Mendus Home After Four Years In
Aleutians With Secret Bomb Squadron

Just returning to the United
States after 10 months in the
Aleutian Islands is S/Sgt. I. r.
Mendus, Of 1046 Eureka road, Wy
andotte, who served as an Engin-
eer Gunner with the 77th Medium
Bomber Squadron, first aerial COM
bat unit to go overseas after dec
laration of war by the United
States and veterans of Japanese
attack agains Dutch Harbor, Alas
ka. and the Attu, Kiska and jap
arese Kurile Island campaigns.
The 18th Bomb Squadron, alerted
for overseas shipment two days
after Pearl Harbor, were still
fighting the Japanese in the Kuriles
when the enemy finally offered to
surrendered. During this period,
the Squadron set up an enviable
combat record. Battling the Aleu-
tian weather as much as the enc
my, they rose up from secret Aleu-
tan bases to intercept a Japanese
carrier task force attacking Dutch
Harbor June 8 and 4, 1912. They
then drove the enemy back to
KiSka and Attu, where the JapS
settled, and where they were given
no rest by the 77th until Americans
regained those Aleutian Islands.
Of the many notable firsts Of
the 77th Bomb Squadron was the
July 10, 1943 Mitchell bomber raid
on Paramushiru and Shimushu
Islands in the Kuriles. That was
the first time Japanese home
islands were raided in the war, with
the notable exception of General
Doolittle's famous Tokyo raid from
the Carrier Hornet the year before.
Itself virtually wiped out four
times during overseas service (49
medium bombers LOST, the 77th
conducted 81 bombing missions
against Kiska, seven against Attu,
and 146 missions against the Kur-
lies, for a long time the longest
overwater mission Of the war.
During this period, nth Bomb
Squadron shipping sweeps cost the
enemy at least % cargo and war
ships and transports sunk, seven
probably sunk and 80 damaged. At
least six Japanese aircraft were
shot down. nine probably destroyed
and 30. damaged.
Because Of the secrecy Of Aleu-
tian warfare, the existance Of the
77th Bomb Squadron was never
made known publicly from that
day in Spring Of 1912 when they
flew out to their secret Aleutian
bases. until the wars end.
S/Sgt. I. r. Mendus reported for
duty with the 77th on Nov. II, 1914
Since that date, he has seen ar
duous and courageous service,
whether flying against the enemy
o, servicing aircraft or otherwise
maintaining the squadron in the
lonely. weather-whipped Aleutians.
Indicted into the army at JEFF
ferson Bks., st. Louis, Mo, Oct.
q, 1912, he attended Army and AAF
schools at Sheppard Field, Texas,
Engineering School, Fort Meyers
Gunnery School Field, r. T. o.,
Greenville, S. C.
In civilian life he was a sheet
metal worker at the Murray Cor
poration, Detroit.
S/Sgt. I. r. Mendus has been
awarded the Aid Medal, the Bronze
Star to the Asiatic Pacific Ribbon.

NO CHANGES IN
 48 HOUR RULING
Unless Unusual Conditions Exist War Plants to Ob-
 serve Govt Order

A Waterbury plant which asked the War Manpower Commission for permission to reduce the work-week from 48 to 40 hours was denied per- mission following a hearing of the petition by Mrs. Mary M. Dewey, area WING director, and the area WING iabor-management committee last night.
 Mrs. Dewey, who did not disclose the name of the concern, stated the committee felt the reduction should not be allowed.
 A reduction to 40 hours, however, was permitted for one department in plant, which temporarily lacks materials, it was reported.
 Likewise reduction from 48 to A hours was permitted to small local office which emp.oys seven worker.
 Mrs. Dewey pointed out the WING has been allowing reduction of hours in individual cases uf workers for urgent reasons, and that from time to time small groups of workers have been granted a reduction in hours. Mrs. Dewey said it has been the policy of the WING to allow a reduction from 48-hour work-week if the longer week appears to be a waste rather than help to the war effort.
 It is understood that other plants of the area are drawing up requests fop permission to change the work week hour, and further hearings are expected to be scheduled shortly by the WING committee.
