back in the USA September, 1960 |
I arrived at the large McQuireAFB in NJ on Sep 1, 1960 and made my way to Boston, where I stayed in Hotel Copley. The next day, I completed my business at Woods Hole: when the business manager asked me for my expense account for August, I told him I spent 75 cents on lunch in Copenhagen, but that in Holland I had stayed with my parents and not spent anything. He burst out laughing and I had to bargain him down to a $ 8 per diem so as not to upset the system's applecart. I said my goodbyes and thank you's, including to an old new friend, Richard Field.
Somehow I also got hold of Dorothy Pocock
