Old Ship Leads Long
Voyage To Africa

The old Bouncing Bee" an over
age destroyer, was thrown into the
African occupation as a simple little
bunt, but turned out to be home
run.
Her crew told the story when the
ship arrived in Norfolk, Va, upon
her return to home waters.
Filled with troops, low in the
water and difficult to identify with
her mast removed, the desroyer's
mission was to lead American occu-
patton forces in Africa.
Challenge is Answered
I, was / A. NJ, and suddenly a
searchlight from the hills behind SAT-
picked her out Immediately from Il
