Natives Take Them
To Be Japanese

We weighed anchor again that
night and churned southwark. put
ting as many miles between us
and the Archipelago as possible.
We were more careful Of our
islands after that and we sailed
the japanese flag most of the time
instead of the American bunting.
When we made sorties ashore,
one of us would always remain
with the boat, covering the other
while he palavered with natives or
searched for water.
To many of the natives we met
in the lonely, isolated groups of
islands. we were the same as Japs.
They had seen the American and
Jap flags but they had never seen
people of either race.
In those waters il was a definite
asset TO leave the impression that
we were Nipponese. Once, under
cover of dusk. we sailed within zoo
yards of northbound Jap convoy
of two heavy cruisers and two
giant transports. We fervently
wished we had some torpedoes
aboard the Ruth Lee. 1t would
have been a sure kill.

Find Enemy Guns
Staring at Them

We set sail again early that eve
ming, bound for another island
group where we hoped to replenish
our food stocks. Two days later.
we reached the appointed spot and
sailed right in toward the harbor.
Lloyd was studying the shore with
binoculars. He grabbed me sud
denly.
Rocky. look over there" he
whispered.
1 looked and nearly froze at
what ] saw. Dozens of Jap gun
emplacements were staring us in
the face while beyond them we
could see the Nipponese flag flying
over a large enemy garrison. The
Ruth Lee almost spun on her keeI
as we left the harbor. We were
so tired and so sleepy we had al
most landed right into the Japs
hands.
The following day, we met a new
freak of Mother Nature - ont
which almost ruined our motor
sailer and provided us with nearly
an hour of breath-taking excite
ment.

Oceanic Phenomenon
Almost Disastrous

We were chugging through what
appeared TO be normal channel
between coral reefs when suddenly
there was a subterranean rumblingI
in the sea. Great geysers of water
shot at least 25 feet into the air.
AS the water rose high into the
sky, we could feel chill drafts from
the spray. The water changed
color constantly-blue TO green,
even TO a slightly reddish color.
The riptides ragged beneath us
for almost an hour while the Ruth
Lee trembled, shuddered and
threatened TO swamp herself.
Then, as suddenly as the oceanic
phenomenon started. il was over
and the peaceful tropical seas were
lunbroken by hardly so much as a
ripple.
/ Several days later. we made our
last landing for supplies before
setting out for Australia. Facing
us was the longest sea journey of
our entire 3.000-mile voyage. We
still had no navigation equipment
but we knew Australia was there.
We knew it was a big spot on the
map and we were certain we could
hit il at some place along its coast.
On the afternoon of October B.
after being at sea nearly two

Peaches and Cream
Ist Civilized Food

We sailed for almost two weeks
more, momentarily expecting TO
strike the Australian coast. At
$50 on a mid-October morning
Lloyd saw land for the first time.
Even our makeshift map told us
il was Australia. Within few
hours we would make our first
contact with free white people
again. An Australian patrol launch
came to meet us and they gave us
the first civilized food we had
eaten for months. We anchored
the Ruth Lee. and each OF us ate
our fill of canned peaches and
Icream.
The Ruth Lee completed the
voyage as she had started ton
her own. We chugged into the
Australian harbor. made out our
formal entry reports and officially
turned the vessel over to the Aus
tralian government for use as
a patrol ship or junk.
Lloyd and / both agreed that

Win Service Crosses

We've had an opportunity to
cable our families and we've had
a chance to learn the momentous
news which has taken place In
the world since the last days oil
Bataan and Corregidor.
We both are just as anxious as
we were the day the war began
to get our crack at the Japs. We
have had il once their way. Now,
we would like TO try it the Ameri-
can way. Bataan and Corregidor
are just as important to US now
as they were seven or eight months
ago. Most of our close army
friends are still there and some
day soon we hope TO 60 back to
the Philippines to get them. -,
The stories they will tell will
probably be even more narrowing
and more exciting than ours. We
were Just two officers who wanted
freedom again--and had enough
physical strength left in us to
do it.

we heard a sound like that Of eX-
pioding firecraekers. Then, there
was a roar over the boat We
looked up in anticipation OF the
worst-and found it,
We were being strafed by q
Japanese bomber which had roared
at us from out OF the sun. In the
next IS minutes, II made ID
strafing attacks, looming down
upon us at such close range we
could see the face of the nose
gunner.
/ made a dash for the Ruth
Lees small cabin and grabbed our
Japanese flag. Lloyd and l held
il full spread on deck as the Jap
bomber came around for a fourth
attack.
The big bomber roared in until
we felt as if we could touch IT.
Scared as we were though, we
kept smiling and waving our arms
and the flag. 1t did the trick.
After two more inspections, the
bomber dipped in salute and dis
aDDeared TO the north.
