The gals were his severest critics then just As they Are now. And he didst have the comeback i quoted above. The service was not crying for the ladies As it is today. The shortage in enlistments in the various women a auxiliaries is producing talk of drafting them.

But judging from re Lor Tabie Tor the civilian Young men i dont think they have reached the stage of handing out or mailing White feathers an idea which some of them borrowed from eng-1 land in the last War. But i am told up a Fine line that bartenders disturbing their civil it seems that with a couple of drinks under their Rayon girdles these girls can make a shot seem mighty tasteless to a civilian target for their comment.

Ports that reach my ears Many of thought a hernia ought to be. Only the fair ones Are disregarding any it Wasny to in that place at All. But possible inconsistencies in their opposite and As a consequence army hecklers an embarrassing incident came up on the West coast not Long ago when some service Fellows varnished a couple of civilians wild turned out to be a discharged Marine of this War and a Seaman of the merchant Marine on furlough. I think like Many do that the government should give discharged soldiers and sailors some insignia that would show to the Public the fact of their service and make it a felony for anyone not entitled to the insignia to display it.
