Important Announcements
Several USArmy personnel have been promoted this week, but tonight's Friday Fright Night lineup is so huge-- four full hours of family entertainment -- that we've decided to postpone the public announcement and presentation to a future edition of this newspaper, when we can dedicate our full attention to honoring these hard working soldiers for their achievements.



Today we are at Fort Polk, Louisiana, where the Army joins personnel from all military branches and civilian control to aid the people of the Mississippi flood zone in evacuation and rescue operations.

Tonight's entertainment lineup was suggested by 2-clicking civilian Zheng He.
A retired USCavarlyman, I remember him best as a fledgling Platoon CO in my old 25th Tropic Lightning Division of the USArmy. His newspaper, the 2-Clicker Morning Coffee was, in active times, one of my favorite publications.
Congratulations, Zheng He, on winning one Q5 Tank and o.5 Gold, for sending in tonight's entire, complete entertainment lineup.

And finally, a distinguished, retired USAirborne officer and Ultramarine fighter has retired from eRepublik, posting a Shout that he would be divesting himself of all assets. I was honored to have been granted a substantial portion of his funds and goods, and dedicate them to The Army Times' USArmy Rec Hall Reward Program.
Thank you, TheSpartan, you will be missed on the eUSA battlefields and by your comrades in arms, and we wish you well in the real world.

Tonight we present a triple feature, plus two cartoons, and a feature short you're sure to enjoy. We spotlight the great horror film icon, Bela Lugosi, and our final film of the night is a cult classic by actor, writer and director Ed Wood.

Well, I see that the barbecues are loaded and hot dogs are ready, and the kegs have been tapped, so it must be time to start the show! Please be careful as you make your way around the field, don't step on anyone or spill their beer, and please clean up your area as you pack out tonight.

Enjoy the show, folks!

You Asked For It was a 1950s TV show which invited viewers to request to be shown some act of bravery, scientific wonder, or other entertainment. This is a rare TV appearance for Bela Lugosi.


Ed Wood is undoubtedly the most well known of B movie directors.
