/ i / Thursday; ApHI 24,1941 THE CLINTON CHRONICLE, CLINTON, S. C Poge Five I NEWS FROM BATTERY B" AT CAMP STEWART Bj JOHN B. CBANfOBO. JB.^ . ## After two’ months of intensive tndning we have come to realise that we are in'the United States army, and ar^ fast becoming a reeogniz^ battery of the 107th Separate Bat Anti-Aircraft) talion Coast Artillery( of Camp Stewart, Ga. Summer here in Camp Stewart has suddenly burst umn us like a bomb shell. Every one is wondering whetii- er or not (wfam tl>ey go home for the week-end) their folks Will mis take them for ‘‘darkies,*’ because they are so mudi in the tan. Wednesday we were taken for a twenty-mite stroll through the surrounding swamps. Most of the boys enjoyed the; trip: .they said it was educational 'to travti by foot, through the Geor^ swamps dodging mosquitoes and kwing the way. The wonderful part of it was that we DID find our way bade. If you, dear read- could see the surrotmding coun try you would understand. First Sergeant Owens is doing fine after receiving a gash in his teg that tnree stitches. To quote Ser- requirad geant, “I’ll never try to fight a 87- millimeter gun again.” Our deepest sympathy to our “buddy,” Private Sydney L. Riser, whose brother was kilted Sunday night in Columbia. At the time of this writing every one in camp is preparing for a hike which will take us away from here Tuesday morning and return uf late Wednesday night. The events of the hike will be kept and passed cm. to you in my next writing. We have almost every spo#t here except baseball. However, we will be reddy for our first scdieduted game in several weeks. We are all urged to take part in some fcarm of ath letics, due to the fact we need the exercise(?7). Today our stoves were taken out of our tents, giving us much more room and proving that summer is really here. , In closing, may I leave with you this very comforting thought. Sun day, April 20th,' was Adolf Hitter’s fifty-second birttkday and it is inter esting to know that he has one year 1^ to terrorize the world, and if the b<^ of Battery ‘3’’ ever have to do battle with him and his legions and they fight.as hard as they have tratecd, then his time would be ma terially reduced.
