...that direction is represented by the multilateral force (MLF), a clumsy concept loved by no soldier, which foresees a boat in some distant sea with a Russia-aimed bomb on board. At the throttle is a German and at the rudder a Briton. Luxembourgeois, Belgians and Dutchmen run the galley, and a Frenchman (if he can be enticed on board at all) is topside yelling "to port" while an Italian beside him shouts "to starboard." Use of the Bomb itself would happen only on U.S. orders. To Gaullists, U.S. insistence on a seaborne MLF, rather than one based on solid...
...fourth floor of a building-the TU-114 is around 40 ft. high when standing on the ground. Inside the hatch, cabin follows cabin: a crew compartment; a large compartment empty of everything but a few suitcases, food hampers and cases of soft drinks; a serving pantry, with a galley down a flight of steps on a lower level.

...other Texas boatmen are never threatened by such violence. So enticing is marina living that they never leave the slip all weekend long, as they sun on the boat deck, swim off the stern, and cook in the galley. To add to their comfort. Lake Texoma port authorities have come up with a novel, congenial, and undemanding way of fishing: the "Fisharena." This is a huge building built out over the lake, with a circular hole cut into the floor so that 500 anglers can fish the waters below at one time. In true Texas style, the Fisharena is heated...
