SAMMY SOUTHWEST SAYS HELLO In recent months faculty members have received many letters from their former students who are now serving in the armed forces. Included below are excerpts from some of these letters which we believe will be of general interest to Southwesterners, who may remember many of these boys: . . . I've enjoyed the Navy every single day I have been here at Great Lakes. To me, it gets better every day. Things here are so clean it's almost unbelievable. We steel-Wool our decks twice a day. Our clothes must be clean always-even our work clothes .... I've run into a few of the fellows from school up here and had a nice talk on the wonderful times we had at our Alma Mater .... Give my regards to the faculty and the new Eights and wish them good luck for me. Bob Nischwitz . . . I'm undergoing pre-flight training here at Santa Ana, California, and have been classified as a pilot .... In the afternoon we have classes: aircraft and naval identification, code, physics, mathematics, maps and charts, and other courses. I have had two years of collegeg so I have little trouble, but for the fellows who have not had much background for these subjects, it is pretty tough. For instance, we covered six weeks of high school physics in three days this week! . . .The food here is good and we get plenty of it. Gene Sommerich . . . I'm out in Camp Farragut, Idaho. We get plenty of food and it surely is good .... Tell the fellows back home that the little training they get isn't anything-we get that much before breakfast! We have about eight or ten boys from Southwest here. Bill Muench . . . I have been out of boot camp for the past five months. When I finished my boot training, they stopped all leaves. Well, I asked for a. leave anyway, and the lieutenant said, No. I then asked him if I could have any time off to die, and he told me to die on my own time after the war, because it is against regulations to die on government time .... Last month ten men from our Coast Guard station went to Alaska. One of these days my number will come up, and I'll be across-l'm expecting' it any day, but I'm not worrying about it till the time comes. Vincent Monaco ...The first three weeks here at Great Lakes is a quarantine period' when no one is allowed to visit anybody. During this period we receive seven different shots: single, double, and triple typhoid, smallpox, dip- theria, etc. Some of my fellow shipmates got sick, but it didn't bother- me at all, except that my arm got sore from being stuck so much .... There is something to do every night even if it is just going to see a movie which is a couple of years old. Between military training and domestic life we are busy all the time. Elmer Michel . . . Here at Naval Air Navigation School in Hollywood, Florida, we are being given specialized pilot-navigation training .... After we finish our training here we will get our commissions, and after navigating patrol Twenty-eight
