Where did you acquire this bizarre, glorified view of Bowmann? Next you'll be telling us that Hitler wasn't such a bad guy either.

Bare feet were the norm all summer and in the house 12 months out of the year. He missed one year of school because he had grown so much that summer that he had no shoes. Smoking jacket!!??? This man has never owned a bathrobe for the same reason he has never owned slippers. Never had one in the past, and can see no reason to buy one now! Country bumpkin? Oh yes, and one who answered his nation's call to duty in World War 2 in the Army Air Force. His familiarity with a rifle while shooting rabbits, pheasants, and geese to put food in their stomachs in the lean times, earned him the Top Ace rating in his battalion in boot camp. Smoking jackets and slippers might appeal to fops and dandies, but not to a man's man like mr. ale. And I am proud of him.
You must have known He was a Bohemian when you married Him, He must look damn silly in His smoking jacket 'n' no slippers.
