Hello Miss McGlynn:

Received a copy of the Log & enjoyed
living in those STC corridors for the while.
Someday I too will be a Senior.

At the present I'm working with Jap
prisoners. Being prisoners they are extremely
polite & obedient. Just about everytime I
say "hullo!" to one, he bows some twenty times
to me. This is contagious & many times
in order to save face before my superiors, I
wind up tying my shoelaces.

Yesterday I had a chance to talk to
some Americans who had just been freed
by the advancing American forces. These
were the fellows who made the death march
out of Bataan. The Japs marched them for
36 hours without food or water. Bayonetted (sp. ?)
those that stumbled on the way. Later when
interned Japs made sporting game of them
killing as many as 50 in one day. Some went
blind from malnutrition and some went....

That's why we are carrying a policy of
extermination. There is another chapter to
this story but it would never pass censorship.
