bat outfit training here.
I'm just an old retread,' he tells
his men, but he leaves no doubt
that there was plenty of mileage
left when the "retreading" was
done.
Capt. Combs was junior staff
executive at woodward g. Lothrop's
department store in Washington
when he submitted himself for re-
indoctrination in the Marine Corps
October IL, 1912. He joined unit of
his present organization as first
lieutenant early last January and
was promoted to captain last May

Capt. Williams Wins

John A. Williams, jr., 2614 Forty

the Soldiers Medal for heroism
while serving with the Air Forces.
with disregard for his own safe
ty," the citation telling of Capt.
Williams heroism at the Galapagos
Archipelago in February stated, "he
entered the rough and shark in
tested waters to rescue a man who
had been swept overheard from a
boat by high waves. The courage
displayed by Capt. Williams is wor-
thy of emulation and reflects high
credit upon the military service" /"
An account of the deed, which
appeared m a Panama newspaper,
said the captain was a member of
a party Of three making for shore
in small boat at the Galapagos in
a rough sea. The waves were high,
and as the small boat approached
shore, an especially high one caused
1t to capsize. The men had one
chance-to swim through jagged
reefs to safety.
Reaching the shore, Capt. Williams
noticed one of the men still clinging
to the overturned boat, which was
being carried slowly into the sea.
Sharks were visible in all directions.
The captain dived into the sea and
swan to the drifting craft, dived
underneath and grabbed line that
was attached to it. Holding the line
with his mouth and disregarding the
sharks, he made for a large boat an
chored nearby in deeper water. The
danger of being smashed against the
reefs made the trip to shore with his
heavy burden appear impossible.
The two men, exhausted, then
were taken aboard the anchored
craft.
Capt. Williams, the son OF Ashby
Williams, attorney, 1912 K street
NV, entered the Army as a first
lieutenant in October, 1912. He was
previously employed by the Army
Engineers in Washington.

period give interesting sidelights or
the war.
I'VE have three Sicilian kids
doing K P at our mess now he
wrote in August. They sing all day
long. 1 have never before seen such
happy K P. For their work they re-
ceive three good meals and they are
just glad to be eating regularly.
Profanity Easily Learned.
THE kids can really sing. They
tackle opera and American music
with equal Zest. The first words they
learn are naturally curse words. 1t
is odd that they can curse without
any accent whatever, but you can't
understand their normal speech
Profanity is easily learned. Even
the Arabs were good at it.
"s I still rather like this war
but miss the luxuries of the United
States, such as beds. tablecloths and
ice and things we used to take for
granted.
THE people have been surprisingly
good to us. They were really glad to
see us. Most of them were starving
The more see of the world, the
more I appreciate the United States
The flies here drive us almsot crazy
You can't scare them, they are sc
sticky. Our flies at home are better
hammered.
