going to do with our charges,
Much earlier, as we jogged down
the river road on our elephants,
we had decided on names for the
cots. Ginglss, insisting that there
was a resemblance to a girl in
Calcutta, had named his "Mar
got." And since Tony, whenever
he was feeling his drinks, had a
tendency to go into a certain very
corny dance routine, it was only
natural that he would call his
''S'-izy Q." Another reason for
those selections, of course, was
thut theirs were lady cats. Mine
was a male, and in addition .to
being the more active of the three
he had a habit of licking out with
his tongue and making a hissing
noise whenever either of the oth
ers got too close to him. I called
him "Spitfire." ;
rpONY ond Suzy Q flew back to
lfitnmlncr fmm TOInlnn whila
Ginglss and I and our cats
went down to Calcutta to arrange
for our return to America. I
knew It would bo good to see the
States again, to visit with my
family and friends back home.
But there was a feeling of going
out of action; of leaving impor
tant things behind things that
had to be done by someone, things
that perhaps I should bo staying
on to do. I've heard soldiers talk
that way when they are given a
medical discharge. "Hell, tho war
Isn't over yet, and I can still
fight. What if I do limp a little
bit? I con still carry a gun,
can't I?"
Sure, and I could still fly an
airplane and tho C. N. A.C need
ed all the pilots It could get to
fly its transports across the Hima
layas. But It was like that old
saw: "Tho best soldier Is a live
soldier." And the best pilot is a
live one, too. If I stayed on in
India drinking oxygen with tho
C. N. A. C. I couldn't possibly
havo remained alivo for more

This burned tho senators up.
One demanded why the men who
fought in Europe shoucldn't have
a chance to spend their money
and enjoy life now the shooting
has stopped. Ferguson usked
what the army is doing' to im
prove the situation.
Brig. Gen. Kenneth Roynll re
plied the army is expanding post
exchanges in France so men can
buy everything, including gifts,
at reasonable prices.
Several senators quizzed Dean
Acheson and Will Cluyton of the
stale department os to who hud
fixed the unfavorable rate of ex
change with the French. Both
replied they didn't know. Actu
ally, President Roosevelt had
done it, personally, during the
Casablanca conference.

TT was gocrdby to a wonderful
bunch of boys courageous,
hard-working lads who liked
their Jobs ond the thrills they en
tolled just as much as I did; who
liked to laugh and drink and play
cards; who liked carousing ond
song and women and who day
after day risked their lives on the
touchest airline route in the
world not because they had to
but because they wanted to.
i Ginglss and I were afraid that
it was going to be goodby to Tony'
Mcrccde, too, because during the
first week of waiting for word
from him In Calcutta we heard
nothing. Finally we went ahead
with our own plans, arranging
transnortatlon to Karachi and
Bombay and by liner across the
Arabian Sea to Ourbln, bourn
Africa. From there we would
take the train to Cape Town,
where we hoped to. get passage
on a convoy or troopship return
ing to the States. Two days be
fore wo were to leac by piano
for Karachi wo received word
from Tony that ho would Join ns
in Calcutta on the fifteenth. Al
Prlvensal brought the message,
having arranged to spend a few
days with us In the city before
wo left, and we sent word to Tony
through the pilot who had
brought Prl down that we would
meet hlro in Karachi Instead.
Then Ginglss and Pri and I start
ed making the rounds ot the bora
and night clubs and theaters. Two
days later we shook hands at the
oirport, and Gingiss and I and our'
leopard kittens began tho long
journey home.
