DlTROIUCTION The modern approach to nutrition is to realize that it is a complex affair in the social sense as well as the medical sense. The ordinary man is a farmer, and if his family is to eat better, he must grow more and better foods. In cities and towns, tlarents must learn to spend their cents as wisely as possible, and alw~s, parents need to know how to cater for the most vulnerable member of the family nutritionally; this usually means the youngest child. The new approach is best seen in applied nutrition projects. These begin with identification of the problem by surveys - not only of nutritional statuB and diets, but also of food production and availability, and existing supplementary feeding and nutrition education activities.

  • Pappy Boyington: the Final Interview
    Pappy Boyington: The Final Interview U.S. Marine ace Gregory "Pappy" Boyington is as well known for his flamboyant personality as for his flying skills. Interview by Colin Heaton for Aviation History Magazine Gregory “Pappy” Boyington, C.O. VFM 214, The Black Sheep Squadron Before the United States officially entered World War II, many young Americans volunteered to serve in foreign air arms. Whether flying for Britain in the Eagle Squadrons or in the American Volunteer Group supporting Chiang Kai-shek in China, those who served as fighter pilots were the spearhead of American intervention, and they quickly became folk heroes. One of the most colorful and controversial members of that unique fraternity was Gregory Boyington. Boyington discovered a new world in combat aviation after several years as an instructor pilot in the U.S. Marine Corps. The combat experience he accumulated over China and Burma was nearly wasted by a bureaucracy that failed to comprehend the necessities of the new war -- and was often willing to shelve talented individuals whose skills were sorely needed at the front. Boyington's methods of circumventing rules and regulations as well as his often outrageous personal conduct often proved that he was, as he admitted in retrospect, his "own worst enemy." Boyington ended the war with 24 aerial victories and earned the Medal of Honor. But his legend continued after the war came to a close. During the 1970s, actor Robert Conrad portrayed him in the television series Baa Baa Black Sheep (later renamed Black Sheep Squadron), making Greg Boyington and his Marine squadron, VMF-214, household names once again, despite some glaring distortions of historical fact and reality in the productions.

Monsieur le prévost : Par mes dernières je vous advertiz de la réception de voz lettres du dernier de febvrier, et hier je reçeuz celles des trois et quinziesme de ce mois; et par les dernières je veoiz que le lendemain vous debviez estre à Bruxelles, et ne vous plaignez de vostre bras, que me donne espoir que tout se porte bien, ou que du moings vous trouvez que le temps vous y donne allégement. Si seroit-il bien de faire venir vers vous le maistre de Herenthals 1 afin qu’il vous donne quelque chose qui peu à peu fortiflie les nerfz et resculle et resolve les humeurs que pour- roient avoir couru celle part. La deffaicte du Sr de Toulouse pourra beaulcoup servir, et si le second 5 estoit avec le premier (s’il ne se veult recognoistre) se seroit mieulx pour luy et pour sa maison à laquelle il pourroit faire plus grande honte. Et si l’on continue le chemin de envoyer sur les assemblées quant elles com- mancent, afin que l’on ne leur donne temps pour croistre, tout yra bien. Mais si l’on leur laisse prendre pied et qu’ilz viennent une fois à avoir la main dessus, tout yroit mal et sans remyde. Dieu doinct bon succès à ceulx qui sont sur Valenciennes; d’iceluy despend beaulcoup, et si est de très-grande impourtance la déclaration qu’a faict Monsr d’Egmond.
