capture of the Hill," he added.
"Our infantry, along with the
21st New York and others, went
up the hill in the face of the
Spanish fire and captured the

up the hill but the Spanish had
other ideas about that" he said.
Il stopped bullet in my knee

Greece a number of destroyer
escort vessels as part of America s
developing program of arms aid to
anti-Communist governments.
This was reported yesterday by
"a military assistance official. He

ships involved.
Commenting on a news dispatch

vessels will not be destroyers.
Instead. he declared, they will
be 1,240-ton destroyer escorts of
type that played an important
part in anti-submarine operations
in World War II. The destroyer
escorts would be useful for anti
submarine and coastal patrols in
the Mediterranean.
