 Wow.. its been a while since I posted last. I was talking to someone about the visit of Jimmy Cagney to the camp in the winter of 1944.    He was accompanied by a United Artists starlet called Pat Starling.  I didn't have much info on her, but have today found a site where someone has researched her.  Looks like she was only about 18 when she came over with the ETO as a 'pin up girl' to entertain the troops. She did about 15 films (mostly cowboy films) after the war. I also found that she had signed the camp visitor register which I got a copy of a few years back.
