VOL. I l l NO. I I AMERICAN WOMEN'S VOLUNTARY SERVICES MARCH/ 1945


GOSSIP HERE AND THERE
Well', here we go again boys - with another deskful of good letters
to read and relay to you. Just take this flash from JIaROLD LOTH S l/o
for instance. Not only are we tickled pink that he took time out to
write us at all but we feel pretty important that any envelope address-
ed to "The Friend", Mi lib urn should wing its way directly to us as if
the postman knew at a glance who it was for! Of course we are as
friendly as all get out, but that Uncle Sam realizes it gives us a
warm glow. Harold is on board a carrier and sends us the ship's paper
describing the part they took in the Lingay&n operation. No wonder
the army got ashore in such good style and we only hope your job will
be finished so you can come home soon.
And speaking of coming home, Sgt. JOHN B. SCHILLING writes from the
Separation Center at Fort Dix to say he gets homo most Sundays - a
lucky break for all except ourselves because, with the office closed
that day it means we never see him. However1, tiie Separation Center
is one of the spots you'll all be coming through on your way homo so
keep an eye peeled for Jack. By the way, Sarge - that idea of yours
regarding letter writing is a good one but read our Permanent Notice
for the answer to it.
All is forgiven, Sgt. JOHN E. JACOBUS even if you didn't stop in to
say "hello" last July and .also because this is the first we've heard
from you in a year. You know how we go for the soft soap, so after
all your compliments we're putty in your hands. To bring you all up
to date on the Jacobus news, he's out in Snlina, Kansas working on
B-29s and sounds as though a change of scenery would be welcome. We
see what you. moan when you say that sometimes you wish you were back
in high school with all your buddies but every one's homework seems to
be different nowadays. Don't forgot, we expect a visit whenever that
next leave comes up - and no excuses this time.
Now this just backs us up because no matter how long .'we go on hoping
eventually a "first" letter from an old friend oomos through. . This
time Lf. PRESTON T. COURSEN is the white haired boy who V-mails us
from the front- lines. After training for four and a half years Bub
says he's high in the mountains and delighted with the change from the
torrid wastes, tarantulas, scorpions and coral snakes which help make
up Texas, (if the Chamber of Commerce is following us too closely put
that six^shooter away - tho Lieutenant is only kidding), Keep on past-
ing the Krauts because they can't.go on forever and even their thick
skulls will have to absorb tho"fact they're losing sooner or later.
Best of luck and whenever you feel in the mood to write us again you
know how' thrilled we'll be..
2.
. . . * -. t
S/Sgt, ROCCO P. FIOLA also V*s us from somewhere on the front to say he
is. an M.P. at a B-24 basa. That doesn't sound like the most popular
job in the world but maybe the old Fiola charm manages to keep friends
along with law and order. The local beer doesn't sound too tasty so
we'-re'putting^ some 'Bailajrbi-ii-es on ice' for you - how'about-it?*"
Pvt, HUGH E. WOOD also addresses his envelope to "The Friend", care of
The Tattle, Millburn and now we're all haggling over just which of us
Tattlers is "it". Hugh, or Barry, to his pals in. the class of 67 at
M.H.S. is with the Medical Dept, working as company clerk out at Tacom-
a, Wash..and seems to like it .much better than Texas, We're sorry we
missed'seeing you. when you were.home in January Barry, but the old
fingers 'are crossed waiting for the next trip-East* Thanks for all
them kind sentiments' and ..we '.re delighted that you look forward to re-
ceiving each issue. Many thanks, too, for this first letter in months,
so be sure to write again soon.

NORMAN MAYO S l/o is bobbins around the "Pacific; on an LST keeping up


the fine record of the coast guard. Just to baffle, us Norman sent a-
lpng a picture postal of San Diego but quickly•explained he was mailing
it from an island thousands of miles away. Just why the island or
the swimming, reminds you of Point Pleasant we wouldn't know, but maybe
those three' beers had something to do with it. How about tying up un-
der a palm tree long enough so our postman can catch up. to you with th-
latest news? You're a prince to write; us twice in one month and we'd
really like to answer promptly.

