Two Negro Boffolicns
Now On Duty Oversees

More than ten thousand Negro
SeaBees are among the members
OF this amazing group of fight
ing construction men who have
played an all-important role on
every battlefront Of the world
from the first skirmishes at
Guadalcanal to the vicious war
fare now being waged ON the
rocky terrain in Italy. For rea-
sons of military security, the en-
tire story cannot be told; but two
Negro Battalions are now over
seas, and many men are being
readied to 60.
No task is impossible to the
SeaBees, who put the finishing
touches on Henderson Field
while Jap planes unloaded their
bombs and failed them with
machine-gun fire, laid corduroy
roads for supplies and guns at
Rendova while the enemy laid
down a blistering artillery bar
rage, built airfelds, docks, fuel
tanks and warehouses in the Ale
utians in the teeth Of 'wiIliwaws,'
gales reaching a hundred miles
an hour, and have been in the
thick Of amphibious action in
many battle areas.
