I passed a typing test and became a member of the staff of Rear Adm. Newton.
My observations of Japanese naval fighting men, their abilities and equipment led me to believe that they gave a better account of themselves than we did.
Always avoid picking up hitch-hikers who are wearing a mask.
I was assigned to the heavy cruiser Chicago.
After the Battle of Midway there was a week in a rest camp at Pearl Harbor.
Another nice thing was that I would type out letters home for the admiral's stewards. They would then feed me the same food the admiral ate.
