Berlin enroute to Marseille,
France, where he was to
board the Gripsholm for the re.

by odd coincidence almost
went through the wa4 with
Hayes. They trained to-

They went overseas on the

Africa in the same outfit. When
Hayes awoke in Sfax hospital

for a short time-when Hager

NINTH U. S. ARMY AIR FORCE
BASE IN SOUTHERN ENGLAND
July 2.-Our group h d moved
down the coast some time ago in
preparation for D-Day, and even
tually moving towards France.
On the day the Germans first
started sending over numbers OF
their pilotless planes-we call
them doodlebugs-we were out on
mission north of Paris. When
we got back, my flight was sched-
uled to land last. We had little
gas left, so, while we were wait
ing to land, my flight leader sug-
gested that we split up and go out
looking for these things.
I hadn't been out but a short
time when I heard an Raj base
calling out the position of one OF
them. So I beat it over there. AT
first I thought it was going to be
hard to recognize these things.
But when I first saw it, knew
in a flash what it was. 1t was a
sort of freakish looking thing.
There wasn't any propeller and its
tail looked awful funny because of
that jet thing sitting right on the
top of the fuselage with fire COM
ing out of it. It's got square wing
tips and it looks something like a
miniature Mustang with tapering
leading and trailing edges.
I was up about 5000 feet and it
was down at 1000, moving fast.
The doodlebug was coming in par
allel to me and I did not see it
until it was under me. The flax
started coming il and that helped
to keep the pilotless plane in sight
until I was within range.
First Kill
Twas a little worried about what
would happen to me if it exploded
when hit, so l started firing when
I was quite far away. was div
ing pretty fast and the first thing
knew had overshot my target.
I pulled back and flew right be-
side it. The doodlebug was flying
perfectly straight, so got good
look. It looks like some 25th Cen
tury deal.
I followed the robot raider over
the field and closed on it from be-
low-I like that spot because YOU
we got a big area to hit. On the
fourth burst it caught fire and a
big blue flame burst out, and it
just snapped over and hit t IN e
ground in a big field.
There was house in the field
and the explosion blew the roof
off and smashed all the windows
and killed lot of ducks. OF
course, it made pretty big craft
err, too.
That was my first doodlebug.
Then the next night I was play
ing volley ball when our intelli-
gence officer said that the Raj
wanted a couple Of us to go out
and patrol. I stayed up there
about an hour and a half, but did
not see anything and so landed
again.
I was pretty sore about my
wasted search and asked if could
not 20 up again. I hadn't more
than got up this time when saw
one. I chased the gadget about Is
miles before I caught it. 1t caught
fire, rolled over, and went down.

A little later the same night l
was out over the Channel when l
saw jet flame moving fast. I
caught it about 10 miles inland.

and exploded. I was at the top OF

Mckay's recent indictment for
graft conspiracy by the state
grand jury isn't news in McKay's
own newspaper. The current issue
of the Michigan Times. published
weekly at Grand Rapids, ignored
the indictment in both the news
and editorial columns.
Instead, Mckay discussed a din
ner party given in a restaurant
licensed 10 sell alcoholic bever-
ages. The proprietor, he wrote,
said the party was for inspectors
and other employees of the state
liquor commission and added food
and drinks were just part of the
game"
Mckay admitted, however, that
the commission may have rules
and regulations against this. He
is campaigning TO take the state
out of the liquor business and
hand the business over to private
interests.
