K-9 KORNER
At 1700 hours, 19 Apr 68, D's Desperados commonly known at the Sentry Dog Section were honored at a demonstration of sentry dogs and handlers by the presence of BGEN Seith, Col Duff and his staff. Canines teams participating were, Sgt Treadwell and LUCKY, Sgt Wyatt and ACE, Sgt Bachman and MOX, Sgt Nutter and MAJOR, A1C Hedegard and ASTOR and A1C Johnson and RENEE. The narrator was the voice of Sgt Bothwell and acting as Drill Master, was that fine Texas Boy SSgt Lundy. The spectator's were treated to demonstrations of obedience training, selective training and attack on suit and muzzle attack.
Last but not least, the two unsung heros, Sgt Brown and Sgt Shafer, risking life and limb on the muzzle attack and suit attack.
The above personnel volunteered their servicies on a very short notice and within a matter of several hours practice, judging from the comments received and overheard, did a fine job in upholding the Squadron Honor, for doing their best at all times. At this time a plaque from the Sentry Dog Section was presented to Col Duff by Lt Col Carter for his help and assistance in many endeavorments. At this time we would like to welcome TSgt Waite, to the section who will shortly be taking over as NCOIC relieving "The Great One," to harrass poor old Pappy Deal, on "A" Flight Security.
We would like to list the names of the new personnel who have become Sentry Dog Handlers, but Sgt Simonson says we cannot use up the whole paper. So see y'all later.
A doctor, about to retire from practice decided to introduce his replacement to his clientele, and therefore took the young medic around with him on all his calls. The first case was a bed-ridden woman, who held her stomach in pain as she moaned piteously.
"Nothing wrong with your wife, said the old doctor to her hovering husband. She's go an old fashioned bellyache." He pointed to a case of drinks - all empty - over in the corner.
The next call also had a woman in bed and anxious husband. "I found her this way when I came home," said the friend's hubby. "She can't get out of bed." This time the young doctor made the diagnosis. "Get yourself an electric refrig- erator," he diagnosed. Your wife won't have the same illness again."
When the left the house the old doc asked the young doc how he had arrived at that conslusion. "The same way you did, sir," replied the young man. "Simple observation. "When we came in, I noticed the iceman's feet sticking out from under the bed !!!"
