brakes real fast. The pilots jam the brakes on hard too which raises heck with them. Did you folks ever get those re caps you spoke of once? Dont expect 4 gallons per week wears out many tires tho does it. Did you ever get the B card or the extra gas you are entitled too for looking after the farms. Went to a movie and lecture yesterday that I had seen and heard several times on "Military Courtesy." It is a good one to sleep thru and that is what most everyone does and I fear I was no exception. Not very busy again today, the flight indicator hasnt come yet so the ship cant fly. Kind of a rest for the whole crew. Ill have to quit for a while we have to move one of our tent used for storage. Its going to be a heck of a job because there is a lot of heavy stuff in it which must come out and then put back in. Finally got that job done and have eaten dinner. will have to go out and put in a couple of hours calisthentics this afternoon. Played without my shirt on yesterday so I should begin to get a tan before so many days. It is cool in the shade but plenty warm in the sun. Ill go out pretty quick and work some of the kinks out. Must get back to work so Ill close. Love Johnny
