January 75

2. Col McMonigle returns from CONUS.

4. Buffs in the Buff Party - even Diane. Probably Stu's idea, as usual. He evidently likes to run around in the Buff.

7. Hooch Bar closed by Base Commander. Jollys begin to "maintain low profile"

8. Belk catches Freedom Bird today.

Servo Joe turns down another A/C with stick jumps. Maintenance cannot duplicate.

9. Jollys are MALPing.

11. Jolly Green restaurant & whorehouse (Blue Hawaii) open for business. First night was successful.

12. Jollys @ NKP alerted for possible mission 600+ miles south (down by Surat Thani) to aid Thai flood victims. Finally get to do what were suppose to.

13. Jollys still ready to go.

12:00 noon Jollys are no longer a Rescue Unit. Knives are in Doppler hold to go in our place.

Nawoj (Pedro) on the silver samlar. Going to Zaragoza, Spain in UH-1N's

17. Hooch bar reopened. Jake the Snake returns from leave without his cookie duster.

21. Vallimont's Raffle - He rakes in $12-15 from as many squadron suckers.

24. Jolly's 32 & 62 returning from Ubon are dirverted to CH89 210/24 to aid in SAR for crashed Dusty. Wreckage sighted - no survivors. J.G. 32 returned to CH89 with one body, J.G. 62 with 3.

25. Sawadee for Buchanan & Foulois. 4 cases of beer & 7 quarts of booze consumed in 3 hours. Many people took hits at this party. Col Trapp is finding out that the Jollys don't stutter. He also runs over a green porcupine on his way to the WAF barracks with Thunder Thighs. Whiskey WAF is initiated, traditionally of course.

26. Foulois (Feable Phalace) on the samlar today. Back to the world and Eglin. Will be working there in F-4 unit. Break, Break. It looks like T2 is in love with Maggie, either that or he thinks he's here pet puppy.

31. "Whiskey Front" moved in abot 1800 & became stationary. Many drunk souls tonight. Hooch bar under 1-2" of water about 2300. "The Bell" is returned by the Knives.
