Auh has a Short a it Padour that slants Forward instead of Buck. Giving him the Gleet of standing with his Back to the wind. He has a dry scottish humor and j takes tile Navy in his slime he used to read this column Back in Cit Veland. So you can see lie s a smart Man. We have la negro boys aboard All serving in the stewards department. They wait on tables in the officers mess and run the wardroom pantry that col l be going 24 hours a have a separate their own for quarters but otherwise they live just As the while sailors do. They Are All quiet Nice boys and a credit to the ship. Three of them Are exceedingly tall and three exceedingly Short. They All have music in their souls sometimes i have to laugh at them when the wardroom radio happens to be playing a hot tune during meals. I be noticed them grinning to themselves and dancing Ever so slightly As they go about their serving. I Haven to room to give More than a couple of their names. One is George Edward Mallory of Orange. A. He is 32. And before the War worked As an unloader for one of the Chain grocery stores in Orange. I he has been in the Navy a year and has been operated on for appendicitis since coming to Africa. He got seasick once but it i does t bother him anymore. He is tall and quiet and serious. He had never wailed on tables before but he s Good at it  Lier one is Fred Moore who is the Littlest and tile Meek est and the blackest one on the ship. Fred has a tiny Black Mustache which you can t see. And a perpetually startled look on his Good natured face. He is very quiet and shy. His Home is at to tenth ave South Birmingham. Ala. He is just 21. And has been in the Navy Only since March he likes it Fine and thinks he May stay in after i he War. Before joining up he did common labor at army Camps and on fruit farms Fred has a gift. He a a wizard Al baking delicate and Beau ii pastries. He makes All the pastry deserts for the officers mess. He had never done any cooking before joining the Navy except tory a few hamburgers in a Short order joint. He can t explain his Knack for pastry making ifs just like somebody who can play the piano beautifully without Ever taking lessons the whole ship pays tribute to his Little Streak of Genius. Fred says he has never been n t ick nor very homesick but pvt during some of our close shaves Day. I hey in action he says he sure was mail Call notice the Fust ail ugly Chan us.
