"I'm a stranger In town, Just
passing through, and I want to
find my old buddy that was in the
umty umpth Infantry. Do you
know where he lives?"
This Is a question that is often
asked these days, even though itV
ten years after the war. A good
Lmany boys who fought side by side
have lost track of each other ex
cept that they know the other fel
low was from Salem or some gen
eral locality.
The best4lace to find out where
that old buddy is, is to ask the
American Legion adjutant, and
the best way to avoid being listed
among the "lost buddies" Is to
have a legion membership card
and be on the legion directory at
the adjutant's office. Here is a
