FOUGHT AGAINST ODDS

Fighting against odds is no novel;
ty for the u. S. Marines who on
many occasions have forged their
way to victory when their chances
of succeeding seemed. remote.
1t is the deeds of their fore
bears, which the present-day Sea
Soldiers are determined to emulate.
They furnish an inspiration to the
men of the Corps. A typical ex-
plot took place when the smolder-
ing fires of a revolution burst into
flame in Santo Domingo in 1916.
Soon the Marines were landed
and, after several skirmishes, they
occupied a number of towns and
villages with view to pacifying
the country. 1t so happened that
one small detachment of Sea Sol
diers was on duty at San Francisco
de Macoris under the command of
Lieut.. Ernest c. Williams.
Natives Well Armed
All about them were rebellious
Dominicans while the local strong
hold, called Fortaleza, was under
the control of about fortywell arm
ed natives.
1t was feared that at any mo-
ment the natives might decide to
release and arm the 100 prisoners
confined in Fortaleza, increasing
the potential dangers of the situa-
ton.
Smyrna times. [volume] (Smyrna, Del.) 1854-1987, 1942-05-14

When orders were received by
Williams to establish a military
government, he Immediately at
tackled and captured the fortress
with mere handful of men, per-
forming one of the most daring ex-
ploits in the history of the Marine
Corps.
Eight Marines Wounded
With only a dozen men he made
his assault, eight Marines being
wounded in the first onslaught.
With reckless disregard of danger
Williams and his four remaining
Marines pressed on, the leader
thrusting himself against the door
just as it was being closed by the
Dominicans, forcing an entry.
At this critical moment Will
liam's pistol jammed just as a ma
tive pointed his rifle straight at the
Marine leaders chest. An alert
Marine grasped the rifle and wrest-
ed it from the mans grasp. Dur
ing the next few breath-taking
minutes the Marines killed two
guards and gained control of the
stronghold with its 100 prisoners.
For his heroic conduct Lieuten-
ant Williams was awarded the Con-
gressional Medal of Honor. Only
the unfaltering courage of the Ma
rines could have prompted them to
charge straight through to their
objective after nearly two-thirds of
Smyrna times. [volume] (Smyrna, Del.) 1854-1987, 1942-05-14
