Carl D Baldwin

Military

Ops clerks in the control tower kept track of each flyer and of each crew. He replaced a flyer when the doctor grounded, trying to replace him with a flyer so a crew would all finish at the same time. Bother Tower and Ops assignments were on 24 hour duty with swing shifts in effect. Carl reminds everyone not to forget KP the potatoes got smaller each day!!
