A short distance from our hut, the " 8-Ball" in the 359th, there was a large
pasture which was fenced in, but do not recall farm animals. There were alot
of rabbits that became targets for our 45'. Higher up frowned on this
practice, but is was safer then some in boredomn would shoot out the
overhead light rather than get up and turn of the switch.
