And the tuneful Quot Yankee Doodle Dandy a starring Jimmie Cagney Walter Huston and Joan Leslie. A sgt. Dick Bruner hello major dear editor this time it was by a major. He leaned toward tile not saluting practice. He didst like it. His Kiter was very interesting but it did no to strike me As being on the up and up. Maybe that a because in Only a second lieutenant. Lets look at some of the things he said. A a while travelling in to in Algiers area have noticed the number of officers and enlisted nun who do not you notice he did t say Algiers and let it go at that. He said the aligns area. He knows terminology knows of what he Speaks. He says he noted tins deplorable condition while travelling. I assume he Wasny to walking. Where i came from we walked Down the Stet t and travelled in trains cars . So i take it the major was Riding in something. Well having been a private for one year a second lit tenant tor another in be come to know something of saluting and not saluting. The major did t say How Many officers and men failed to Salute him while he Rode through the area. He said he noted the number. It could have been Only one. For ail i know. But i take it he meant the number was Large counting officers and men who did not Salute him As he dodged Allied vehicles would be a hard task even for a major so i won t of Bibb e about a definite number. However i do Hope someone did Salute the major. Lets see what else this in shooting saluting major says. Quot we men who Wear the uniform Are walking in the footstep. Of Many others who have gone before in a afraid this Bromide has tripped the major at least in the Algiers area for he admitted he was t walking in anybody a footsteps. He was Riding. And not Only was he Riding but expecting All below his rank to sa1 Lite him As he breezed by. As for his theory of the Salute its the old old Story. For some reason i can t bring myself to saluting a uniform. If i did re be saluting French waiters be cause they Wear our uniform i Salute the rank and the Many look him in the Eye too. In it never caught in to the idea of walking Down the Street and scanning the passing traffic my Side and me opposite Side of the Street just to Quot Greet a Superior officer. Quot done to cheapen the Salute by having to be told about id like to inform the major during his travels that the Salute Here is by no Means cheap that is. When you have to be told Abt it it i know a first Lieut Nant who paid Twenty dollars because he had to be told about one he did no to give. Of Well being Only a second lieutenant id better get to work. I la leave the major to his travelling and Salute seeking. Happy Hunting Maior. A second Looie earlier shows dear editor due to the fact that standing orders state no Soldier is to be Oil the streets of Algiers after 2300, it is my opinion that a suggestion should be made to the proprietors of French cinemas to Start their movies earlier in the evening that american troops can attend them and still be off the streets by this hour.
