AMERICAN HENS
CACKLE PROUDLY
Philosophers have long argued
over why a hen cackl'e’s when she
lays an egg. W. D. Buchanan,
extension poultryman at the State
College of Washington declares it
is because she is proud of her
work. After all, no other farm
animal deIivers so much food in a
sealed package.
The hen is a big factor in na-
tional defense, Buchanan says. She
lays twice as many eggs as she
did 50 years ago. She crams war-
needed food into every egg. The
egg, according to the Poultry and
Egg National Board. contains
B1. This is the vitamin that the
warring nations feed their sol-
diers to give them courage. The

I am finished at squadron two
now and have put in about half
the time required in the much pub-
licised “Link” trainers in squadron
three but due to bad weather have
not been able to do any flying as
yet.
The work in this squadron is
all instrument and from the take-
off to the landing nothing is
known of where you are except
that the radio headset carries a
signal that indicates whether or
not you are on a certain path in
the sky.
All the time is spent under the
“hood” and the only thing that
indicates the altitude and direc-
tion of the ship is the instruments
on the panel before the pilot.
It is difficult and rather nerve-
racking but interesting at the
same time and prehaps one of the
most important things to know
about flying that there is as it is
possible to fly through clouds from
one destination to another hun-
dreds of miles apart with never
any sight of the ground.
It has been a beautiful day but
now the wind is howling from the
south and although the stars are
out, tomorrow will probably be
another non-flying day.
Mar. 24, 1941
First I wish to report a _change
of squadron—from 3 to 5, the
‘ squadron that trains the observa-
tion and scouting men. This was
my first day there and I flew for
an hour and had to land on 30‘
count of a fog bank that came in
unexpectedly off the gulf.
The seaplanes are very easy to
fly and I got along fine and had
no trouble at all. It is the type of
duty to which I have been as-
lsigned and I think I’ll like it.
i The weather seems to be break-
Iing now and is becoming warm
and muggy.
I went to town and had my uni-
form fitted Saturday evening and
they are pretty nice to look at. I’ll
be glad when the time comes when
I can wear them permanently.
April 12, 1941
I got thru a good instrument
check in squadron 3 last week and
now am the proud possessor of an
approved instrument rating and
, could , if need be, navigate by the
laid of instruments and radio in
the middle of a solid overcast.
I passed the “solo check” in
lsquadron with flying colors and
spent a few more hours flying
formation again since that time
and tomorrow am supposed to
start flying navigation and gun-
nery.
There are just three weeks left
if the weather is good but today
Was a continuous cloudburst SO
the chances are that it will take
longer. I don’t think I’m going to
have the chance to come home
but have not gotten the final word.
I will know for sure where I am

Cadet Donald Wise,
the training which
on the station (Pensacola) or at
Jacksonville (Flordia) or Corpus
Christi (Texas).
The work is rather heavy now as
the type of flying in which I am
engaged requires a great deal of
radio work and it is all in code
and the procedure is quite exact-
ing and must constantly be refer-
red to for any amount of proficie-
ncy in the art of communication.
Also, flying and navigating over
water andout of sight of land is
a trick in itself which requires
constant attention and provides
an example of doing something
different with each hand at the
same time.
Tomorrow I am supposed to
check out in a first line ship of
the fleet to complete the training
in. They’are a very nice outfit
and when in the air are very nice
but the characteristics exhibited
on the water are little tricky and
they have a habit of shedding the
wing floats at embarrassing mo-
ments. This caused some excite-
ment day before yesterday when
one ship lost one float altogether
and my roommate's ship practic-
ally lost one.
I sprained my ankle playing
volleyball this evening and may be
held up a few days. I don’t seem to
have much to say or talk about
except flyin but then that is all I
ever do he e. The most radical
thing we do for recreation is din-
ner and a show in town, and things
like that don’t make material for
a letter.
