A Cockroach in my Egg!!

Transcript

I remember one time in Moncton, there was a flight sergeant that was in charge of the mess and I found a cockroach in my egg in the bottom one morning, and I really threw a fit, and he had it in for me for a long time too and that but I won, yeah. He wanted me to scrub the kitchen because I had been... and I told him he could do it himself and he tried to get me more or less thrown out. He made a real stink of it, you know. And I told the CO all about it and that was the end of it. Who wants a cockroach under their egg?

Description

Mrs. Hubbard talks about her dissatisfaction towards a flight lieutenant and, as a result, finding a cockroach in her egg!

Shirley Hubbard

Mrs. Shirley Hubbard was born in St. Clair, Michigan January 4, 1924. Her family moved to Canada and her father served in WWI. Having a keen desire to honour her father’s commitment, and without reservation, she joined the Women’s Division, Royal Canadian Air Force and had the opportunity to travel overseas and serve in London, England. Mrs. Hubbard served in an administrative role but believes her most important contribution to wartime service was visiting and caring for the burn victims of East Grinstead Hospital in London, England. These soldiers would later be known as “The Guinea Pigs.” It is here that she met her husband and became a dedicated member of the Guniea Pig Club. To this day, she remains a proud member of this association. She spends most of her time doing volunteer work and presently resides in Mission, BC with her family.
