 Naugatuck News,)

Peleliu Island, Palau-tDelGyeOr- A Marine commented that the AeaV. fly bombed and shelled island looked like Pittsburgh on a misty day, An' other laughed and said he'd much rather Do la Pittsburgh
 Then came the word from tHe de' barkation officer;
 "OveF the Sidew
 Marines swaFmed down the cargo nets to the waiting boats,
 "It isnt going to be too tough" '" said tho young Ted.headed veteran of the duadaleanNl and Cape Glou. eester campaigns
 The length and breadth of tho tiny island, only 5S0 miles from the east coast of the Philippines, and the most western Pacific point yet hit by United States forces, had been hlaSted for days by the com. bined might of bNtlteshipS, cruisers. and earIier-besea planes were still throwing In bombs,
 But there were plenty of Japs on the island, still fighting, somehow having miraculously survived the heavy concentration Of fire, Just before we elambored over the eide an Audaeious mortar shell struck lcss than 20 feet from the forecastlc Of the troop ship, The blast sent Marines and sailors seampcTing for cover momentarily,
 And as our boat plowed through the water toward tho beach, there were scattered mortar shells land ing within 100 yards, On tho beach an amphibian tractor flamed, hit by Jap fire,
 Maybe 1t isn't going to be SO easy" said the young red-head,
 The first assault troops had moved in toward the air field. On the shore squads of Marines, including many colored troops, unloaded ammuni- ton and supplies to be rushed into the forward lines,
 About 800 yards from shore out boat halted, and We transferred to an amphibian tractor. Coral reefs prevented the boat from going up to the beach.
 The amphtrac grated on the coral and bumped and crunched the 500 yards to the beach.
 We were inl
 Pushing past wrecked amphtrac and a duck which had been bat tered by e heavy prolectile, we moved along the beach.
 A mortar shell ''whooshed" over our heads and the party, to man, hit the soft sand and started to dig in. Two more shells whizzed over, probing the range for landing boats.
 The mortar fire continued spas- medically as We moved toward our objective. Finally we dug in for the night and a brace of 75 millimeter batteries moved between us and the airfleld.
 Foxholes were dug hurriedly and plenty deep. Tired Marines grinned broadly as they watched planes paste the forward areas with rock cts, bombs and machine gun fire. searching out mortar and artillery supplements.
 They settled down for their first night on Peleliu.
