¶5PER CURIAM:

¶6The United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida dismissed the complaint of the plaintiff-appellant, Gallizzi, against certain em*1214ployees and former employees at the Veterans Administration Center at Bay Pines, Florida.1 It is difficult to discern any logical or reasonable meaning from the allegations of the plaintiff’s complaint, but at best it appears to be frivolous and plainly barred by the doctrine of official immunity as set forth in a number of cases. See Barr v. Matteo, 360 U.S. 564, 79 S.Ct. 1335, 3 L.Ed.2d 1434 (1959); Norton v. McShane, 332 F.2d 855 (5th Cir. 1964), cert. denied, 380 U.S. 981, 85 S.Ct. 1345, 14 L.Ed.2d 274; United States v. Faneca, 332 F.2d 872 (5th Cir. 1964).

¶7In our opinion the appeal is frivolous and the same is hereby dismissed.
