Cobb, Joseph F.
Cobb's paper has a cockle finish and his name embossed. He is "flying P-38's" at Muroc where they are being "processed" for the "big show." He hopes to get to San Diego before going. He hears his fraternity brothers from Delta Pi Beta are almost all in the armed forces, but sends his regards to anyone left. He likes the idea of college credit for military service and hopes the basketball team "cleans up" in memory of Milky Phelps.
