Joe Hurt Saw Plenty OF Action
In Pacific; Likes u. S. Navy

One look at Joe Kenneth Hurt,
aviation boatswain's mate, and
you can tell that there is one
young man, who is glad to be on
solid ground after seeing more
than three years of active duty
in this mans Navy, having travel
ed literally all over the Pacific.
But don't think Joe doesn't like
the Navy, because he's sailor
through and through. After spend
ing five years in the Navy, he
believes that every man should
be privileged to serve in it. II he
were given compulsory military
training, Joe says he'll take the
Navy every time.
AS an aviation boatsWaln's mate,
Joe was serving aboard the first
carrier Yorktown when American
seamen showed the Japs the road
back to Tokyo at the battle of
Midway. But that was only the
beginning of Joe Hurts naval
career. There were to be many
more battles, just as fierce and
nerve-shattering, battles that Joe
participated in without receiving
a single scratch. "Scared?" said
Joe. "You don't have time to be
scared when you're thinking of
fighting off Jap attack, but after
its all over, you wonder how long
your luck will hold out"
When the attack came on June
4 on the Yorktown, Joe was on
the flat deck during the hottest
hail of destruction from the Jap
planes. He then went to the hang
er deck and then over the side
on a rope. No life boats awaited
this gallant crew, only the deep
black water of the Pacific, where
already hundreds of men were
swimming. Joe dived in with the
others and for 80 minutes, a life
time to those men below, he swan
until destroyer picked him up.
While in the water, Jap planes
were seen approaching and Joe
and his companions knew that

they were to be straffed as they
fought for their lives in the water
below. The planes came nearer,
but they never reached those gal
liant boys, as American planes
from the South came to their res
cue. Every plane that had tried
to strafe the Yorktown survivors
was shot out of the sky.
From Midway, Hurt was assign
ed to the new USS Hornet, which
was commissioned November g.
1913. Action on the Hornet took
him to Truk, Ulithi, zap, Sabang,
Soerabaya, the Bonins, Leyte
Lingayen Gulf and Mindoro. The
Hornet spent four grueling, dan
gerous, and exciting nights off
Formosa and though constantly
under attack, did not receive a
single scratch.

NAVY MEN GUESTS
OF KIWANIS CLUB

Members of the Kiwanis Club
honored Navy week and particular
ly Navy Day at Their meeting yes
terday noon at the Friendly when
they had as their guests for lunch
con, three officers Of the SUBJ
marine Greenling, now tied up al
the us. Coast Guard wharf on the
Cape Fear river.
With president Emory Souther-
land presiding, Harry Solomon had
charge of the program and intro
duced the three Navy men, 1t. Gg)
H. E. Troxell, Jr., a former Duke
student and now communications
officer of the Greenling; LIST Lieut..
W. J. Holm, USNR and 1t. Gg) c.
H. Mccall, executive and navigat-
ing officer of the sub.
|, 1t. Troxell in few brief re.
marks told Kiwanians present that
he was greatly honored by the in
vitation to be present and took
occasion to thank the people Of
Wilmington for their fine hospital
ity to the officers and men of the
Greenling. 1t. Holm added a rew
words of praise along the same
line, and then 1t. McColl took over,
saying that making speeches was
his main dish.
The young executive officer OF
the Greenling prefaced short but
interesting address on the subject
OF his ship, with the assertion that
Wilmington is darn good town
and that his men were having a
good time here. He pointed out
that the crew of the Greenling is
made up almost entirely of enlist
ed men, selected after long train
ing and all are proud of the dol
phins they wear. Known as the
spoiled brats of the Navy, he said.
the men are well trained, tough
and ready.
The speaker then explained that
the Greenling is slightly over 300
feet in length, larger than the
largest of the German subs. A
merican submarines, he said, can
stay submerged in an emergency
as long as two days, and that it is
quite comfortable under water for
the first II hours. He went on to
state that the officers and men all
had their own sleeping accomoda-
tons, a fine library is aboard and
movies are shown while on patrol
duty.
1t. McColl devoted the remainder
of his talk to a humorous review
OF some of the incidents encounter
ed by officers and crew of the
Greenling while on active naval
duty and closed by issuing an in
vitation to visit the ship this after
noon.
Guests of the club included Rev.
Paul Mcconnell of Evandsville,
Ind, and Ray Galloway, American
Legion service officer. DR.. Hall was
welcomed back to the club after
an absence.
