ALAN KISTLER SETS OUT
FOR FORT SILL, OKLAHOMA
FOR YEAR OF TRAINING -
The Post will expect to have
first hand news from Oklahoma
for the coming year, for our
own: Alan Kistler was headed
for Fort Sill when we received
a card from him this week:
“Was in Camp Meade, Mary-
land, for four days. How did you
make out on Thursday even-
ing—I was thinking about you.
Right now I'm on a sleeper
bound for Fort Sill, Oklahoma.
This will be my address for a
year. If you can, will you send
me The Post? This will give
me some news of the home
town: I didn’t expect to go so
far from home, but will have
to make the best of it.”
Alan, who has been engaged
as printer at The Post for the
past four years, left two weeks
ago for a year of selective ser-
vice. We thought of him on
Thursday night too (our publi-
cation night)—and we missed
him.
