Needless to say with our four children at home I was feeling young and attractive again (even with a pregnant belly.) So as my husband and I were having a nice conversation conversa-tion and the thoughts were running through my mind of how handsome my husband is and how happy we have been over the years. It felt like something you would see in the movies. But the moment was over quickly as in walked five gorgeous, tan, young girls in bikinis and not a stretch mark to be found on their bodies.

I knew he was still thinking of me (somewhere in the back of his mind.) I know that years bring beauty in a different way, knowledge that I only want more of, stability, and love that you cannot find when you are young. I know I should enjoy the thoughts of my hips becoming becom-ing harder to move, and my teeth not being my own, but I hope I loose my memory so that I forget how it feels to be young. Still I might trade my body for the tight skin, the tan and the cosmetic makeup of a young girl. day, 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., except holidays.

David Cunningham Bankers Really developed by: SIENNA soldiersummit.com Last at Camp Kearns veterans Camp Kearns when it closed in 1946. Allan has a twin brother, an older brother (age 105), and 13 other brothers and sisters all still alive. This interview inter-view took place in SLC on June 19, 2007. PI was born in Nassau, Ba hamas. My great-great-grandmother was a slave to Pres. Andrew Jackson. Jack-son. Somebody stole a ship and sailed his slaves to the Bahamas. When Jackson was asked, "Ain't you goin' to get your slaves?" he said, "No, I ain't worried about them. They'll come back when they get ready. They've got the name Jackson, so they'll be back." My mother was born in Trinidad, West Indies. My parents met when they was "island hoppin'," going around entertaining. My parents moved back to the United States with nine kids. They entertained in Georgia, Geor-gia, Florida and all around, then got to Montgomery, Ala. When I was nine, me and my brother was watching from behind the curtain my parents playing and dancing in Montgomery. A Jewish family, the Strausses (of the Levi-Strauss family), told my mother, "I want to adopt them twin boys." My mother said, "Okay." So I just became part of the family. fam-ily. There wasn't no papers signed or nothin'. At that time, all poor people lived off the ground. They had their little gardens in the yards behind their houses, where they raised a little corn, a little peanuts and everybody survived. sur-vived. They killed hogs in the wintertime. During the depression depres-sion times, didn't nobody suffer suf-fer but the rich man. Food was rationed and he didn't know how to raise food. It cost him money to buy black market food. When I was about 25, 1 went to be a cook at Maxwell Field. I volunteered for the army in 1937, because I couldn't support sup-port my family of 10 children on a dollar a day, six dollars a week, and the government took 82 cents of that. In the army, I could make $35 a week, and my wife and dependents de-pendents were taken care of. I wasn't attached to no base, no company, no nothin'. I was only attached to the United States Army. When I joined the army, I was sent to Ft. Campbell, Kentucky, and then to Fort Douglas, in Salt Lake City. I YEAH. I LOOK VALIANT IN MY BRAND NAME GUt.

Main St. American Fork, Utah Editor's note: This is the first in a series about Allan Al-lan Jackson, age 103, who was the last soldier to leave called what we did there "spying," "spy-ing," because we Blacks were all in civilian clothes. There was about 12 colored soldiers there. I was in Utah about nine months, then spent 18 months in a camp in Mexico. In 1941, 1 went back to Maxwell Field, and I was there when Pearl Harbor got bombed. Everything changed, and there came to be units. In 1942, 1 was told, "You're going to Camp Kearns." I said, "Oh, no, not Utah again!" Camp Kearns was a relocation reloca-tion camp, so I was there only a little while, and then I was sent to India, where I drove a gasoline truck to take gas to Dum Dum Air Force Base, out of Calcutta. We had to drive at night, with no lights blind. We used the sky for lights, because the Japanese were bombing the Lido Road. The only time we got good food was when we went to Calcutta, where we stayed in the Grand Hotel. The hotel couldn't be segregated, because right over close to the fence was the Japanese geisha girls, waitin' for your money. In 1944, 1 came back to Camp Kearns. I was a regular MP in town. There were pretty close to a thousand Blacks at the camp at that time. In July 1946, 1 went on a 45-day 45-day leave back to my family in Alabama. When I came back to Utah and got off the train, there were some MFs. They said, "Load up. We're going to Camp Kearns to get your belongings." I asked, "What's happened?" They said, "Camp Kearns is closed. You're going to be the last soldier to leave there." So we drove to Camp Kearns, Ke-arns, got my footlocker and duffle bag, and loaded them in two Jeeps. Then I closed and padlocked the gate. I was the last soldier in Camp Kearns. Next week: Racial prejudice in Utah, and a race riot at Camp Kearns.
