Seattle (jP)—The first casual
ties to come out of the fog-wrap

northwest hospital and agreed
that fighting the Japanese would
not be so bad if they c^uld see
them.
Eight men arrived by boat and
ail but three were listed as sick
ness cases. They told interview
ers how they went ashore at
Massacre bay in the second wave
after the initial May li landing
without encountering enemy fire.
They told of sludging along with
heavy packs through mud and
snow. It was cold and damp, and
fog hid the snow-covered peaks.

landing barges like a bunch of
collegians coming out of a foot
