Eight Ball was a male burro about three years old. He came into Camp Bouse during WWII and soon became the mascot of the camp and soldiers. He was very tame and friendly and the troops were very fond of him.

"In Memory of Eight Ball Moral Officer
Equus asinus
Camp Bouse
He was our drinking buddy
While on duty
He drank our beer
He was
Full of good Cheer
And went to the nurses' quarters around the bend
And came to an untimely end,
Of the Colonel, he was unaware
That it would be the crime of all time
If he ate the nurses' underwear
And was slain by
The jealous rival
Rest in peace
Dedicated 2/12/2005
By the Lost Dutchman & Billy Holcomb Chapter of ECV
And the Citizens of Bouse."
