 THRILLING BATTLE
Crack 34th Infantry Unit Beat Off 27 Japanese
 Attacks

WlLIl the Z4Cn 1nIanJry (VlcLOry) Division in the Philippines-Sergt John H. Hubbard of 4l8 Pine street, Waterbury, Conn.,, and his buddies of the First Battalion of this Vic tory" Divisions crack 34th Infantry Regiment have helped write an- other stirring page in American military history in one of the most bitter offensive actions in the cam paign to free the Philippines, 1t has been learned.
 With their battalion far below strength after 2l days of hard fighting, they drove deep behind enemy lines, over back-breaking, muddy mountain trails to seize and hold a ridge to deny Japanese com- manding positions facing our main forces in a crucial valley.
 For more than three weeks they clung to the ridge against great odds. They beat off 27 savage at Jacks, many by superior enemy forces, some in darkness of night during torrential rains.
 4AlCJ OGO lNlpo, ILldLl one per man for the battalion.
 Artillery and motrar shells, hand grenades, rifle and machinegun fire kept them low, day and night, in soupy mud of drenched foxholes. Hot shell fragments, their force spent, showered down on them. Ammunition and food supplies of- ten were delayed when carrying parties had to fight off the enemy to reach the ridge. Muddy, slime coated weapons frequently failed to function. At times they met the attacks head-on in furious hand-to- hand combat to save dwindling am- munition supplies. Acts of individ- ual heroism became commonplace.
 Many men of the battalion be- came ill with colds, dysentery, foot ulcers, fever, but they continued to fight. They knew not a man could be spared, who could continue to carry on.
 When relief unit was sent to the ridge, they closed their part of the mission by leading an attack to drive the Japs from strong posi- tions near the perimeter.
 Fred DiggleS, gunner'S mate first class, will report today at New Lon- don Submarine Base after spending a leave here with his Uncle and Aunt, MT. and Mrs. Charles Slokus, 45 Chambers street.
