Pin-up girl of all pin-up girls, Betty Grable
was the favorite among US soldiers during World War II .
If I did not mistake !!
I adore her. I like watching all his flims
Especially in how to marry a millionaire with Lauren Bacall and Marilyn Monroe

I'm willing to bet that after 4 months on the battlefield you might have a hard time choosing between any of those women and Ma Kettle with a skillet of fried chicken and a fresh baked pie.....There's a name I bet you havent heard in a while

I had fried chicken ONCE, but I had to go out and kill it. (M1). It wasn't Ma Kettle
it was my buddy, Ken Ryan. Rocky ![]()

It does tend to lose some of it's charm if you have to kill it....but when it's well made, there is nothing quiete like it.
I wonder if Ken Ryan was better looking than Ma Kettle....

Big story goes about that chicken. Don't know about you, but after eating
cold c-rationsthat chicken tasted better than a t-bone steak. Ken was from
Okla. He knew how to skin a chicken and cook it. He and I went thru hell
together. Rocky

Cant help but wonder how long it took Europe to get back their chicken stock. God knows we must have eaten most of them during the war. And enjoyed them.
