This IS a fish story! Lt.George
W. Ealey, Hq. Co. ERTC supply
officer, is a fisherman from
'way back and enjoys fishing at
Camp Abbot as he did at Et. Bel-
voir, Va. where he was stationed
for 10 years prior to being trans
ferred here.
Et. Ealey says tile only thing
lie likes I letter than fishing, is
more fishing and admits he lias
caught the biggest one yet at
Camp Abliot—a 20 inch German
brown trout.
Fishing in a mountain stream
differs from casting in the Po
tomac where Lt. and Mrs. Ealey,
also an ardent rod-and-reel fan,
caught many bass,weighing four
and a half pounds and over, in
that the fish in D e s c h u t e s
streams are trickier. Lt. Ealey
spent nearly an hour bringing
in the 20-inch beauty. He has

across nets and healthy socks
by toughened hands provided
cheerful music to Abbot volley
ball enthusiasts as the first
week’s warm-up games were
