The Sun beamed Down on a Gay and colourful crowd at Churchill Downs in Louisville a crowd waiting Lor the tunning of the world famous Kentucky Derby at the Post two of the Days favorite jockeys were aboard i their horses which nervously pranced waiting the starting gun a few Short minutes Belore the it stud speaker had announced that j Howard l. Fisher would be up on head Flay and Don Meade up on brokers tip the spectators waited anxiously for the Barrier to be sprung that would carry into this race the grudge that existed be Iween the two hard Riding jockeys. And they were not disappointed from the Start the race Between the two was practically neck and neck with both jockeys crowding their horses into one another throughout the race. Brokers tip Aith Meade aboard won by two feet but both jockeys had carried their feud too far. They were suspended the following week however.

There were about half a dozen radio operators on the mid watch and we were sitting around talking and drinking of Lee while we worked. Then around 4 am. All of a sudden. I general quarters was sounded it was still pitch dark. Tile whole1 ship came to life with a Scurry and a rattling. Sailors Wert dashing to their stations before you d have thought they i could have got their shoes on shooting was already around the Harbor o tills time it was real. I kept on with  work and the radio operators did too. Or 11 i time we tried to work so Many i people were going in and out of the radio Shack that we wire in d irk Ness Hall of the time so tip a tic lights automatically go off win ii the door is 0 ened terrific blast and then the biggest guns on our fillip opened up. They made such a horrifying blast that i thought we had been hit by a bomb Wien the firs one went off. At every blast from the big guns a a Cloud of soot dust and debris would come scuttling Down from the ceiling and smear everything up nearby bombs Shook us up too. One by one the electric Light bulbs were broken. The thick steel Walls of the Cabin Shook and rattled As though they were tin. The entire a cd sri shivered under each blast. Except in practice. And because of this they had been very sober and a Little unsure and More than a Little i rued about the invasion ordeal that Lay so near ahead it them. But then All within an hour and a half they became veterans. Their Cal went up like one of those shooting graph lines in the movies when business is Good. Serious game boys who had been All Bumble fit igers wire loading shells like machinery after 15 minutes when it became real. Boys who previously had gone through their temmies life Lessly were now veiling with bitter seriousness u inn la can t you pass those shells Laster a Clews were furious when the control officer made them hold their fire. The gunnery officer making his official report to the Captain. Did it Iii these robustly words sir we got  one of  friends is Norman Somberg third class of 1448 Northwest find sleet Miami Fla. We had been talking the Day before and he told  How he had gone two years to the University of Georgia and How he was interested in journalism and wanted to get in to it after the War. And i noticed he added if i live that  but just at Dawn just As the raid was ending he came steaming up to  and said Quot did you see that one go Down smoking boy ii i could get off the train in Miami right now and  folks land  girl there to meet  i Enol filial the Minna Abo Artl ship Aero Grapher a in   Gin wine 6u meet  i Zzz j,uu7 7 Sll f it Oigt Klinl to any happier than when a i were All shooting.

All Day Long the sailors went a rained Down on rabble gabble to each other Tell to Al decks making a terrific Elal f or. Ibis thing went on tor an hour Bel a half. When it was All Over and we added things up it was found that four planes had been Mot Down. One Sailor killed and a couple dozen wounded around  at  How they did it what they saw what they thought. Alter that raid a great part of their inherent reluctance to go into action vanished. Their guns had become their pals the War became real the enemy had come alive for them and they did t fear it fun Bor area and no damage so much anymore. All done to the ships except j the Crew of sailors had just Ibyle holes from near misses. I gone through what hundreds of i Bree of the men on our ship thousands of other soldiers and vim wounded but Best of All we sailors have already experienced vim a cd wit shooting Down the conversion from peaceful peo Nalii a ,1p.

I most secret organizations and fraternities use secret signs for the Mutual recognition of minibus. The Salute is no Kow Tow out is something highly honorable and is j a True sign of a Good Soldier. I know that Many experienced off i eels who Are on tile watch for Good soldiers can Tell them instantly by the kind of Salute Given. Don t cheapen the Salute by having to be told about it. In working around officers too Many of us Are prone to become careless when going outside on the a reels. Maybe you have no love for the officer you meet but you act the part of a Soldier you would like him to be. You Are saluting the uniform and not the officer. That uniform came from Home the u. S. A. Remember that the officer or senior returns your Salute and must put More Effort into it than do for kind of Soldier that you Are.
