BATAVIA, JAN "a (Aneta to (41).
Its still hard to believe that I
survived that experience in which
all my mates lost their lives. The
night it happened we were cruising
on the surface to investigate light
on the horizon. There were six OF
us in the coming tower, our cap
tain, myself and four other officers.
Suddenly a blast seemed 10 lift
the sub out of the water and all six
of us were hurled into the water.
Stunned by the explosion but for
tunately uninjured, I began to swim
around looking for the others. The
captain had vanished. but the other
four officers were still with me and
able to swim. We started swimming
according to directions we hao re-
ceived from our captain in case OF
emergency.
All of us were driven on by the
frightening knowledge that all the
dark water around us was infested
by sharks. We rid ourselves Of
clothes. After IL hours three of tie
men had to give up exhausted and
sank below the waves. The other
officer and I could give them no as
sistance because we ourselves were
desperately tired. A few hours later
he, too, was swallowed up by the
sea.
In Water 35 Hours.
I had now been in the water ID

arms ached and I was desperately

figure.

lain half conscious, but eventually
was able to stumble forward. After
several hours of this painful walk
