Ragazine reports that the The

dressing. Once I get ‘em in the closet…”

Pages 21-23: Joe Sr. learns that Jack is romantically involved with
married Danish national Inga Arvard (whom Jack refers to as “Inga
Binga”), a woman that J. Edgar Hoover reports has “been linked to
counterintelligence activities in Washington on behalf of the German
government.” When Jack refuses to break off relations with Arvard, Joe
Sr. has Jack shipped overseas after placing a call to the secretary of
the Navy. [Tell
