Gesinski Calls Jungle
Fighting in New Guinea
A Lille Rugged
BY MARGARET DAILY

Wearing the Order Of the Purple
Heart, three campaign bars and
two stars signifying major engage
ments, Pvt Thomas Gesinski,
1854 Nagel, Hamtramck. mod
estly speaks of his soldering as
being "a little rugged.
A member Of the Red Arrow
Division, GesinSki entered The
army i'm Dec. 1911. The following
May be landed in Australia.
After five months Of training In
"the land down under" he was
shipped 10 New Guinea. That's
where he really saw action.
SOMETIMES TOUGH
Actually" says Thomas, it's
not a. bad a. II sounds whom
you read about IT. We went ITO
miles through the jungle. Some
times, the going was kinda tough
and We could only make a mile a
day.
And those Jap snipers kept
us hopping. They had a trick of
hiding in the palm trees. When
you'd pass, they'd cut the
branches and use the leaves 10
break their fall. We called them
monkey men,"
But jungle fighting isn't So
tough, according 10 Gesinski.
ITS Just the rain and the
heat that get YOU.
"Of course, when we got
round Buna, things got hot.
There the Japs really opened
up"
NOT SPECTACULAR
There was nothing spectacular
abott- battle for Pvt. GeSinski
1T was just every man doing
his part and a little bit more. l
wasn't In on the finish. The
mnokey men got me, Dec. .. I
had conclusion caused by shrap-
mel and was moved back To the
hospital. Believe me those doc
tors know how To take care of
you"
Since landing in the United
States. Geslnski has been in three
different hospitals. but now an
nounces he's in the pink.
While in the hospital in Aus
tralis, GesinSki met an old frient
of his. Chester Wiencek, a Detroit
boy and also member Of the Rec
Arrow.
1T was swell, seeing p friend
from home" said GesinS
Chester had head wound, but

passed by the eaters"'
My answer is: l cannot
wholly agree with the idea of
doing away with service plates.
A table properly and pleasingly
set is as important as are scrubbed
flngernalls. washed faces, and
brushed hair, and the requirement
that men and boys put on coats -
at least to, dinner. Even if the
hostess herself waits on, as well as
sets, the table. the service plates
need not be useless. She can use
them for the first course, heated
for a hot one. left cold for a cold
one, or for use under soup plate.
In other words, because extra
expenditure is to be avoided, this
does not excuse failure to keep
up morale by not making our
way of living as perfect as we can!
