantanamo is hot stressful and depressing on its Best Day. Also the future holds Little Hope. On oct. 31 a writer in your paper said boat people Are fed clothed and doctored tree and noted that americ ins Are taxed to the this writer asked if America s military Force was becoming the garbage collector of haitian i know of no americans who would accept the benefits we bestow on these refugees. At the same time we should be aware of and fight against the Lunatic fringe that would declare refugees filth and promote natural superiority. James r.
