While in the New Ilebric dies he applied for a transfer to the air corps, but his orders were dc layed soniewhat. At Guadalcanal lie was promoted t' the rank of Licut. (jg) and attached to a photo graphic unit of the Air Intelligence. \When asked what he thought of Guadalcanal he said, "It has been called anything from an Island Par adise to a Hell Bole but it would be a nice place to spend a honeymoon wit Ii a few modern conveniences such as a white woman. There were no signs of civilization there as far as the cyc could see (and that wasn't far)." The "boys" are certainly doing a wonderful job out there.

When asked about living con ditions he said that their "homes" were tents with floors made of Jap crates. "Japanese equipment was strewn all over the place and much of it was put to good use. Some of the fox holes that we often crawled in were made and used by the Jap anesc. Screens for the tents were made of split mosquito netting. About the only building there was the olTice, a pre-fabricated quonsted hut built by the Sea-Bees." "One (lay while I was talking to an Australian soldier guarding a runway, the Aussie told mc of an experience that his group had with a Japanese soldier. It seems that the Jap hid in the brush nearby dur ing the (lay and at chow time he would get in line to receive rations along with the rest of the men. At this point the Aussi drew up all of his fury and sair, 'you know, pard ner, we ncvcr would have caught that bloody Jap if he hadn't kept cnming through for seconds'." "You hear and see many funny things like that.

"One of the strangest adventures that I had there happened while I was asleep one night. All of a sudden I felt a quivery feeling in my stomach. I got up and rubbed it and went back to bed only to feel the same sensation in my back. I got up and rubbed it also, by now I was getting worried.
