Look me up if you are over at the park!Webmaster, Loring Remembers Added Nuclear Incidents to the Reading Room The End of the Goat (By Robert Zellner)During the summer of 1954, General Harrison started a competition between the wing squadrons based on performance, inspections and other criteria. The poorest squadron got a goat and had to keep him for a month. He was a big, handsome ram. One day soon after the losing squadron got the goat (I won't mention which squadron except to say it was not the A&E squadron) he appeard on the lawn outside the barracks, dead. The base vet performed a necroscopy and it turned out he was drowned. The poorest performing airman in the squadron was assigned to take care of the goat, and after a few days he stuffed the goat head first into a mop sink and killed him. I never heard what happened to the airman. but I don't imagine he was around much longer. This is absolutely a true story. Contact Bob at rozellner@msn.com |
