We all have to wear Class "A" uniforms around here all the time - rules. We have a dandy club here with mess which is good and a movie house right in the club. Beer, wine and certain liquors are sold. Yesterday after playing ball I tried to shave and shower - and it's no fun with cold water, let me tell you. The shower is a tin can with holes to whic 2 hoses are emptied into it from the taps at a nearby sink. Last nite Fish and I went to the Post Theatre and saw "Shadow of a Doubt" with Joseph Cotten and Teresa Wright - a Hitchcock production which was excellent - different and full of suspense. This AM we got up, ate eggs for breakfast and came back for our 8:15 meeting. We were told we might get passes starting today so we are just hanging around waiting. Time 8:59 AM - Monday AM - Last night and yesterday afternoon they had a party and dance at the club with imported gorls from nearby Belfast. A good time was had by all if the condition of the club this AM is any criterion. They had quite an entertaining floorshow with a Captain (Irish?) for M.C. He sang Shoo Shoo Baby with some major playing drums. He also sang his own version of St. Louis Blues, full of dirty limericks. Cute too. Some of those Irish belles sure are nice. Yeh!
Sat around barracks, gabbed, played cards, played ball this afternoon - real rough! Had beans for supper and went to see the 7:30 show. At 8:30 when they still hadn't fixed the projector we all took off and called it quits. So I don't like Frank Sinatra anyhoo. Especially in "Higher and Higher." Looks like we're going to get about $126.00 per diem for our trip over here. Not too bad. Not too bad.
