bombing planes, but the warning did no good because it was made by an enlisted man and officers paid no attention to it.
 The Navy then had radar on a few ships to warn them of the ap- proach of enemy ships and air craft, and to use in aiming their guns. Now even our little motor torpedo boats have radar.
 Even before Pearl Harbor, in 194O, radar saved England. That country had only a few fighter pi- lots. If they had stayed in the air, to detect approaching Nazi bombers, they would have been worn out. Radar stations on the ground did the detecting for them, so they could rest and rise only when there was need for fighting.
 Moreover, radar on their planes enabled them to find and shoot down German planes at night.
 As a result, these few British flyers knocked down so many en- emy planes, that the Nazis gave up their bombing attacks in the nick of time. Later radar helped to save England again by aiming the guns which shot down unseen rocket bombs"
 Radar, the report explains, even makes it possible to tell an enemy from a friendly" plane when it cannot be seen at night.
 "Radar also played a vital role in the war against the submarine" :" the report continues. Saying there is no night in radar's world" it tells how radar-equipped planes located and destroyed Nazi sub- marines which came to the surface at night, thinking themselves safe in the darkness.
 Radar on our ships also forced the submarines to stop their old practice of approaching conveys on the surface. in darkness and fog.
 Radar on the ships in conveys, and in our great war fleets in the Pacific, enabled these ships to "See" each other in darkness, smoke and fog, and thus stopped disastrous collisions. The report tells true stories which illustrate the amazing accu- racy with which radar aims guns at planes or ships. One story is this:
 "On November 4, 1922, among the Solomon Islands in the South Pacific, one of our new warshipS was out looking for the enemy. Aboard the American vessel, rad- ar, like an invisible searchlight, probed the darkness and discov- cred an enemy vessel more than eight miles away.
 "The big ship lifted its gun mug zles toward the stars. They flashed and thundered. The second salvo. despite both darkness and extreme range, landed squarely on the tar get, which disappeared from the 'radar screen"
 Thus radar even told when the enemy ship was sunk.

By 1889, radar had been much improved, particularly in the pro- duction of compact equipment to send out radio waves, receive them back again after they hit some thing, and tell the exact direction and distance of the object from which they bounced"
 The report says that England, Germany, France and possibly Jap an were also developing radar equipment. It does not mention charges which have been made in the past-that American industrial ists sold radar discoveries to for eign governments, including our enemies in this war.
 By the time of the Japanese at- tack on Pearl Harbor," the report says, both the Army and Navy were using radar on rapidly in- creasing scale.

He instructed all in the patrol
to load magazines for him. Two
men kept him supplied by tossing
full magazines up and craving
back with his empties.
Capt. Murray followed the Ger
mans in their retreat and sent
smoke swirling from a truck load
ed with three 120 nm mortars.
He wounded the driver and five
others who tried to get away with
the vehicle.
Then, having nearly burnt out
the BAR, Capt. Murray crawled
back and personally fired go nm
mortar fire on the enemy, and
forced them away from a valuable
bridge they had planned to de-
stroy.
Leading his patrol in hot pur-
suit, Capt. Murray went from fox
hole to foxhole at the base of the
hill and got 10 prisoners, but num-
Der II, feinting surrender, pitched
grenade at him and wounded
him in eight places.
Capt. Murray then stumbled to
his feet, took the prisoner, and re-
fused to go to the medics until
the whole patrol had dug in
around the bridge site.
Two days later, % bodies were
found with his 80 caliber slugs in
them. This did not include those
he killed with his mortar and gre
made fire or those he wounded or
those the enemy was able to drag
off and bury. In addition, the 100
mortars were captured with 1870
rounds of ammunition.

thing again. 1t was the best plan.
