the thick of the fighting yelling orders and directions and encour- agement, helping to carry out wounded and to resupply ammuni- tion.
 Before the darkness fell the German tanks had come back twice again and were thrown back each time. Finally there was nothing left but smoke shells, and head quarters radioed the companies to pull out. AS they skirted round the hill ridges like goats they left behind them field filtered with several score of German tanks. The two looeys and their men had done their job.
 That was a part of the now fla nous battle of Ell Guettar, the battle that turned the tide in southern Tunisia. That was a story of two lieutenants and their com panies. Things get much more in- innate on three-man patrols. There was a patrol of Rangers which had to go several miles behind the German lines and park on the top of the highest hill overlooking the road to Feriana. They had a pair of powerful field glasses, some cans of c rations and a special radio set tuned into headquarters.
 These three were the first to see a long stretched-out convoy of all kinds of vehicles almost bumper to bumper. Shortly after they ra- dioed back the news they saw our medium bombers coming over in waves, blasting the convoy. They were together on that hill for for ty-eight hours. When you have three soldiers in enemy territory on patrol for two days you no longer have lieutenant and two sergeants-you just have three men with a job to do.
 Of course, there are always some, in every army, who were never meant to be soldiers, much less officers. Their nerves just can't take the noise and the smell of war. They get rattled and run. It takes only one attack for new looey's men to find that out. If he is one of the few who "can't take it' he has to be shifted some where else, because there is no officer who can stand the constant biting scorn of his men.
 It was in the outskirts of Nicosia in Sicily that the colonel com manding battalion said, My lieutenants die like flies, but they die with their men," Then he pointed to several officers in the distance. "Those are three new lieutenants fresh from the replace ment depot. We'll know how good they are tomorrow. We are going to attack tonight"
 The three lieutenants were young, almost too young. One of them had joined up before he was graduated from college, the second had been going to law school and the third had been a soda jerker in small town. All three were solid and fit. Their faces were free from strain that comes after days of

opened and operated by Mr.. Hen

United States army. He has Il
years of experience behind him as
an automotive mechanic, and holds
a government diploma attesting to
that fact. Knowing that the gov
