Sesame Count at Camp

At this camp there were two log cabins for the males on staff that housed four bunk beds and a wood stove in each cabin. Then there were four smaller log cabins, three for the females on staff that housed two bunk beds and a wood stove in each cabin. The forth cabin was the First Aid Post that was divided by a curtain down the middle and housed the medical inspection room on one side, and a single bed and wood stove on the other side for the medical person.
There was a large kitchen, a one person solar shower, and a very large cabin that housed the CO and a class room. Other than out-houses those were the only buildings. The all slept in four person tents.

Now picture this. It was lights out and the were all settled in their tents. Duty staff were sitting at the end of the wood sidewalks waiting for the ankle bitters to drop off to sleep.

From one of the tents came a loud slap and a voice said "one, one dead mosquito, ah ah ah."

All was quite again.

Then came another loud slap and the same voice said "two, two dead mosquito's. ah ah ah."

All was quite again.

Then came the slap and the same voice saying "three, three dead mosquito's, ah ah ah."

This went on to eight dead mosquito's and then one of the duty staff said " I don't know who that is, but you had better shut up and get to sleep."

All was quite for a short period, then came that same voice with "one, one mad instructor, ah ah ah." and the Camp Count went to sleep.
