For the ASTP these songs prove that soldiers can still gripe even humorously and in a song. Tune: Air Corps song. Off we go into a filled up TO Idaho out In the sticks Here we are victims of the ASTP We're in one helluva fix.

I left my hopes with the ASTP. I thought that they would commis sion me. I worked, I slaved, I studied, My work was never done. And it was all for nothing, not even for fun. My hopes are still with the ASTP. But hopes are all that thev'll ever be; Those eolden bars are not for me. My hopes died with the ASTP. 9-12, Fri., Mor. 3 Uni Raaaaaanapvj ion Ballroom Union-Army Francis Eisworth's Bond & Refreshments 9-12, Sot., Mor. 4 UNION BALLROOM Come Alone or With a Date on otm THIRD FI.f Al l.
