About twenty guests wore present and alter an hour of bingo and other Monday morning we again left Camp Stewart on another of our well-loved and exercising hikes throu^ the marsh lands of Georgia,’ and we still can’t understand how Sherman marched his troops through our beloved swamps in such a short time. If they had taken some of the routes we have there is a great pos sibility that diey still would be wad ing around here. But aa time comes and goes we are getting more used to just wandering around and wonder ing when and if we are going to quit pretending to be in war and get into it Naturally, we don’t want war, but when it starts to endanger our coun try and our loved ones, then we are ready for anything *Bfr. Hitler can throw at us, and in the meanthne we have quite a few surprises we will presMit him. There isn’t a man (or boy) in camp who wouldn’t fight, and be proud to, imtil every oimce of stroigth has left his body. Of course, die army in one sense is Dke a barrel of apples, there are al ways one or two rotten ones in the crowd. Hitler is no fool; we have to give credit where credit is due (eVen though we hate to). He is more or less a genius, but, to quote “Pic” magazine, “Mr. Hitler, the English channel is only 22 miles wide, and you can’t or haven’t yet crossed it, and there is 3,000 miles of water be tween (iermany and America. Just how l(mg do you think it would take ydu to cross that?—^Never.” Here in Camp Stewart we are en joying picnics (hikes), sunshine and sleep; IRRougn trtr afe'Stm sleeping undenieath big comforts ynd blan ker because at night it really tiuns cold. We have been using gas masks \^idi we carry with us at all times we are on duty. Our siunmer uni forms have been given out and our winter clothes are about to be placed until next winter. • We of the 107th Sep. Bn. have started a small weekly newspaper with which, so far, we are doing nicely. Three of our boys from Clin ton lottery “B” have been elected to positions on the'staff. They are C. B. Kirkley, typist; W. G, Somerville, re porter, and John Hopper Cranford, Jr., associate editor. Each week SgX. Ross returns from home he has enough food to feed an army and practically does, because he spreads the provisimu out on a table and invites everyone to enjoy it with him. Usually everyone takes him up on it. It seems as if everyone in camp is eligible to catch guard duty, even our mess Sgt. Foster has caught it, and supply Sgt. Warren hasn’t long befme his turn. We have heard rumors of Clinton forming a Home Guard, and we ex tend to them our best widies and hope that they are never called on to do federal service. But if they are we feel assured that we woiild have a-strong second Une of defense. Joe Terry, Jr., puts in his application for bugler. He is willing to make a sac rifice and le^ive Battery “B” for the hmne guard. At the time of this writing we have exactly 9 months, 24 days, 17 hours, 39 minutes and RS seconds until our year is over and we will return to our honv^s—unofficial.
