Horne, by his frankness and willingness to admit Navy mise takes made a better impression than any other Navy man appear ing before Congress.
 Horne was high in his praise of our naval offiSors and men, but frankly admitted that the Navy was caught off guard in the Savo Island battle of August 9, just after the Marines landed at Quadalcanal. He said there was no excuse for this defeat; that a board of inquiry was now in- vestigating ; and there probably would be heavy penalties for the guilty.
 Horne said that apparently the captains of the cruisers sunk had not ordered their men to battle stations. He also revealed that an Australian admiral that night was in command of the "screen- ing force" of cruisers and destroy CTS supposed to be protecting the main task force.
 Horne admitted that the Aus tralian officer and Admiral Kelly Turner, chief of the Allied task force, knew a Jap scouting fleet was in the vicinity, but didn't figure 1t would risk an attack. The commanders calculated that the earliest possible time the Japs could reach SaVo Island was after dayhreak next morning.
 Therefore the Australian ad- mlral left his flagship, the Can. barre, and spent the night on Admiral Turner's flagship 26 miles from the scene of battle. No orders were given meanwhile to Australian and American Of- ficers under Turner and the Australian, and they were caught completely off base when the Japs struck at about 1850 Q. m. LAPS CORNERED
 IN ALEUTIANS
 On the more optimistic side, Admiral Horne reported the United States had sunk a great many Jap cruisers, and that de- spite the defeat at SaVo Island we had been definitely superior in operational strategy.
 In the Aleatians the Japs are so completely bottled up, Horne reported, that we probably could wipe them out at any time. Our submarine patrol has been es- pecially effective in these waters, with the result that the JapS are desperately hard up for food, avi- ation gasoline and other supplies.
 Horne admitted. under ques. tOning by Congressmen, t hat Australians had not sent their troops to New Guinea to the extent requested by Gen. Mac. Arthur. He also reported that cooperation between Gen. Mac Arthur and Admiral Halscy was excellent.
 MacArthur, he said, had been sent to Australia at the request of the Australians, though the Army wanted to keep him in corn- mand at Bataan.
 Horne also made no attempt to minimize the seriousness Of the submarine menace.

"CordioI Greetings" Says Post
Commander, On First Birthday
Of The Apache Sentinel"

In the first issue of "THE
APACHE SENTINEL" the Post
Commander wishes to extend cor
dial greetings to all military and
civilian personnel at Fort Hua-
chuca.
The purpose of "THE APACHE
SENTINEL" is to provide perma-
nent newspaper. for Fort Hua-
chuca for the particular benefit
of the personnel of Sou 1922 and
attached units. want all such
personnel, both military and ci-
william, to feel that this paper is
theirs to represent them in every
proper way, for whatever benefit
and enjoyment it can give them.
AS the lives of the personnel
of Sou 1922 and attached units
blend in with the activities Of the
transient troops, there will natur-
ally be a blending of interest in
the two papers now being pub
lished on this Post, "The Buffalo"
of the 92d Infantry Division, and
"The Apache Sentinel of Sou
1922. In this respect, we pledge
to our brothers-in-arms a cor
dial and generous spirit of CO.
operation in supplementing each
others efforts in our respective
newspapers. We frankly admit
that we only hope "The Apache
Sentinel will prove to be as good
a paper as "The Buffalo"
The name, "THE APACHE SEN.
TINEL," was carefully chosen. This
name and its masthead dig deep

into the history of Fort Huachuca
and tie into the stirring events of
the present day. Fort Huachuca was
a small part of the land of the
Apaches a thousand years ago.
They must have loved the Hua-
chucas as we do today. In our de-
velOpment as nation and in our
winning of the West, this station
became particularly identical with
Negro soldiers of the United
States Army. Today, that identifi-
cation has been accentuated to
degree which gives us. the honor
of being the largest Negro garrison
in the world, with many thousands
of soldiers in training. Considering
climate and other advantages, it
is probably the best training camp
in the United States.
AS soldiers, we insist that "The
Apache Sentinel must have a
purpose and must be on guard. So
we have assigned to it the duty
of guarding the Fort Huachuca
Spirit. Thousands of troops will
come, train and then gO-but our
Sentinel will remain ever on
duty to guard the spirit we have
created here.

many reasons which lay in the
past and live in the present, has
