we were lucky We hit Diamond Head right
on the head. And what way to use the word
lucky! If the regularity with which those
flyers hit those islands is luck, I'd like to have
a hunk of it for about half an hour and I'll
use your dice!
We spent nine days in the Hawaiian
Islands, the spot that felt the Japs' first foul
blow and is now the heart Of our furious
answer The Islands pump men and supplies
into every area Of the Pacific. And back to
the Islands come battle SCARED men for care

charge of it.

From Honolulu we took off for Christmas
Island in General MacArthur's personal
plane, a big Liberator called Seventh
Heaven" piloted by Captain Frank Orme
When we arrived it was clear that even per-
son who didn't like to fly would prefer the
Seventh Heaven to Christmas. The plane

They Dsa's Iilss Christmas
CHRISTMAS Island is guano island nhabit-
ed by thousands Of gooney birds. understand
that before the war Britain and America
argued over possession of the island England
claimed it was ours. We said it was theirs!
GUYS on Christmas Island hope it'll be given
to the Japs as part of their punishment.
The island is the largest atoal in the world
and the dullest The only entertainment
they'd had there till we arrived was the Gary
Cooper troupe back in 1913. After we did
our show they all asked us if we please
wouldn't try to get Gary Cooper to come
back.

And speaking Of Frances and Patty, they
were the first girls ever to land on the island.
Won't Eleanor be mad!
From Christmas we hoped to Canton
Island, an Air Transport Command base with
all the charm OF Christmas Island. On Canton

They quartered US in barracks 50 close to
the ATC runway that the C-54's had to de-
tour around our shack. Every time one Of
those fow-motored jobs came looming down
the runway thought, If that guy swerves
little IN get to go with himr' That worried
me because l wasn't packed. We did shows
for both the Army and Navy On Canton.
At one Of them Frances sang. Pm IN the
Mood for Love-" and kid IN the back row

After we left Canton We began to operate
on historic ground. TAzwa. We sat On the
beach and saw films Of the Battle Of Tazzv1-
We saw them fighting over the very ground
We were on. Right next to Us were about $50

As WE opened our first show on Tarawa
little mouse ran out along wire that stretched
over the heads of the audience from the pro-
lection booth to the top Of the stage. For
minute l thought Disney had a unit on the
island. The biggest laugh we got on that
show was when said the mouse was prob
ably looking for some cheese and thought
was Der Bingle."
We saw what made the going 50 tough on
Tuawa. Pllboxes within pillboxes and the
abandoned British weapons the Japs had cap
tmed at Singapore and were using against us.
One block house had Diesel engine in it and
the boys were 50 eager for souvenirs that
when the Seabees wanted to use the engine,
they had to 20 around and beg back the parts
from the soldiers.
Kwajalein was next. On the beach we saw
the landing barge that Navy surgeon
turned over and used for dressing station
while the first waves were still coming ashore.
On the way to Kwajalein we passed over
Jap-held island and dropped some milk bot
ties through the bombay doors. The bot
ties make noise like falling bombs. Foolish
us! Those Japs still had ack-ack. Fortunately
they didn't care to waste it on actors. They
hadn't seen ouf show. Or maybe they'd heard
about it and didn't want to force us down!
The guys on Kwajalein had rugged up
