I Received My Parents' Permission

I Received My Parents' Permission And Went Into The Navy On June 3, 1941.

The Japanese Invaded Tulagi, In The Solomon Islands, On May 4.

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.

The Good News Was That Enterprise And The Newly Arrived Yorktown Had Attacked The Marshall And Gilbert Islands. Those Attacks Had A Great Effect On Morale.
