Wise Cooks Use
Their Ingenuity
When Points Are Low

Menus don’t have to go begging
just because ration points have been
restored to a great many cuts of
meat. In fact, this is the time when
■1 good cooks will put forth all the
Ingenuity and inspiration they can
stir up.
Less expensive cuts will give ev
ery bit the same nutrition as the
motrt expensive
ones, and with
long, moist heat
cooking they can
be made just as
palatable.
If you do de
cide to splurge on
a roast or a ham
occasionally, use the leftovers up so
cleverly that the family will get a
real palate thrill from them. It can
be done!
And with that In mind, we’re go

This is the fruit season: Fresh
fruit will easily solve the dessert
problem. Here are ways to do
delightful things to fresh fruits:
Fill melon rings with mint sher
bet.
Peel bananas, sprinkle with
lemon juice, cover with honey
and bake until tender. They’re
good with cream.
Marinate cantaloupe balls in
grapefruit juice and serve well
chilled.
Apricot ice goes with grape
fruit sections, orange slices and
freshly sliced apricots.
Serve applesauce hot with
marshmallows folded in just be

Apple pie is the better made
with a little orange juice and rind

CHAPTER VIII
Well, the Air Base General had
to ask us to carry out the mission,
and to ease the monotony we were
glad to comply. Taking the bomb
bay tanks from the ship, we loaded
with five-hundred-pound bombs and
off we went, eight hundred miles
into the Arabian Sea, looking for a
Jap naval force composed of three
warships, five destroyers, five cruis
ers. and two aircraft carriers—with
our one bomber. Due to the low
weather we had to fly beneath the
cloud base at seven thousand feet.
Reaching our patrol area, we
searched until it was necessary to
return to base for fuel. I have of
ten wondered what we would have
done had we had the fortune or
misfortune to find that task force—if
it existed. After all, from seven
thousand feet we could have done
very little damage with a single
ship. Somehow I’m glad we did
not engage the enemy—I always
hated to be a clay pigeon, and
though the future looked dark, there
were interesting days ahead.
Slowly, though, through days in
which some of the others took their
ships to bomb Rangoon and the
Andaman Islands, and finally when
Haynes -returned from Delhi, the
realization sank in that our mission
was cancelled. I have never seen
thirteen crews of bombers carrying
so many broken hearts. Morale
dropped like a stone. On April 21,
when the base took our ships, I
think we would have been justified
in getting stinking drunk.
New orders came (or Colonel
Haynes and most o( us in the ill
fated “dream mission" to report to
a remote base in eastern Assam, on
the India-Burma border, to run the
A. B. C. Ferrying Command. This
Assam-Burma-China transport com
mand was for the purpose of carry
ing supplies to China and Burma,
to make up as much as possible for
the fall of the Burma road.
When Colonel Haynes and I ar
rived in Assam we both considered
ourselves “shanghaied." I could tell,
as we faced each other across the
breakfast table that first morning,
that we both knew that things were
going to be bad. Our status had
changed from participating in what
we considered the "greatest mis
sion in the world," to the insignif
icant task of running a ferry com
mand from India to Burma. Once
again combat duty seemed far
away.
Our first' job was to begin the
construction of other fields in the
area—this was to permit us to have
more than one base from which to
work. For our job was that of being
ferry pilots for both the Chinese
Army and General Chennault's AVG
down in Burma. We were to car
ry high octane gas, ammunition, and
food into Burma, and later into Chi
na. We were soon to find ourselves
returning from Burma with our
ships completely filled and overflow
ing with wounded British soldiers.
Col. C. V. Haynes was boss; he
was Commanding Officer of the A.
B. C. Ferrying Command, and I
was his Executive Officer.
We began our work the day after
we arrived in Assam. This was
April 21. We had thirteen trans
ports manned by the Army and Pan
American pilots. Our job in flying
supplies into Burma wa* a tough
one with unarmed transports, for
by this time the Japanese had
crossed the Sittang and the Irra
waddy and had taken Rangoon.
On April 24, Colonel Haynes and
Colonel Cooper transported a load
of ammunition and aviation fuel to
Lashio for the Flying Tigers, and on
their way back an enemy fighter
plane made an attack on their trans
port. Recognizing the ship as an
enemy Zero, Haynes and Cooper left
the flying of the plane to the co
pilot and went back into the fuse
lage, to ward off the attack as best
they could with Tommy Guns. Don
Old. the co-pilot, dove the transport
until they were actually skimming
over the jungle trees. These eva
sive tactics kept the Jap ship from
coming up under the vulnerable
transport. Just one of the Jap trac
ers in that Douglas would have set
it afire.
As the Jap dived towards them,
Cooper and Haynes and their crew
chief, Sergeant Bonner, fired mag
azine after magazine at the Jap.
This either discouraged him or the
enemy ship lost the transport in a
turn, for they got away. But even
considering the bravery of these
flyers in using their meager arma
ment against a fighter ship, it is a
poor policy to shoot Zeros with Tom
my guns; 45-caliber ammunition is
not very effective against aircraft,
but, as usual in a case like this, if
you have only a pop-gun to point
at the enemy, it helps the morale.
Most of our pilots had been chosen
from the crews of the thirteen ships
of our original mission. Even with
the loss in morale they had suf
fered when the attack on Tokyo was
called off, they were still the best
transport pilots I had ever seen.
Colonel Haynes was a veteran big
ship pilot, and for the last ten
years he had worked in four-engine
bombers. The records that he had
set with the giant B-13 will inspire
the Air Force forever. Here was a
big, cheerful master pilot who never
asked another man to do a job he
wouldn’t do himself. We of the A.
B. C. Ferrying Command looked
upon him as the best, and Haynes
will always stand out in my mind
as one of the greatest officers of
our army. This jovial veteran was
ready to do anything to help win
the war, but we all knew he pre
ferred to kill Japs rather than rustle
freight across to Burma I lived with
Colonel Haynes on one of the tea
plantations in Assam, where we
were billeted with a Scotsman, Josh
Reynolds of Sealkotte Tea Estate.
Major Joplin, whom we called
“Jop,” was another of our pilots.
This man claimed that he had been
born in a DC-2 and weaned In a
C-47. One of the Pan-American pi
lots had made a forced landing with
one of the transports, putting it
down with the wheels up in a rice

