Bendix, wearing such a suit was brought in from location by a Ma- rine offficers friend of his. The offi- {cer let him cut at his hotel and |drove on. As Bill was entering the Marine sergeant accosted i | | | hetel, him. “What are you doing off the post in those clothes?” demanded the ser- geant “Well,” replied Bendix, “I'm not a 'Marine. I'm working on . .." | “Don't give me any of that,” snap- ped the sergeant, “I've seen that map of yours around the barracks a thousand times " And went on to give Bill a pretty forceful descrip- tion of the way members of the Corps, look, act and dress as op- posed to Bill's appearance gnd con- duct. Eventually the sergeant ran out of breath and Bill got in his ex- planation, and a visit to the hotel taproom laid the foundation of a beautiful friendship. However, Dir- ector Lewis Seiler, hearing of the in- cident, decided that members of his company shall not in the future wear their Marine clothes off the iset. “Guadalcanal Diary” is currently being shown at the 20th Century.
