Nieman Marcus it ain't ! pil :gint 55.15 Because it is responsible for most of our comforts, necessities, and primary luxury - the coke machine - Supply undoubtedly must put up with ten times as much griping as any other division. Perhaps all those unreps, vertreps, and stores handling parties have made the rest of us a little bitter. Then again, watching the men of Supply always being the first across the brow hasn't increased our feelings of charity very much. The poor cooks take the worst of our grousing, but they seem to bear up just fine. CThe probable ans- wer is that all Navy cooks must be maso- chists, even though our stomachs would vote sadist from time to timel. Yet, true to form, the cooks themselves always enjoy their own cooking. The good people of Bangkok wished that Roberts and Quintanella didn't enjoy it so much. Roberts was the major factor in the collaspe of a dock during the Bangkok tour. Later on, he and Cowboy got on an elevator that had worked fine with just six other Supply men aboard, but the added weight of the Dy- namic Duo stopped it cold. QPerhaps they could take advantage of Beltran's con- ditioning program, as his morning dashes to make up Cece Rider's rack before he got back in it would keep anyone in shapej.
