A Mopping up party was clearing the last hold outs from the last dug outs on one of the marshall islands: As a fuse was set to discharge the demolitions a man came running out with his hands held high "don’t shoot, Ive got a brother in brooklyn.” Today, variable cloudiness occasional rain; Tonight and friday, variable cloudiness occasional rain, somewhat colder. -M.C. Excerpts spliced and pasted from Passaic, NJ's "The Herald News." March 16th, 1944 |