paddy near the Brahmaputra. Jop
took a crew to the transport, took
the bent propellers off and roughly
straightened them. With his crew
and some volunteer natives, he dug
holes under the folded-up landing
gear and then let the gear down un
til it was fully extended, with the
wheels down, to the bottom of the
holes. Now he placed heavy tim
bers from the wheels to the surface
of the rice paddy, putting them in
at a small angle to form an inclined
plane. Next he had about a hun
dred natives pull on ropes that were
tied to the wheels, and dragged the
Douglas transport up the inclined
plane until it rested on the more
or less level ground of the rice pad
dy. Then Jop demonstrated that
he could justify all his claims of
having been born in a Douglas trans
port He gave the ship the guns,
and in a flurry of mud and water
and rice stalks, bounced it from the
field and flew it home to base.
All the pilots were good, and they
were eager. The weather never be
came too bad or the trip too danger
ous for men like Tex Carleton, Bob
Sexton, or the others to get through.
The enlisted men were the best
There in Assam they fought a con
stant battle against boredom, ma
laria, and tropical disease.
Even with the hardships we en
joyed the assignment—for after all,
Burma was just over the Naga Hills
and they said a war was going on
over there. Down in his heart, each
man really wanted to do something
to stop the Japs from their rapid
movement to the North through Bur
ma. But we had no fighters and no
bombers. I often heard of plots
among the crewmen for going back
to Karachi and stealing the thirteen
four-engined bombers, but of course
they were just soldier rumors. The
small amount of good that we fig
ured we were doing by flying ammu
nition, aviation gasoline, and bombs
to the AVG was barely enough to
keep our morale above the sinking
point. Personally I made a trip al
most every day over into Lashio and
Loiwing, and some days I went on
farther East to Kunming, China.
One day, during the last of April,
two Chinese pilots landed with two
P-43 A’s. These were good, fast
climbing little fighter ships, the
forerunner of the “Thunderbolts.’'
But their fuel tanks had developed
leaks, and when you added to that
the fact that the turbo was under
neath the rear of the fuselage, the
greatest fire hazard in the world
was born. So far had their ill fame
spread that the ships were ground
ed until the faults could be reme
died. So the Chinese left the P-43A’s
with us and went on back to China.
Colonel Haynes and I fell heir to
the two little fighters.
Sergeant Bonner worked diligent
ly with everything from chewing
gum to cement and finally repaired
the leaks, at least to a point where
they didn’t catch fire right away
on the take-off, as some of them
had done. I took one of these ships
and decided to use it to protect the
ferry route. Even one lone fighter
that could fire back at the Japs
would be a good morale element
for the crews of the unarmed trans
ports.
The job of being a ferry pilot had
to go on nevertheless. As the leaks
developed again in the tanks of the
P-43's, I went back to flying the Doug
las transports into Burma and Chi
na. One day while I was acting as
co-pilot for Colonel Haynes, we load
ed two disassembled Ryan Trainers
in the C-47 and headed for Kun
ming. Besides this cargo we had
some ammunition and food-for the
AVG at Eoiwing, especially a bottle
of Scotch whiskey to be left as a
present for General Chennault.
We landed at Loiwing and deliv
ered the designated cargo. The air
raid alert came just as we were
talking with the General. He didn’t
even change expression, but calmly
said, “Guess we’re going to have
some Japs—you-all had better get
those transports off the field.”
The Flying Tigers were already tak
ing ofT, their shark-painted noses
gleaming in the sun. Lord, but my
mouth watered as I saw them—I’d
have given anything to trade my
Colonel’s eagles and that “delivery
