We went to the old French quarter for dinner and it was as good eating as it claimed for it. I had grilled trout.
Then we walked around looking at historical spots and then to a night club- where, nothing daunted, we danced in slacks until 2 A.M. when we returned to the field.
We loaded in Houston at 6 A.M. and immediately confiscated the benches and fell asleep. We looked like the county morgue. I slept an hour and then ate with some of the fellows and there talked to the girls who are in training there to be future WASP (they hope) there are about 200 there now and in 4 classes. The top class is in Bt’s now and will go on up before long (but we will be too) they won’t finish before may I guess.
