Had malaria twice in Southern Italy. Laid on a strecher for three days and the nurse
piled blankets on me and all they had to give was atebrine and quinine tablets. When I was released I went back UP to my unit following a mule train. Mosquitoes in Italy were like dive
bombers and I swear they carried bayonets. There is a story on my page how my buddy from
Oklahoma controled them. RJR