wagon” that I flew for the gold bars
of a second Lieutenant and one of
those shark-nosed pieces of dyna
mite!
But we started the Douglas up
and took off for China with the cargo
of trainers. Even as we cleared
the field and climbed towards the
Salween, I heard the call ‘‘Tally
Ho” from the AVG. and then others
more like “Here come the sons of
bitches." A few seconds later the
Jap bombers arrived over the field
at Loiwing and we knew ail the
transports couldn’t have gotten off.
The AVG radio man, ‘‘Micky’’ Mi
halko, called, “They’re bombing hell
out of the field.” Then, in lighter
vein, he said the Japs were falling
like leaves—or he hoped they were
Japs, for he could see many smokes
from burning planes. Every now
and then we could hear one of the
AVG say to some unlucky Jap,
“Your mother was a turtle—your fa
ther was a snake,”—and then the
rattle of fifty-caliber guns over the
radio.
We stayed low in the gorge of the
Salween until we got to the old
bridge near Paoshan. then turned
East for Yunnanyi. Behind us the
Japs damaged the tail of one of our
transports with a bomb, and also
blew up the bottle of Scotch that I
had brought General Chennault—it
had been left in one of the jeeps
that was hit. But they had paid
heavily for the transport tail and the
quart of whiskey. I believe that
even the Woman’s Christian Tem
perance Union would have approved
of the trade—for the AVG had shot
down thirteen of the Zeros and bomb
ers, while as usual they lost none.
At Kunming, with the surprised
Chinese looking on, we unloaded the
two small training planes from the
fuselage of the big Douglas. Then,
after something to eat, when I had
just about arranged with the AVG
squadron commander to go along
with them on the morning raid into
Indo-China, we received a radio
gram that changed all plans.
Colonel Haynes and I were or
dered to leave immediately for
Shwebo, Burma, down on the Man
dalay-Rangoon Railway, and evacu
ate the staff of General Stilwell. It
seemed that the Japs had crossed
another place on the Irrawaddy and
were about to capture the entire
American Military Mission to China
—the Ammisca. We didn’t even
know whether or not there was a
landing field in Shwebo, but I found
it on a map and in the late after
noon we took off for lower Burma.
We flew through black storms all
the way to the Mekong; then, turn
ing South, we found better weather,
even if we were getting into Japa
nese-controlled skies. We landed at
Myitkyina and while servicing (so
that we would have plenty of fuel to
take General Stilwell anywhere he
wanted to go), we learned from a
British pilot that we would find a
small field to the Southeast of the
town that was our destination.
Flying as low as we could without
hitting the tops of the jungle trees,
we followed the Myitkyina-Manda
lay railroad to the South. We knew
that all the British had evacuated
the area about Shwebo except for a
small detachment left with the
wounded; so we were expecting trou
ble. I know that neither of us had {
ever before been so careful at watch
ing the skies. I had my ever-ready j
movie camera right by my side, but j
in the excitement I forgot to take j
pictures as we flew over the burning
towns of central Burma. Long after
wards. Colonel Haynes told everyone i
that I had missed the best pictures
in the world, but I imagine he would !
have dumped me out of the ship if I
had raised that movie camera in- j
stead of diligently watching the
skies.
All the country ahead of us was
marked with columns of black
smoke, rising straight into the clear
sky. We looked for hostile ships un
til our eyes ached—or for any ship i
at all, for we knew it would be a !
Jap, ours being the only Allied plane
in the air. We had been flying those
unarmed transports so long that both
of us had become used to it. Behind
us in the empty cargo space I could
see the crew chief and the radio op
erator searching the skies on both
sides, with their inadequate Tommy
guns at "ready” position.
