Chase, Lionel E.
Coca-Cola "is guarded a lot closer than Bombsights," and they've run out of "Stuka Juice," with "Spanish Banana Brandy" hitting too hard. He has the blues and "a touch" of post-traumatic stress disorder ("flak-happiness"). He did not find Bob Wade or Katherine Pyle, but had a letter from Willard Wallace. He comments on several items in the Aztec News Letter and wants to see more "local color" in it.