Pvt.' MALCOLM CHAMBERLAIN has a nifty • s-uggestion which we are licking


our chops over even if nothing conies- of it . .. He doesn't see why Life
Magazine doesn't'give us a write-up b^caus e he thinks we deserve it I!
We could really pull up. a chair' and learn a few lessons on modesty fron
you, though, Pvt. Chamberlain, because aft er heaping :all this nice
praise on us (which vie love of course) you suddenly turn into a shy
violet arid underestimate your own job,' Th are i,sn't anything unimpor-
tant about being on duty from 7 - 7 every night, 7i days a' week, taking
care of other guys who are unlucky enough to be sick,.so throw out you"
chest and appreciate yourself. We bet the patients down at Camp Wheel-
er. go for that old bedside manner anyway.- More power' to you - and
thanks for being so kind to- us.

Opl, CfOHN SNYBER who is with a bomb Squadron brings us up -to date with
news of' himself and the other triplets.. They're still together - whicl"
must be confusing to all their co-bombers, and are well, happy and bu->;
Parked somewhere in the Marianas we get what that means too, Glad you-'
ve received every copy of "us"' and that you like us,' John, so Hello
yourself and come home soon, Millburn is very _short on triplets tiu se
days and we need i ior u local color.
. Lt. JAMES A GORDON V-mails us from England and we 'ru . thrilled that h G
sounds as cheery as ever in spite-of admitting-*that being hospitalized
for ten ..weeks is boring. We' bet that Purple Heart is becoming with
your hair'though Jimmy, and.knowing you're Doming ••...long" nicely is a
great bit of• news to your public back heier. Keep up the good work —
and be more Careful dodging the next timoi

Hi! yourself, HERBERT FRUCHTMAN,-'Pho. M.. l/c and congratulations on


that now stripe. Of course we'via considered you first class all a-
long but it always takes the Navy a bit longer to catch on. (If that
crack "calls for a court-martial, we're only kidding). Herb is in
charge, of the Photo Lab at WhitjLng Field.t Fla. and as far as we can
see there aren't any other Millburnites .staticized there. However,
even these eagle eyes may have' overlooked an adclress, so if some of
you are nearby why not drop in "to look at -th<* birdie -- and Herb? He
might even' make-a free picture for our gallery-* By the way, your new
( paper is pretty sharp so use.it again soon, will you?

If. .DAVID WARD, Q.M, :3/cv will focus'liis pretty eyes on our "Permanent
Notice", with- as much eagerness as we're noticing hi's newest, but no-
so-permanent address, he'll understand why we can't give out with the
address of FRED SCHROSDER, PH,M. a/c. We don't like to seek like heels
Dave,, but you
y wouldn't want us to bei thrown in tile nearest clink would
? typing the Tattle in chains would
you? Even if the answer i "ye
be more awkward than fun, sooo
Thanks- again, SHELDON EISEKBEHG-, S.K. 3/c for paying a visit to'the
office in February, It is our tough luck tiiaj all of us couldn't be
there to meet you. However, the fortunate ones report that it was ver?
interesting hearing first hand about Saipan and the rest of your re-
cent experiences.
Another thanks to you, too, Pvt, HARRY BILES and we're happy to have
your new address. How is dear old France, by the way? (And how
about reading our Permanent Notice, too) We agree, it would be just
peachy if you and that old pal Pfc, ERNEST KOSYDAR started writing to
each other again — but those chains are clanking, too loud for us to
listen to your pleas.
Pfc. JOSEPH M. PEPE is one guy who can turn his hand to anything be-
cause after enjoying mess duty for the past two months the Marine
Corps has now switched him to- searchlights ~ don't ask us why ~ we're
only telling you.- Nothing ever seems to bother Joe, which is why he's
so.popular. All those plans for his birthday fell through'but that
was all right too - the boys in his section heard about it so they got
'together and gave him a party to make up for it. Hope you get togethei
v/ith Sgt. MICHAEL J. DE B U S soon - it will be the first Millburn re-
union we've heard of in a long time.

