Dental Work Just Like Home When Captain Eber Suitcase Simpson of 321 McKinley Avenue, Eau Claire, WI, veteran P-47 pilot with the Ninth Air Force, reported to the Army Air Forces Redistribution Station No. 1 for his new assignment and went to the dental clinic to have his teeth fixed, he met his former dentist of civilian days, Major Herbert Grewe, also of Eau Claire. Needless to say, there was lots of reminiscing between these two old friends. Captain Simpson flew 102 missions with the Ninth Army Air Force and wears the Distinguished Flying Cross and the Air Medal with 18 clusters for his service overseas.
