was about to return to America on
leave, higher headquarters asked
whom would be like to command
the battalion in his absence. Cate
gorically the answer was Maj. Tay-
lor. Col. Roberts pointed out that
with Maj. Taylor in command, the
battalion would remain at the same
high level as he had left it. But with
a new commander in the saddle, It
would be exceedingly unlikely that
the battalion would maintain it's
prestige.
On the eve of the commanders
departure for America he was OBJ
viously saddened and depressed.
This aroused the attention of his Of
ficers at dinner one evening. They
questioned the reason. In reply he
said he was afraid lest some high
authority might unduly upset Maj.
Taylor's equilibrium during his ab-
sence. eff he can be left alone to
work as he knows how, | am sure
that the battalion would live up to
the high reputation that it has es-
tablished,'' said Col. Roberts.

NEGRO MAJOR DISTINGUISHED
AS BEST 0pERATI0NAL OFFICER
IN 9TH AIR FORCE
BIZ Rudolph Dunbar

BERLIN, Aug. A (ANP) =
There still remains plenty to be told
about the invasion on D-Day lead
ing up to the defeat Of the Ger
mans. Besides the combat units, the
ON truck battalions have done a
Job that no one can adequately des-
cribe. What | have seen on these
ON units in the ETO makes me
feel that their remarkable achieve
ments have not cleaned brilliantly
enough.
Take for example, the 1916 ON
battalion, mobile aviation. Of this
battalion, it is said that it was the
backbone of the 9th Air Force Serv-
ice Command. The morale of this
battalion is the highest | have seen
in any Negro unit in the ETO.
This is due to the influences the
commander, 1t. Col. Roy L. Rob-
erts, has over this man. But the
successful operation Of the battal-
ion is due to the Negro executive
officer, Maj. B. Taylor from Hart
ford, Conn. He is reputed to be the
best operational officer in the 9th
Air Force Service Command.
Maj. Taylor is perpetually stim-
ulated by an influx of new ideas.
The commanding officer never
mentions himself alone in speaking
about the battalion but instead it is
always Taylor and l." They think
alike and are inseparable.
eve worked together side by side
since January, 1943," said the Com
mander. .'When / came into this
battalion, l discovered that Maj.
Taylor had the confidence and re-
spect of all the men. Thereupon |
gave him full authority to run the
battalion. Moreover, | believe that
an executive officer should run an
outfit" ;"
When the Major was a first lieu
tenant, he was doing the work Of an
executive and operational officer
when the job called for the rank of
major. From Sept. 1, 1943, to
March, 1915, his work was second
to none. During that period he was
directing the operation of 20C
trucks hauling bombs and air force
supplies. In June, 1943, the four
companies under his control car
ried over $4,000 tons of valuable
material for the preliminary build
up of the invasion. On Jan. l, 1914
he was made captain and Dec. Is
of the same year promoted to ma
jor, due to his outstanding knowl-
edge of affairs. He was subsequent
ly recommended for the Bronze
Star medal.

LIVES MUST BE SAVED

sour thinking and planning
in this war has been governed
by certain basic principles. To
win the war was the primary
objective. We have given the
lives of our Young men and'our
dollars into the trusteeship of
the armed forces and have
charged them with the task of
delivering total victory.
But we have insisted that
these three things-yictory, lives
and dollars-must be kept in
proper perspective. Victory
must be won at whatever cost
i'm lives and dollars; and lives
must be saved, at whatever cost
in dollars"
