'HBH COMPANY . FLINN AND FINKELSTEIN THE JEFFERSONIAN On july eighth, as it came to pass, We boys from Missouri and c'Arkan-sass Came in to join the CMTC And all got dumped in Company HB , And from then until now Our guidon- ne'er did bow. If you want to know Why We'll tell you now. Captain Sinkler was always on deck, A mighty fine captain Was he, And ably assisted by Captain 'CHad-lee . Nelson, Gamble, and Newkirk As shavetails Were best, Although they gave us but little of rest. And just when We thought We'd have some peace Sergeant Hill put us on Kitchen Police. In the first platoon there was Sergeant Summers And he sure Was death on all late comers. - Sergeant Gohlson of the second platoon Kept us drilling from morn till noon, While Corporal Hull down in the third Kept us all stepping at his slightest Word. So We drilled and K. P'd and We Went to the dance And We hiked till We Wore out our government pants. Wle played and We fought and We shot on the range And from civies to soldiers We made a great change. And now that our time is done, , And a Well-earned rest vve've Won, We'll say good-bye to the old parade-ground And get on the 'cSunshine,'+homeWard bound. But if the Army stretched from sea to sea You couldn't beat old Company HB . BAD BREAKS FROM COMPANY UB Clyde Absher- What day of the Week is thisfl' t Sherman Hammack- Sunday V C.
