I asked Mrs. Qurrashahi about the "Mullah". She said the caller is called a "Mozan" and the call for prayer "Azan".
In the evening I went to Wm. O.
Halla's residence, Deputy Chief of Mission, for a party. The affair was for military personnel - all high brass - air force,
navy, army, evidently U.S. people
brought from London to this area for
familiarization with the Ocean setting --
I presume, should the command shift
to this area. Some 50 people present - all
men. Only about 5% were local
military, including some Pakistanis.
Met a Capt C. B. Collins, U.S.N.,
who had had WW II experience on a
destroyer, He was sunk at
The Solomons & lost over 50 men.
His son is interested in math and is
in the American school - a boy of 15.
Collins is on the school board.
