An American leader of Fighting
French commando troops, Capt
Douglas M. Smith, is in Washington
in quest Of equipment for wider
operations and to promote the idea
of hitting the Germans harder
behind their own lines.
At a press conference, Capt.
Smith yesterday described raid
last autumn which took him and
his men across 1870 miles of Afri-
can desert for a hit-and-run attack
on Bengasi. Their object was to
slip into Bengasi by night and de-
stroy docks and other installations
but they were intercepted by a
German force just outside the town.
They wiped out this enemy force.
but the noise Of battle aroused the
Bengasi garrison and they were
forced to withdraw.
During their two-months trek
across the desert, however, they de-
stroyed much Axis equipment, in
cluding 300 planes parked on des-
ert fields and many hundreds" of
enemy trucks.

Godlewski Of Chicago never saw Po-
land-but after the Germans fell on
the land of his ancestors he left
school to join the Polish Air Force.
In the hospital here today with
his hands gone, the 19-year-old
Godlewski received the Virtuti
Militari, Poland's highest military
decoration. He is the first American
to win the honor.
It was pinned on his crisp, red
striped pajamas for his feat in put
ting up gallant, one-man defense
against German night f1ghers which

bomber from the rear as it was

PoIond's Highest Award Given
To American, Both Hands Lost

Shot through both arms and his

gunner, fought his guns and gave
the pilot directions for evasive ac-

He had made no mention of his
wounds, and not until the plane
landed did his fellow-crewmen learn
his condition.
It was found necessary to ampu-
tate his left arm just above the
elbow and his right hand just above
the wrist.

Air Vice Marshal Stanislaw Ujeski,
commander of the Polish Air Force,
presented him with the Virtuti Mill

Nazi Tales Of 'Chutists

LONDON, April 2.-German radio
reports about the activity of British
parachute troops In Denmark and
Norway, while interesting as an ad-
mission that the British have their
own men operating In those coun-
tries. were regarded by some OBJ
servers today as Nazi attempt to
cover up increasing native sabotage
and unrest within the countries and
to allow imposition of even sharper
restrictions.
For the second time in five weeks
the German-controlled Friesland
radio station last night told how
armed British chutists blew up a
factory in Denmark, and the an
nouncer complained Of "the collabo-
ration Of the Danes"
The stations broadcasts were
heard here by the British Broad
casting Corp.
0n New York the Columbia
Broadcasting System last night
recorded a German radio asser-
ton that things have got to
such pitch that armed Brit
ish parachutists can force their
way into Danish industrial plants
and persuade the guards to keep
quiet while they plant bombs.

The reports Of Danish sabotage
came even as the Germans imposed

have established a mountain base.
