KANSAS TWISTERS
On the North African front, ac
cording to a story going the rounds,
a big, raw-boned Yankee sergeant
was herding a batch of German pris
oners to the rear. On the face of
one of the heinies, a blustering, sput
tering officer, there was a look
of extreme bewilderment.
“I cannot understand it,” he ex
claimed. “These are Rommel’s
storm troops.”
“Storm troops, eh!” rejoined the
Yankee. “I’m from Kansas, where
they raise cyclones.”
