“A little joy to some children of your brave fliers” A 13year-olGerman school girl spokesman presented right boxes of small toys along with a letter of gratitude The letter addresed to “Sir Colonel”

all of which are being hahdled by women’s groups in Frankfurt “We are so far away from Berlin it is difficult to visualize conditions there and the importance of what is now going on We are not at war and yet perhaps one of the most important battles of all time is going on in Berlin At the same time it is important to remember Berlin is not the issue but merely an Incident If we win this battle there will be an end to conflict However an American retreat there may be disastrous” “Lieutenant Halvorsen is doing his full share on “Operations Little Vittles What he did in originating and how he is doing in operating ‘Little Vittles’ is entirely extra curricular and unofficial but it is one of the important parts of our Campaign for good will in Germany Recently the children of Berlin held what they called “Lieutenant Halvorsen Day’— but it wa hardly that for they all called him ‘Uncle Sam’ and ‘Santa Claus' On this occasion they children presented Lieutenant Halvorsen with flowers and
