I'm glad that someone has put Service's Poems to music.

I started out to a couple of time, and had a pretty good one going for "McGrew", too - but never wrote it down.

Remember that Alaskan Songwriter "Patty" something I think, who wrote ".30 U.S. On The Wall" in the 1930s?

Unable to get ahold of the original score, I just up and wrote my own - and I kinda like it, actually.

It's one of those tunes that I really think Kendall Morse could do a lot better than I can, and hope to get to run it by him some time.

My Daughter, a Wildlife Biologist and Artist here in Maine, is a big Service fan.
