[Milsurplus] G.I. Humor

[Hue Miller]

I was reading a "CBI Roundup" newspaper, Delhi, India, 2 March 1944,
and noted these article titles and photo captions:

"Not all Hari-Kiri Boys.
This fellow...wounded...grins ruefully at Uncle Joe (Stillwell) at a
jungle
headquarters. He attempted to shake hands with the general, but the
CBI commander  saw no reason for social amenities...the prisoner was
given a cigarette by one of his Chinese captors...."

"14th A.F. Throws Japanese Yangtze Swim Party"

"Lt. F. Distelzweig enjoys all the comforts of  home sweet home,
as he reclines on his sack reading a sugar report from Stateside".

"The lead plane leaves home to pay an unsocial call to the Japanese
somewhere in Burma that will be most unwelcome".

"This four-engine flying boat was peacefully sitting in a Makin Island
lagoon undergoing repairs when Uncle Sam's planes came over and
made further repairs unnecessary."
