REPORTERS
The men behind the story

RIGHT FACE. Today THIS WEEK
begins a new series of reports from
the Pacific, written on the run by two
Army correspondents, Lieut.. John
Keating and Sgt. Jack Sher. The first
one, on this page, was authored by
Sergeant Sher. Of those to come,
some will be by Sher, some by Keat-
ing, and occasionally the two will
collaborate on the same piece.
These reports will not be up-to-the-
minute tactical accounts of battles
fought. Instead they are intended to
give you an idea of how CTS think,
feel and act as they live and fight on
small atolls and barren islands.
The co-authors of this new feature
are both veteran newsmen. Sergeant
Sher is already well known to THIS
WEEK readers through his light
hearted sketches of Hollywood per-
sonalities. He's 80 and is known to
his friends as The Shape - he weighs
1873, looks like a split matchstick.
ISLAND-HoPPERS. Keating is 27
and outweighs Sher by all of two
pounds. A former New York news
paperman, he has been in the Army
for three years. John was GI for
a year, still has trouble remembering
not to salute second ieutenants.
Both are New Workers, Heating by
birth and Sher by adoption.
Covering the Pacific for the Army,
these island-hopping news hounds
have been hitting places like the Gil

think of islands like Maxim and Canton

where few CTS sit and sweat and curse

monotony.
shifted over on my bench and made
room for Heating to sit down. He dropped
forward. his elbows on his knees, dangling
the can of grapefruit juice in one limp
hand He talked about the six months he'd
spent on Maxim sweating it out, and of the
history of the war in these parts.
lHIs atoll country, he said, is the area
where, in November, 1943, the march
across the Pacific started. There was
Tarawa, which is legend, and Maxim,
Eniwetok, Saipan and Okinawa. And
Kwaj itself, where the Seventh Division.
the Army's prize in the Pacific, put the
lessons learned in the SHOWS of Attu to use
on the, fiat tropical sands.
After the battle" he said. that's
when you get it. Then comes the sitting
and waiting Big bases like Guam and
Saipan get built up and life becomes liv-
able. Not lovable, but livable. But, on
the little rocks, nothing gets better.
There are movies and an occasional
USO show - and that's about ALL
Keating's voice was gloomy. 80, the
guys stationed on the rocks sweat it out.
Some hunt shells and make them into
necklaces and then knock themselves out
being lonesome for the neck of the girl
friend where the polished shells will lie.
Other guys play poker. Even if you hate
it and lose every time you play. poker is
good thing. 1t passes the time. 1t fills up
the long, aching night after night of sweat
ing out the war in the atoll country"
''IHAT's hell of way to win war;"
said.
Heating was too hot to get mad. Its
a lot tougher than the fighting, sometimes.
These CTS do all the deadly, monoton-
Gus - but necessary - jobs that give the
other guys chance to make with the
hero stuff And they don't get much credit"
blinked at the glaring sand and Won
dered how these guys could ever be repaid
for sweating out the war on hot rock like
this. About the only way, l guess, is to
make sure they never have to do it again.

berts, Marshalls, Marianas. Phoenix
and Volcano Islands. Maxim, Tarawa,
Kwajalein, Saipan, Tinian, Two Jima
and Okinawa are almost as familiar
as Forty-second Street to Keating
and Sher.
They got the idea for the series
when servicemen who had furloughed
at home told them how little civilians
knew about the Pacific.
THIS WEEK doesn't know where
the writers are just now. Last reports
had them working out of the Pacific
Fleets Advance Headquarters at
Guam, where the two Army men
were busy arguing with the Navy and
learning that wall is bulkhead.

About the men who sweat out

CoMEBoDY said, There it isl" And
- everyone got up off the floor and
looked out of the planes portfolios.
Kwajalein, in the early morning, looked
mbelievably beautiful, the way every coral
island looks from eight thousand feet.
"Oooh, pretty!' said one of the nurses,
looking down at the atoll.
We circled the island and went in for
landing. At five thousand feet, Kwaj still
looked 'oooh, pretty" At two thousand
it began to look lonely. At one thousand
feet it looked like fiat, hot rock covered
with sand. At five hundred feet, it looked
like hell.
As we rolled along the airstrip, the in
side of the plane began to heat up. When
the plane stopped and we climbed out,
the glare was binding. We stood and
blinked at the men who came out to meet
the plane. They looked at us with dull,
uninterested eyes.
/ LOOKED at Keating, who was looking
as happy as hangover.
''Sher," Heating said, why don't you

Roger, the rock-happy fellow, is not
