Yanks' Saddest Dream:
Japs in American City

The saddest dreams that haunt
"a marine on Guadalcanal are those
that speculate what could happen
back home if Japanese soldiers of
the kind we met, could make good
on their boast to capture and loot
some American city.
It's sickening.
We saw on Guadalcanaf what
they did TO inoffensive Solomon
Islands natives. Men were butch
cred at some officers within. Ma
tive women were raped wherever
they could be found. There was
little distinction between young
and old.
The islanders ran away TO the
mountain tops. They were waiting
for us, our good friends. when the
marines landed last August.
