Weathermen Sweat 1t Out

Fall reported to Maj. Gen. Elwood
R. Quesada, commanding officer
of the Ninth Tactical Air Force,
that next day would be rainy.
Il woke up in the middle of the
night in a cold sweat because 1
dreamed the sur was shining. It
was an awful feeling" McFall re-
lated.
On that momentous night before
the final decision to strike next
day, McFall had predicted an out
side chance of improved weather.
He recalled that, as he was leaving
the conference. Quesada said, well
we will see you in the morning
enc way or another.
''That startled me. I asked the
general what he meant. He replied
he would see me whether he de-
cided to strike or not. I told the
general thought he meant he
would see me-Gead or alive-if
was wrong about the weather."
McFall stayed up all that night
to see that he was not wrong.
McFall enlisted as private in
the weather section Of the air force
in December, 1899. He was COM
missioned in January, 1912, and
in November, he came to England
as group weather officer in the
Eighth u. S. Air Force. Later he

one of the first ships and landed the
rext day under fire to set up his
equipment as weather officer with

Awarded Infantry
Combat Badge

Pfc. William Keilholtz, son of Mr..
and Mrs. Clyde Keilholtz of this town
has written his parents that he was
among those to be awarded the Com
bat Infantryman Badge for exem-
plary conduct in combat against the
enemy during the Northern Solo
mons Campaign.
The official order under date of
April IL, 1914, issued to the officers
and men of the 37th Infantry Divi-
sion, reads in part:
''The Japanese forces on Bougain-
Vile Island have just suffered one of
the most humiliating defeats in the
history of the Japanese Army. You,
and your comrades of other Army,
Navy and Marine organizations, are
the ones responsible. Staggering
losses were inflicted on the enemy
wherever he attacked. The enemy
lost thirty lives for every American
who died in this operation, one of
the highest ratios in our favor yet
to occur in this war.
You officers and men of the 37th
Division have done more than parti-
cipate in the smashing of an enemy
army. You have proved that the
American soldiers are more than a
match for the much-touted Japanese
on any battlefield of the enemy's
choosing. You have given added proof
that the American soldier, in spite
of his background of peaceful pur-
suits and comfortable living, can,
when he must, overcome the cruelest
and most ruthless people in the
world"
The citation is signed by Robert
A. Beightler, Major General, u. S. A.,
Commanding.
