What Are the Odds?

Chester — One cadet I hosted this 
year,  who  was  pretty  detail-oriented 
with his equipment, left his issued camera behind at a crime scene as Deputy 
Tom  Clifford,  the  cadet  and  I  drove 
to  a  restaurant  10  miles  away  in  two 
vehicles. The cadet commented as we 
drove that he couldn’t find his camera, 
as he reached in his jacket and pants 
pockets.  I  assured  him  that  he  must 
have  placed it on the back  seat with 
the collected evidence. When we got 
out at the restaurant and I exited the 
passenger side of the vehicle I noticed 
Tom pull in beside us and then noticed 
the  cadet’s  camera  on  the  bumper  of 
Tom’s truck. I advised the cadet to stop 
looking in the back seat for his camera 
and to look at Tom’s truck. The word 
“miracle” was uttered excitedly several 
times for the next several minutes. It 
truly was a miracle that his camera was 
on that bumper and not on the road in 
a million pieces.

Meant Business

northumberland/montour — My 
3-year-old granddaughter, Grace, was 
a little upset with me when she came 
to me for help with a problem. Seems 
she  and  her  mother  had  Indian  corn 
out for decoration in the front of their 
home in Bloomsburg. Every morning, 
Grace would wake up to find another 
ear of corn missing until only one was 
left. Then one day Grace spotted the 
thieves and demanded justice from me. 
I  laughed  when  I  found  out  squirrels 
had been stealing the corn, and Grace 
looked  at  me  real  serious  and  said, 
“Pappy, it’s not funny; this is war!”

Most Popular Section

t raining s Chool — During  the 
holiday  party  at  the  Game  Commission’s Harrisburg headquarters I noticed 
a pile of old Game News issues that were 
opened and stacked on the sink in the 
men’s restroom. Intrigued, I decided to 
look at what articles they were opened 
to and to my surprise every single one 
was opened to the Field Notes section. 
Everyone enjoys Field Notes, wherever 
they are read.
— Cadet JeFFrey d. OleniaCz,
HarriSburg

That’s Debatable

snyder — As a field training officer, 
I get the privilege of helping new officers learn the job of a WCO. While 
doing paperwork on a rainy day we had 
to complete a bear capture/kill report. 
This form can be typed or handwritten, 
but I usually type mine because of my 
handwriting. I uncovered my dinosaur 
(typewriter),  and  had  to  explain  to 
my cadet how to use it. Cadet Zaffuto 
mentioned  he  had  seen  them,  at  flea 
markets and antique shops. I guess, being I’m only 40, that makes me a classic 
not an antique.
