Airman Granville Bonney, 23, and his GI-bride, Berta, 20, find coffee and milk just the thing for a New Year's toast after their other headaches. Both flew here from Germany -- on separate planes -- and went just about crazy before he finally found her, of all places, at Fort Hamilton Army Base in Brooklyn. When she got off her plane an Army GI directed her to the base instead of the agreed hotel she had asked about in her broken English. Bonney is a farm boy from Gorham, Me., and hopes to set himself up on his own farm on a GI loan.
