Description

An untitled drinking song sang to the tune of "Tramp Tramp Tramp the Boys" from a handbound journal compiled by Capt. Richard Sanderson, a flight surgeon with the 400^th Squadron of the 90th Bombardment Group. The 90th was also known as the Jolly Rogers. First organized at Key Field in Mississippi in April 1942, the 90th B.G. flew out of bases in Australia and New Guinea until VJ Day and after that transported Allied prisoners from Okinawa to Manila, until November 1945, when it ceased operations.
