482nd F.I.S.:

A/2C Lynn Markley
aka "Mouse"

1959. Lynn was from Kansas City. We ran together as often as Mouse could stand having me around. Good ping-pong player. Given to doing strange things. (I should talk.) Most of us have looked high and low for Mouse over the years but nobody had heard from him. My last attempt turned him up in Colorado Springs (not dead or in prison), where he is well, married, and angles in bass tournaments as a hobby. Computer enabled.

I brought back a car in 1959 and Mouse helped me change brushes in the starter over at Motor Pool. The first thing he did when we got it off was drop it in a bucket of solvent. That's the most angry I ever became with him.
