On the Skirmish Line.

At Camp Grant several kitchen police had considerable sport with a rookie who was assisting In the peeling of potatoes for noon mess, when they persuaded the chef to ask this chap to go over to a neighboring barracks and borrow from the mess sergeant several yards of skirmish line on which to dry some dish cloths just washed out. He returned with a neatly wrapped parcel containing some white thread.
