“Georgie s going to walk down to the Oval Office with me,” Dick said.
“I just hope you got him all good and ready this time,” Rummy said.
“Hush now,” Dick said. “This aint no laughing matter. He know lot more than folks think.” Dick patted me on the back good and hard. “Come on now, Georgie,” Dick said. “Never mind you, Rummy.”
The Mainichi Daily News isn’t a good paper. It’s hard to call it a paper, some days. But its website is running some great content now: scanned front pages from 60 years ago. Interesting stuff on the brave soldiers fighting for Nippon, and the enemy naval force appearing off of Shikoku, and the battle on Puket (sic) island. The most recent article (7/27) is right here. The full-size scan is available here, and you can get the one from the previous day at this link. Worth taking a look at (as are all the photos available on this page).
EDIT: Just noticed that the 7/28 front page is also up.
