MP Comedian
Emcees Off-Duty
The old saying about unfriendly
military policemen suffers a sharp
set back in the person of PFC Herb
Moglin a professional comic em­
cee and entertainer assigned to the
501st MP Co.
A natural ad-lib comic with a
wealth of story material the police­
man has been emceeing the Sat­
urday night floor shows at the Kil­
leen USO's Co-Co-Nut Club for the
past several months.
The 21-year-old native of The
Bronx N. Y. got his start in the
quip and gag business in the fam­
ous "Borscht Belt" the night clubs
of the numerous summer hotels in
the Catskill Mountains of New
York. Spawned there were such
comics as Danny Kaye Jerry Lew­
is Milton Berle and Sid Caesar.
WORKED AS WAITER
When he was a 16-year-old high
school student working as waiter
during the summer Moglin heard
that a job was open at one of the
resorts as an emcee and "social
director." With his typical brash-
ness he applied for the job that
called for previous experience he
didn't have—and got the job.
After that it was as Moglin puts
it "Four seasons of knocking your­
self out with four shows on Satur­
day night and the rest of the week
—nothing!"
By the time he was drafted Mog­
lin had his "Borscht Circuit" ex­
perience plus bits at night clubs in
and around New York. This he put
to good use during basic training
at Ft. Jackson S. C. where he
emceed shows several times a
month at the Columbia S. C. USO
and continued his entertaining at
the Killeen Club when he was trans­
ferred to Hood last July.
NCO GRADUATION TOMORROW
A patrolman for the 501st be­
fore entering the radio repair
course at the NCO Academy from
which he graduates tomorrow. Mog­
lin throws his stocky 5 foot 10 inch
frame and his freckled expressive
face into all of his jokes and story
telling.
One of his favorite tales is prob­
ably more fiction that fact but he
tells it this way:
"During basic I wanted to go
into town and I got a special pass
—seven minutes. It took longer to
wait for the bus.
"Finally I got to the dance in
town that was well attended by
40000 guys and six girls. But I
got the prettiest girl there She
looked like a hockey stick with
hair.
"She was beautiful. And such
nice even teeth. It wasn't until four
weeks later that I found out that
they were 'Chicklets.'

provided him with a barrel full of
gagster material most of it pok­
ing good natured fun at military
situations. For instance he ex­
plains why KPs are sometimes un­
happy: "They get up an hour earl­
ier for the same pay."
With all of his clowning Moglin
has his serious side and plans to
attend college in quest of a law
degree after his present Ax-my serv­
ice is completed. He hopes to em­
cee and be a disc jockey while at
college to help himself financially
and as he puts it "for kicks."