JAMES LAIRD S l/o is not only a good writer but a pretty nifty artist
too. Of course we don't know if tli-e. picture of yourself standing by
your home (a cosy tent under two palms) is a good . likeness or not but
anyway, as far as we can remember, the cigarette looks perfect. Jim is
at present parked on the Marshall Islands and. in spite of the heat and
flies, life is quite easy and not nearly as exciting as it was a month
ago. In fact the only real' trouble seems to be with girls. Attaboy
Jim, you just hold off until you get back home, we don't want you
bringing a wife home from Australia even if she is pretty and. deter-
mined. As far as we know, JdHN EMERY S S/'c is thriving on Navy life.
Why don't you write him, care of us, and get your information direct*

"Dear Snow-Jobbers" is a new one on us, but coming from that old
smoothie, Cpl. S. E. WILSON, it doesn't surprise us. Stove says that
in Australia "whenever you. tell a girl how sweet she is, she says
"snow-job"." All right, all right Steve, but may. we say that evident-
ly you haven't changed a bit and that a snow plow would have'a tough
tine with that Blarney? This picture of you taken on the beach on
Christmas day looks pretty nice and you seem to be thriving on Ai'jny
fare, (or isn't that bottle G-, I. issue?) Steve has been seeing
T/Sgt. ALDEN SINE several times a week and as soon as that spring on
the Wilson truck is repaired we can just imagine the snow job they'll
do.

Checking our reporters tallies once more, we are able to glean the
following items:
LT, WILLIAM R. VANDERBILT is now in Germany. Capt, ROBERT H. WURTZ Is
,in Belgium and Pvt._ RICHARD BROKAW has arrived safely, somewhere in
France and good luck to you, boys I
JOHN A. COLEMAN S l/c, of M,H.S. 1943 is on submarine duty (F.P.O.
Frisco) and would appreciate hearing from some of his classmates - so •
how about writing him via us, boys?
Pfc. RICHARD L. HARVEY knows all about the srupyra of Europe aa it has
beon waist deep and often shoulder deep wherever he is, pinch hitting
as a stretcher bearer, One time it took him 7 hours to travel 5 miles
Sorry to say it Dick, but we don't envy you one bit, though you do
have our most "thawful" sympathy.

By way of contrast, Cpl. THAYER ALDEN HARVEY is out in those hot (for
Jap especially) Phillipines. His Airborno Unit has. been in the head-
line news lately, having been instrumental in releasing the prisoners
from San Banos prison. Boy I were there cheers back home whan that
splendid news came in too.l .. •

T/.5 WILLIAM H. NATE has found a few real comforts while battling the
Krauts as he has electricity plus an electric washing machine which,
he says compensates for the leaky roof overhead, and all we can say is
watch out for those short circuits brother - at least wo were, warned
of the perils of electricity versus water in our First Aid Courses, so
we'll pass on this little gem of'knowledge for what its worth.
4.-

Lt. HOMER LIGHTED/ALTER is at the Adjutant General's School in San An-


tonio, Texas, taking a two months course in classification - classy
work eh? (or would even the cob disown us on that bit of wize crex?)

S/Sgt. ALFRED V. SPINDLER is lucky enough at Westover Field, Mass. !


which is fairly near where his wife is completing her studies at Skid~
more. College.. Al is a'high' altitude Gunnery Instructor and w.e ho$e he
is able to descend from the stratasphere from time to time to visit
his studious missus.
HONOR ROLL • -

Twinkle, twinkle go the medals .to the accompaniment "of the happy zooms
zooms in the proud hearts of us "wait-at-horaes,"

Sgt. DAVIS H. CHANDLER has recently been awarded the Air MeSal for
"meritorious achievement" while participating in bombing missions over
Germany. He is aerial engineer and top turret gunner1 on a B-17., and
congratulations SargeJ '

