In some US Army Advisory bases, pets often gave the men a much needed distraction from the demands of their duties. In this case, two monkeys are brought together in a carefully coordinated marriage ceremony to the delight of all on the base. Charlie, an Army monkey and Victoria, an Air Force monkey are soon to be Mr. and Mrs. Charlie Fink with the blessings of two presiding Colonels. Victoria was flown in especially for the occasion and the two newlyweds sealed the deal with paw prints on a certificate of marriage. Charlie and Victoria soon become local celebrities and many troops would often pay them a visit on their way through the base.
