Hey, fellas, before you write that white hot take about how rape is such a tricky thing and, I mean, who can really say what happened and, you know, maybe we should not be too judgmental, I'd like to remind you that instead you can simply shut the fuck up.

His stage name is Melvyn Brooks. His last appearance before entering the Army was in the play, "Bright Boy", so he says, and he adds: "l had three lines in that show, was on the stage about two min-utes, what a part!"
A member of the Combat Engineers before coming to Dix,
Kaminsky expects to be discharged in June.