Ditto of the same sentiments go out from us to Cpl. CHARLES B. SCIASCIA


who was awarded- the Combat Infantryman's Badge "for exemplary conduct
in action against the enemy in Europe."
This next event took place last November but ha3 only just reached the
.home front ears; to wit, Gpl. CARL S. BADEWKAUSEN was awarded the
Bronze Star and Purple Heart (plus promotion to Corporal) after he
climbed aboard a flaming tank and threw off live ammunition amid a
hail of enemy bullets, thereby saving the tank and getting wounded in
so doing. We'are glad to hear that he's O.K. again and back on duty,
and our best Congrats to you too, Carl I

Maj. ROBERT H. FREEMAN has been awarded the, Legion of Merit for his
part in the. installation of the. North Atlantic Airways, network of the
Army Communications Service with special mention being made in the
citation of his technical ability and ingenuity, which were decidedly
instrumental in performing a difficult feat in a surprisingly brief
;
time, •

S/Sgt, RAYMOND C. STROBLE has received the Combat Infantryman's Badge.


He is with the 9th Army, and so of course he's seen lots of action,
and we're right behind you, cheering like mad, Ray!
Lt. GILBERT McKEE MILLIGAN has received the Air Medal, - nice work!

Cpl. Frederick B. Heitkamp, Jr. has been awarded the Combat Infantry-
man's Badge and the Purple Heart, He's with the 7th Army and is well
fortified with cheers from the home front tool

From a Marine Corps photo in the Newark Sunday Call, we. proudly note
that Maj. WAITE WARREN WORDEN is being, commended for "outstanding per-
formance of duty" in the Pacific Area.by some high ranking personage
who is shaking our Major's hand. C T mon, Major, don't be a violet,
give us the lowdown won'.t you?

VICTORY BELLES

H'm, where are the Belles,' or "For Whom "do. the Belles Told?" we ask
(with painful, punful blushes in-Hemingway's direction, tool)

Anyhow, no Belle Lettres (ouch{ we really have got pun-itosis{) came


in this month, but, just so's we won't be entirely un-newsy in this
department, we'll give you 'two "Item" items about a pair of homecoming
warrioresses. MARGARET BEREERICE of the Marines, was home on leave in
time to help her parents;, Mr. & Mrs.. A. Berberich of White Oak Ridge
Road, celebrate "their 27th' .wedding anniversary recently. And WAVE Lt,
(j.g.) MARY T. ELY and her fiance Robert Gasen came • home over the week-
end from, the turmoil of Washington, D. C, where both are stationed.
(Flash!! See Cupid's Cofcner anent Ely-Gasen).

C'mon all you ladies, how's about filling our Victory Belles letter
slot a little better for next issue, so's we won't be left in the
lurch and have to make with the puns, to f.lll our allotted space. As
to vramen, we opDeal to youj

SMALL WORLD
L
"t. (j.g.) WALTER KASIS pens us an air mail epistle from the Pacific
with the S, W, news that when he came ashore from-li is D« E. recently,
on one of those islands where they have a so-called Officer'a Club,
whom should he bump into, while enjoying a warm beer or two, but Ens.
BOB LOHSE, who had been one of his students back in the M.H.S. days I
Lt. Kabis says that seeing the ex-student transformed into a fellow
officer made him feel very young again (Good gravy, who ever accused
you of any white whiskers!) Thanks, Lieutenant, for sending us the
October Tattle envelope, which seems to have covered about as much of
the globe as you have, and it's heartening to know that our Tattles
do eventually reach their man (or almost always anyhow{) Incidentally,
one of your former "Small World encounters" CHARLES LYON S l/c was in
to seR us today and mentioned his meeting with you somewhere in Wales
last year, and how embarrassed he was at being "out of uniform", all
of which we wrote up in the February '44 Tattle, when you V-mailed us
about said meeting. Don't forget to write your "Dear Gals" soon
again! And the "Item" is printing your latest "Billy-doo" to us!
We always beam happily when we espy a letter from JOHN BRAY, S l/c,
especially when he calls us his "Dear morale builder-uppers" (al-
though the title does sound a bit like something one might find among
gymnasium equipment,) Anyhow Johnny wrote in his last letter that he
had seen Lt, (j.g,) Harobine's name in the United Seaman's Service
Club in Calcutta but that he did not meet up with the owner of the
name. Since putting out to sea again Johnny discovered somehow that
he had talked to Lt. Harobine, who was aboard Johnny's Ship while in
port, only at the time Johnny did not realize the fact; he merely
thought he was talking to an officer attached to the port office. All
of which sounds highly complicated but we knew you would want to know
all about it. Seaman Bray also tells us he has seen the name of
Deane Uptegrove from Short Hills in the ServiceiClub register where
he now is, Somewhere in Iran, so we only hope his next letter won't
bear similar tidings of a "sight unknown" nature. By the way, the
Uptegrove lad's parents just moved here from Orange last September,
so he is not on our Tattle list as yet, having had no requests from
that quarter.

