Post; Talk About a Lightweight...


DURING WORLD WAR II, I was sent to the U.S. Navy's training and distribution center in Shoemaker, Calif., where we awaited assignment to the South Pacific theater. The sleeping conditions were less than perfect. In fact, the bunks were infested with bedbugs.

These little creatures appeared after lights out, and they provoked much cursing and slapping at the blankets. One night, a man who had barely met the military's minimum height and weight requirements cried out, "Put me down!"
