WHILE I WAS in Waco basic training at Fort Des Moines, Iowa, I received an encouraging note from a neighbor back home. A refugee from Russia, he hadn't quite mastered the intricacies of the English language. He apparently had been introduced to the term "buck private," because, much to my barracks mates' amusement, the letter was addressed to Doe Private Mary Duff.
