day. Right now I could stand a change on that score. I saw my first Waacs last week. She was a nice looking blonde. A whole lot better looking than the average I'll bet. Guess there is a few of them stationed around here some place. I was in Algiers a couple of times the past week. Isn't much there to attract a person after he's been there once or twice. Went down to the beach and went swimming in the Mediterranean Sea last week. The air was warm but the water was sort of chilly. Seemed funny to go swimming in Feb.and receive letters from the folks at home saying that old man winter is in full swing back there.
