the machine gun in the first place
Here's why.
After we had landed on the
morning of August 7. Johnny
Rivers, my best friend who was
killed and Leo Diamond from
Brooklyn, who was our squad
leader. were ordered to mount a
machine gun position on the banks
Of that Tenaru River.
+ The weather had been hellish for
days. The rain came down in
steady torrents until the whole
island was a sea of mud. All of
us had an inch-thick coat of sticky.

might. / was carrying the gun,
Johnny the tripod and Lee the am
munition.
LIKE CLIMBING GLASS
II was the climb up grassy hill
that started most of my trouble
The hill was steep, and with the
mud, sand and grass II was like
climbing a sheet of glass to get on
the top For every step forward,
we slid back four.
The next morning | found three
layers of slain had been rubbed off
the heel of one foot. Sand and
mud were caked in the wound and
IL looked ugly. / was afraid to tell
Lee about it. / knew he would
send me back 10 have it treated.
When we reached the river my
leg was stiff, and a large gland in
my thigh had started to swell.
Every step sent a knifelike pain
up my leg. The captain noticed
my limp and raised the devil when
he found out what was wrong. He
ordered me to- report to the doc.
who took one look and said:
I'll have to operate at once,
Schmid."
THEY'RE OUR PLANES
AS he said that, a squad Of
planes roared overhead. We both
ducked. but the doc yelled:
They're ours"
He was right and the whole
island went crazy. We thought
the war was over in Guadalcanal. I.
We were wrOng-and how.
In the excitement l persuaded
the doc To delay the operation. I
"Okay,"" he said. hut be here
the first thing in the morning."

things that night-mostly home
and how We enjoyed the Saturday

That night we did.
The Jungle was calm and peace

machine gun chatter and In,

Diamond kicked me in the arm
and yelled:

can't fight with that bum leg"

L followed Diamond. crawling
under that tracer umbrella, into
the dugout. He started 10 yell a

pointed TO the opposite river bank
HERE THEY COME
"Here they come" he yelled,
and grabbed the gun.
I'll never forget that sight a:
long as / live.
Lee yelled:
There's thousand coming
over"
That's the way il looked. The
thought jumped through my mind
that they looked like a herd OF
wild cattle or an army Of ants
crossing a stream.
Johnny swung the gun around
to sweep the first wave. He fired
a few bursts and slumped over
the gun. He was dead with four
bullets spaced neatly across his
face. Johnny never knew what
hit him.
PUSH BODY ASIDE
I pushed Johnnys body away
from the gun and grabbed the
handle. I remember gritting my
teeth and getting a feeling l was
the fellows in Bataan
and Wake Island when / looked
down the sights of the gun and
saw the first wave OF Nips 60
down like wheat.
Then that spot of moonlight
came out and they were a perfect
target, but they still kept coming
over. The Japs are no 2upermen
when they're hit. They scream
and cry when they get IT.
Some of them kept charging
right up to the banks of our side.
Sometimes it seemed as if dead
men were leading. They kept
bucking that hail OF bullets uutll
they were torn apart.
JAP OFFICER LUCKY
s One Jap officer kept yelling
orders to keep attacking. He
never led charge but stayed on
the bank and let his soldiers die.
