Caucasus,

Without adding its ovm comment, the Berlin radio quoted the Madrid Ilewllpflper ABC as sayinfl that while the "Caucasus landing" was primarily reconnaissance it "might well be the opening gun for l. wholesale offensive."

“The Caucasus does not mean only oil," said ABC, "but it is more. over the road between the British Empire and the Soviet Union. Tur- key is playing an important role

.watchin closely all develop- ments whic might affect Turkish neutrality."

ABC spoke of the ssibllity that "developments" wouigo force Tur- ke “to decide for one or the other sl e of the belligerents."

Veil of Secrecy

The veil of secrecy about United States planes in ‘hlrkey. some of which were damaged by gun fire with injuries to some crew- men,.was held tight by official sources in Washington, Ankara and London. Military experts believed the bombers operated from bases in the Arab countrles—possibiy in Syria, Iran or Iraq.

United States army sources have asserted that the first announce- ment of "American airforce partici- Eition on any articular front is

ely to come irst from the en- enaylwhen a plane is shot down."

e big consolidateds have such long ranges that they could fly from Syrian airfields easily and hit hard at the Romanian refineries and oil wells at Ploesti 800 miles sway, at Germans in the Crimea, or at the Black Sea ports they hold. The Crimea is only ‘I00 miles across Turkey and the Black Sea.

Enroute To Syrls

Turkish reports indicated the planes were trying to reach Syria when they landed.

ee of the crew of seven in one of the bombers which landed near Izmit. some miles inland from the Bosporus and across from Istanbul, were injured though not seriously. One had a bullet wound in is hand, another was shot. in the leg. The identities of the fliers were withhel

One remote possibility was that the bombers were being ferried to Russia bv a direct route across the Black Sea when they were attacked and driven back by German fight- ers. This, however, was considered unlikely because such procedure would save only a few hours over the safer route from Iran to the Caucasus.

dence that we were in a battle area.

As we travelled the more than 5,000 mile. ‘roundabout route to- ward the Coral Sea. we had kept our airplane patrols out ahead of us. And on May 2. two of these scouts flying together, surprised a Jap submarine on the surface. ‘Ihey dived on him and dropped three bombs. Although the pilots believed the sub Iwar. sunk they could report only that it submerged and a huge patch of fuel oil spread over the ocean surface.

The next day our scouts reported having seen Japanese "snooper" planes at great distances. The snoopei-s escaped by ducking into the hlg-h cumulus clouds that were scattered far and wide over this ocean. ‘

The clouds and the snooper planes raised the vigilance of every one of the flotilla. They got the "dong. dong-dong. dong-dong, dong. dong" of the gong accompan- ied by 1119 1011i! trumpet calls of "battle stations" several times daily.

Most of these alarms came after the ship received radio calls from the air scouts. I spent hours in the radio room. listening to the conversations bet-ween the scouts in the air and between the scouts and the ship. The pilots have cvoliuai a. secret code. partially slang of their own for transmitting infor- mation. They patrolled in pairs, each having a girl's name.

When possible our pilots would name the type of Japanese plane- Mltsubishi, Nakajima, Kawanlshi. the latter a four engined flying boat used for long range patrol, or "1110091118." as the pilots say.

We were moving northwest, ap- proaching the Solomons, the after- noon of May 3 when a scout called the carrier:_

Jean to carrier. Contact, Concen- tration enemy shipping Tulagi har-

Tulagi f. the capital of the Solo- mon Islands, which are normslv British territory. It ls the one good harbor of the entire Solomon group. Tulagi is on the southern tip of the island 0f Florida. one of the smallest of the Sdomons. but pro- tected on the south by the larger, mountainous island of Guadalcanal and on the northeast by Malaita. All are rugged. with peaks that climb to 6,000 feet.

Throughout the following night long the flotilla knifed its way at 25 knots northward. There was moonlight and brilliant starlight from the milky way, now and then obscured by big floating clouds.

I stood on the flight deck and looked at the fleet. drawn in close together. It was a wonderful sight, one I'll never forget. sliding along as we were at terrific speed for ocean vessels, one got a magnifi- cent sense of power.

One carrier stood off to protect the force from flank or rear at- tack and in preparation for launch- ing of fighter squadrons to protect the other carrier. The airplanes were launched at 6:15 a.m. the first group being 18 Douglas mono- plane icout bombers. These were followed in a matter of seconds by the same number of heavy dive bombers. Last off. less than five minutes behind the leading scout, were l8 Douglas three place torpedo bombers.

The scouts spread out fn pairs and beat a s/wift patrol for 50 miles over the sea in all directions around Florida. Guadalcanal and Malalta, without going near 'I‘ulagl arbor. This was done as a pre- caution against the arrival in the area of an enemy carrier during the darkness that also hid our own boats.

Attacking the enemy ships at 'I‘ilagi the first Japanese warning was the moan of an overspeeding engine as the scouts and heavy dive bombers came plunging straight down from their hei ht. Special targets had been selec d by the squadron leaders before these dives started. the largest transport: the three cruisers. one being a heavy cruiser tyPC; three destroyers along- side a seaplane tender. another de- stroyer anchored alone. being mark-