Here's a nice Small World double-header for you! Lt, (j.g.) RICHARD
KEEPERS and JOHN VOORHEES, M.M. 2/0, both of the Coast Guard, have
written us simultaneously to say that they are assigned to the same
Coast Guard manned Army F, S, Ship, of which Lt, Herpers is executive
officer, somewhere out in the S. W, Pacific, Though neither had met
before, it was the first time either one had met up with a home town
face and both enjoyed talking about the good old days back here. By-
the-by,. Dick, we wrote up your V-mail letter for last issue, and with
horrified eyes, we noticed our item was missing when the Tattle emerged
from the maw of the press. So, if said paragraph can be located
we'll squeeze it in as an addenda to this issue, and pray for your
patience and understanding anent samel As for you, Johnny, your neg-
lect in writing us for two long years is completely forgiven as we
peruse the sweet sayings about "us" in your letter. However, don't
think for one minute me lad, that we desire to wait two more years
for another letter. Oh, dear me, no I
Wheel Another double-header! Lt, GEORGE PENDERGAST and Sgt. JOHN
HERRIGEL have both penned us of their happy meeting out in the Mari-
anas where they now seem to share the same A.P.O, number, though we
note there is a slight difference in their battalion numbers. George
writes that his only complaint is that civilization seems to be clos~
ing in on their atoll and that he fears that pretty soon they will
have to revert to wearing ties and giving their shoes a- daily shine if
such goings on keep up. He also invites us to open a branch Tattle, of-
fice out there (Marianas here we come I Or wouldn't we like to though!
However, it looks as though we are handcuffed to the humdrtim home ex-
istence so we"'11 just make Lt. Pendergast our Marianas special fea-
ture reporter and let us hear from you soon, sonl) In John's letter
ho writes that it sure was fun discussing the good ole days in "Stumpy
Mountains" with the aforementioned Lieutenant, He adds that all out
there are trying to do their bit to bring the war to an end as soon as
possible and we're with you on that m'boyt Sorry we can't mail you
two lads some of that snow you both seem to be pining for but we're
fresh out - thank goodness! And thank the recent rains, tool
The Postmen in Europe certainly have wings on their feet these'days as
Cpl. JULIO POLICARPIO wrote us on February 15th from somewhere-
over there that he had already received his January Tattle]' Julio
says that the going has been tough but not nearly as tough as mis'sinj
all the familiar faces of gone by years • > and he certainly is i->oki.v
forward to the day when he can be back strolliiv on the old famili :i
streets, etc (Believe us, kid, it's that day of happy home cq.rdn.h/
for you allthat keeps our chine up back home]) Anyhow, Julio has
quite a bit of S.W, luck as he has five Killburnites near at hand:
namely Pf.c. FRED RIZZO, Sgt. "SKEE" THOMPSON, Pvt. BILL DA^ and GSOR(
H0NET.IEY3R. (George is not on our list for some reason?) BO f it ! s easy
to see that he's not exactly lonesome; and to add to his luck he met
his brother S/Sgt. JOSEPH POLICARPIO a while back in Belgium. Julio
says the European climate must agree with Joe as he had- gained \\- e i f ;h t
and was lookin1 gooSl Write us again, Corporal, we liked vour f i r s t
letter loads 1

