GUINEA, Dec. 14-(Delayed)-
American doughboys, advanc-

whitening fire from rifles, Tom

tured the little native village OF
Buna today from the Japanese
Buna village, shambles from
weeks of heavy bombings and
recent mortar barrages, was &C.
cupied less than two hours after
the attack started.
walked into the village after
the attack as the Americans
were consolidating there posi-
tons. / saw a few Jap dead, and
no prisoners. American casual
ties were negligible.
The attack started at 7 am.
with one of the heaviest mortar
barrages ever. laid down in this
section. Four hundred rounds OF
shells were poured into the enc
my positions in a short time.
SHOWER OF DEATH
Then. the Aperirans hit the
village from two sides, and they
showered the Japanese with
everything they had from rifles
to machine guns.
While one unit which held a
beachhead to the east moved
into the village clearing, another
unit inland started a swinging
door attack, sweeping in along
river to the west.
These forces met in the clear
ing, and the village was taken
The commanding officer told
me he believed that at the time
of the final attack not more
than 20 to so Japanese were
there. A few were killed. Some
were believed to have infiltrat-
ed through the American lines in
an effort to reach their comrades
at Buna Mission, 800 yards
away. Others, it was believed,
swan to the mission.
INITIAL STEPS
A mapor step In the taking of
Buna goes back nine days. It
was then that Sergeant Herman
Bottcher, of San Francisco, led
a force through enemy lines,
established a beachhead along
side the village. and fought off
two counterattacks.
l arrived in time to duck two
snapers' bullets and talk to some
of the soldiers who participated
in the attack. They included
Corporal Edwin Baird, of Stur-
gis, Mich.
Writing about, the New
Guinea war, I'd come to think
that Buna was a town of con-
siderable size But there are
native villages more imposing.
Only four native grass huts, all
badly damaged, were left stand
ing.
