when we had withdrawn one eve
ming to lick our wounds, Satan
stepped out of hell and came to
earth at that spot. Jerry caught us
III pincers. You remember read
ing of American troops making their
way from behind the enemy lines?
I was one of them.
We were completely, irrevocably
surrounded. but we managed to get
back. That was the Germans first,
last and only real success against
us and, after we had been pushed
almost out of Tunisia, we pegained
the upper hand.
My third battle took place at a
town called Ell Guettar. We were
in little skirmish north of there
when we were called in one evening
to relieve an outfit which had been
at the front all of one day.
Eighteen days later we were still
there and still fighting. Many a
time, every day, shells would drop
out OF nowhere amongst us and
We would dodge and dive swiftly
to place of concealment.
Machine gun bullets often sang
merry song around our heads,
only had a peculiar dislike to the
tune. Those German machine guns,
rattlesnake guns we called them,
spit out more lead in a minute than
you could count in week That
action took place at the time the
British 9th Army captured Gabes.
We, at that time, took the town,
drove to within s18 miles of Gabes
looking for Germans, and the Brit
ish and we nearly shot each other
up, but recognition came in time.
There are many conflicting reports
as to who was first. but I have only
one thing to say to that. We may
not have been first, but we we're
darned early.
The fourth and. from all indica-
tions, final battle was on a big scale
and covered lot of territory. Beja,
Matuer, hill 427-60a, ETC., and,
finally, thank God. Tunis and
Bizerte. Fighting in those hills, ad-
vanclng into the teeth of machine
gun fire, seeing men go down like
duckpins, that was the story. The
infantry took the brunt of the battle
and they did magnificent job.
I believe that this place was as
near as 1 was to serious injury One
morning at dawn "a Focke-W -Wulfs
dove out of the sky on our location.

interesting anecdotes of this cam

I myself am in very good shape
and not little sorry to see that my
part in this fracas is over for the
time being. I'll never complain
again of being bored. There is not
much time for being bored when
you have been on the front lines
for six months. I have been ex-
ceedingly lucky. I must have had
several nice people praying for my
safety for there were several times
when 1 wouldn't have given

least my liberty, but luckily 1 have
escaped all harm.
I have seen million things that
no one should see and I intend to