Cpl. MICHAEL PASSARELLI is one of our most loyal correspondents (and


we trust you can hear our sighs of happine;is over your loyalty, way out
in the Nether land East Indies, Mike I'.) and,
by way of not letting us
down for this issue either, he has whizzed us a fine air mail job with
the S.W. info that, thanks to the Tattle (Purrl Purrl) Sgt. EDGAR
LEANDER discovered his whereabouts and looked him up on his particular
island. Mike had been off on a fruitful banana hunt but, luckily, he
returned, well laden with stalks of green bananas, in time to visit v
with Ed for a few hours before Sd had to leave. And now that each
knows the other's address they anticipate future reunionc. By the way
"ike , ole boy, the color of those bananas must be • aiite similar to the
color of our envy, as we drool hungrily over the mere thought'of one
as i t has been "Yes, we have no bananas" with an o-cessibna.l respite in
the form of a few blackened and weary looking numbers now and then for
some time. Nevertheless we d o n ' t think we'd care to swap p l a c e t with
you a t t h a t . ' Anyhoo, when you've e t y o u r s e l f eggshaped on.bananas
and i c e cream, p u l l e a s e w r i t e us again 1
From our r e p o r t e r s note books the following S.W> news b i t s come to
l i g h t . .Cpl. LLOYD C. S?.TTH,Jr. f i n a l l y got in touch with S g t .
SILBERSHER who i s stationed nearby and they had a splendid time to-
gether wherever they are (A.P.O. , 1T.Y.)
A'lso in one of. those A.P-.O., N.Y areas Cpl. '/vESLEY BENNETT wrote
home that "the impossible has happened, I-finally .net a Township lad"
and this lad was none other than * our .old pal •'Stit.s" (Cpl. PROSPER
SIANZIALE to you!) Both had mess together and r-ttended a concert
.that night.

An "almost Small World, l e t t e r " has j u r l arrived from Sgt. LARRY SUTERA
from the S.W. Pacific who writes that he thought ho saw Sgt. RUSSELL
THOMAS riding by on a truck while he was in the Netherlands East In-
dies but poor Larry wasn't sure, so the opportunity, if such i t was,
was missed,. Cheer up Larry, as there are oodles' of T/iillburners in
your present locale, the Philippines, so Keep your eyes' peeled and
don't be too ba.shfU.1 next time you think you espy a familiar looking

On March 3rd, the I.Iillburn "Millers" played Caldwell in the State


Tournament at the Orange Armory.

This Season has been one of : 'the best' in M i l l b u r n b a s k e t b a l l history,


V\fc fin-iehad' second in the suburban conference and had a grand t o t a l •
of 13 wins to - 4 losses. Coach Frank Focht has developed a r e a l l y hot
agregation, with plenty of top notch subs who can be ••run in in the
pinches". 'This was i l l u s t r a t e d in the; recent Dover game, v-.hen our
Captain B i l l Dey sprained his ankle in the second period. Our boys
continued to bear down End the. final score we:s .a decisive .44 to 24
our favor.

Other high l i g h t s of the past four-weeks were two wins over Westi'ield
(51-29) and Glen Ridge (33-28). Our boys .looped in from a l l over the
place to run up a record score for we season s.gyinst tVestfield. B i l l
Dey and Roccc Garardiello led the scoring and in the 3rlen Ridge game.,
Ben Palumbo .had the opposition standing around with theii mouths open
as he dropped in those long ones that j u s t go "swish" as they go
through.

But always a l i t t l e rain must f a l l , or something, Vcrono took us over


again,, 58-44, as "Bucky" Hackett the sepia flash scored 86 points by
himself for another record.' ' That guy i s soraething for Long Island U.
to set a trap for in our opinion.

If there's one thing your p i t i f u l sports r e p o r t e r - l i k e d about, winter,


i t ' s that there vves no baseball to struggle with, How to our horror
