Show Navy Yeoman Fills Up After Long Stay Abroad DETROIT. Navy Yeoman Tom Bernard, of the "Stars and Stripes" staff, landed in the United States recently after 16 months in the British Brit-ish Isles and 16 months of lend-lease Spam, Brussel sprouts and vegetable vegeta-ble greens. Bernard's first official act was to down a quart of orange juice which was closely followed by a half-dozen eggs. (One cold storage stor-age egg a month is allowed in England.) Eng-land.) Not satisfied with the almost al-most "foreign" eggs and orange juice, the reporter put away eight large meals (mostly steak) between noon and 10 p. m. his first day at home. However, it was the ten milkshakes, milk-shakes, sundaes and sodas in between be-tween meals which made his homecoming home-coming complete. |
