2 U.S. Naval Air Station PENSACOLA, FLORIDA few years back when I first saw it. Have I yet told you about the keen competition for food at mess time? The fare is quite good, but a man should never step in the mess hall without warming up. He hasn't a chinaman's chance if he is inalert or if his reaction is slow. Also it is imperative that you choose your seat location with care. There are 24 men to a table and if you find yourself sitting in the middle you are lost. Everything moves toward one end or the other leaving the center men gnashing their teeth and vainly clamoring
