Sometime ago when our Brigade was restimg the Sergeants had a dinner, There were visions of succulent lem- on pies, stoyies of beer, and sounds od: high jollification. And 11 the men of stripes could !have a dinner whY not the men of deeds?. We also, lance jacks and simple soldiers hive appet- ites, and (occasionally are we thirsty. Why not bay a barrel of beer, get Rabjohtri and Rollo, to da .their darn- clest, with the aid 'of Freddie Claido and others, invite the general and oth- ers of our friends?
