WORD SUGGESTIONS
Following some duty overseas, the officers at the Fort were planning a welcome home party and dance for the unit.

The Captain called Vassar and was assured by the Dean that arrangements could be made to send over a dozen of their most trustworthy students. The Captain hesitated, then said, "Would it also be possible to send a dozen or so of the other kind?"
