5th Army Douehboys
Praised by D. {. Man
WHO Saw Them Fight

1t. Col. Robert B. Neely, 1901
Wyoming avenue NV, who served
as operations officer of the saith
Infantry Division in innumerable
mountain engagements in Italy, has
returned to Washington with a field
artilleryman's deep-rooted respect
for the lowly doughboy.
Despite the wonders Of the me-
chanical age, science hasn't yet
designed a robot to take the place
of the doughboy," Col. Neely said
today in paying tribute to the foot
soldier
A son of Robert H. Neely, Wash
ington attorney, Col. Nicely has
been assigned to duty with the Army
Ground Forces Headquarters at the
War College since his return after
service with the 5th Army. He is
now imparting to headquarters Of
ficials some of the lessons of hard
combat he learned in the tough
Italian fighting.
Saw Much Action.
The 34th Infantry Division par
ticipated in many spectacular ac-
tions, described at length by war
correspondents. One Of its, regi-
ments held the summit OF Mount
Pansano for six days Of fog, rain
and snow. 1t was then the mountain
training came into use, for the mer
scaled heights that rose at a CO.
degree angle near the crest.
Another hard engagement In
which Col. Nicely took part was at
San Vittore early in January, scene
of some of the bitterest house-to-
house fighting during the campaign
1t was at San Vittore that the
bazooka was first used to rout enemy
snipers from buildings.
WAR isn't always the dramatic
bits of front-line action which are
played up and give rise to popular
belief that war Is always like that"
he said. "It isn't. There are plenty
of lulls and after a particularly
hard-fought engagement, soldiers
are relieved by fresh troops and
Withdrawn to rear areas for rest
and recreation"
Favors Special Units.
There has always been a closer
bond between the infantrymen and
the artilleryman than between. per-
haps, the troops of any other branch
of the service. Col. Neely sticks up
for the doughboy.
The Commands, Rangers, noun
tain troops, paratroopers and other
specialized units, he claims, are es-
sentially doughboys and use infan-
try tactics.
These special infantrymen are
invaluable for special missions, and
am heartily in favor Of them, but
have found that the run-of the
mill infantryman in the 5th Army
makes good showing in compari-
son." he said. "An he lacks Is the
specialized training given to these
de luxe doughboys."

Baker turned his prisoners
into litter bearers and the
procession seemed to have
magnetic quality. Out of their
isolated hiding places as the
strange group passed came
eight other Germans who fell
in line and took their turns at
carrying the filters.
1t was 100 in the morning
when a noise was heard around
the kitchen mess of the artil-
lery battery. Someone was
obviously messing around the
mess - circumstance which
always makes soldiers sus-
picious. Staff Sgt. Blackie
Norris of Watonga. Okla,
woke up. So did Sgt. Harold
Martin Of Frederick, Okla,
and Pvt. Buck Gray, another
Sooner from Sement.
They saw a figure in the
moonlight and took after him.
Round and round the battery
area the crazy chase went.
Finally Buck, being private
and consequently somewhat
faster on his feet, nabbed the
intruder with a flying tackle.
He was a German paratroop-
err whose hunger had led him
to slip out of his hiding place
