occur.

needed to fill the vacancies.

Those who were brave enough to
try and dance the "Tinikling" had
some extra fun.
Tinikling is one of the Phil-
ippines' most exciting folk dan-
ces. The name was derived from a
long-legged bird called Tikling.

Due to the large influx of
personnel during the summer, Col
Glendon K. Dunaway, Iceland De-
fense Force Chief of Staff, has
reiterated the purpose and limi-
tations of the Temporary Lodging

According to Col Dunaway, el^^^
gible persons are normally al^V
thorized TLA for a ten day period
following the arrival of their
families in Iceland. Under cer-
tain circumstances this period
may be extended, however.
For this and other reasons,
commands will normally not au-
thorize entry approval for depen-
dents until it is reasonably cer-
tain that housing will be availj^^
ble for them soon after
arrive.
