he gave a first hand report Of the
surrender to parliament.
While the end of the war was
officially proclaimed in London
and Washington, Moscow's official
announcement was yet to come.
But Churchill indicated it would
follow after the formal signing OF
the peace agreement in Berlin.
Tomorrow" he said, 1T may
be specially desirable for us to
emphasize the debt We owe to our
Soviet ally whose main celebra-
tons will be taking place then. /"
AS he entered commons, smil-
ing broadly, all the typical stolid-
ness of the house was brushed
aside and the members jumped up
shouting with joy, shaking hands
all around and backslapping one
another. The historic chamber
echoed to the cheers Of the mem
bers of parliament and gallery
spectators joined in the thunderous
reception.
Churchill himself joined in, but
declared firmly 1--WE may allow
ourselves a brief period OF re-
joicing but let us not forget Tor
a moment the toll and efforts that
lie ahead"
Japan with all of her treachery,
and greed remains unsubdued,"
he reminded. 1.-The injury she has
inflicted on Great Britain. the
United States and other countries
and her detestable cruelties call
for justice and retribution. We
must now devote all our strength
and resources to the completion OF
our task both at home and
abroad"
Churchill concluded his. talk; in
commons with these words:
advance Britannia. Long live
the cause of freedom. God save
the. king"
Then on a motion by the Prime
Minister commons in procession
behind the speaker marched to
neighboring St. Margaret's church
for service of thanksgiving.

The king in his message to the

mass which was held at mid
night
BY daybreak we had come to
a standstill. We were as close TO
shoes as we were going with our
APA. Our big warships were
still closer in shore, Smelling IT
with everything they had. and
our planes overhead bombing
Jap gun emplacement.
This was the side OF the is
land where the operation was to
take place. But on the other
side, deep in the south were
more ships carrying the Marines
of the Second Division. At $50
they pulled fake landing and
drew all the Jap troops toward
that end, so that $40 when this
side was 10 debark the going
was pretty easy. In fact so easy
that it scared the men.
They were afraid that the
Japs had a surprise in store for
them, but they didn't have time
TO stop. The Marines moved
northward and the Army south.
In a week or south our part was
secure and we were helping
the Army in the south.
NATIVES FEARED YANKS
Before we hit the island the
Jap soldiers had filled the CT
villains with propaganda that
the Americans were barbarians
and would torture them to
death. When we hit many stacks
of civilian bodies were found
some as many as 100, who COM
nlitted suicide so as not to be
captured by the Americans.
About four days after D-Day
while walking through the hills
here we heard baby crying in
a cave. Taking no chances, we
walked over to see what it was
and found woman with her
baby (about four months old)
and her very aged mother. / was
carrying a riot gun, which looks
lie a shotgun. Figuring that they
might be harboring enemy SOL
diers we told them to come out,
but they we're too scared for q
time
Finally we convinced the
young mother by signs that nei-
Their she nor her baby would be
harmed and they came out; but
the older woman wouldn't
emerge. BY sign language, we
found out that the trio had had
nothing to eat for five or six
days.
I'VE took them up and got
some X rations for them. We
told the mother not to let the
baby eat any of those hard
crackers, but she nodded that
it was o. X, and, honestly, that
baby ate them easier than we
do. Imagine a baby without
teeth eating crackers as hard as
bricks. After they had filled
themselves they were taken to
the civilian stockade where war

a detailed description of native

JAPS WERE FOOLED

The initial invasion OF Okina-
wa, which contrary to many
other invasions saw its most diff
ficult phases as the island was
practically conquered, was a
comparatively bloodless one,
Sgt. Fox writes, due TO clever
maneuver made by the Second
Marine Division.
His description OF the grim
and foreboding Easter morning;
the strange quiet of the Marine
landing, and finally the strange
sights of a Japanese island and
its cave-dwelling population
fills an interesting letter, parts
of which are as follows:

Dawn of Easter Sunday

While civilians marked Eas-

sunrise services and wearing
their newest spring clothes, men
of the United States Marine
Corps, heavily weighed down
with weapons OF war, bent their
knees in prayer at midnight
mass while their transports edg-
ed INTO Okinawas shores under

This vivid description OF a
tense and omenous Easter sun
rise has been given by Marine
Sgt. Fred Fox, of Mount Glenn

his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph

other two sons, Joseph Jr., and
Edward, are respectively with
