First George would dance with Eileen and men he'd dance with Maggie. 'I‘hcn Samuel Goldman, the shel- ter marshal, walked fast past the dancers, looking worried. Ho told My Pal George that the incendiar- ies were coming down fast. So George started to leave. But Eileen and lvlnggie were right. there, too- because they were volunteer mem- bers of the East. End Hrewntchers. George says they mentioned at the time that dance frocks were a nuisance. But they went right; out into the fire blitz anyway, each carrying n smnii twenty pound bag of sand because sand puts incendi- nry bombs quicker than a stirrup Dump or shovel. BOMBS COMING FAST My Pal George says he lost track of the girls after a few minutes be- cause those fire bombs were coming down hot and heavy; everyone was Working fast. Sometimes they would laud in the middle of the street and to extinguish them was no trick. Other times. though, a few would strike a wnrtliouse and crash down inside the building. That's when you would rush inside in a, fast-moving effort to locate the incendiary before it set. inflam- mable material afire. That's probably what happened to Eileen and Maggie, George says. They rushed into a warehouse and were trying to locate the incendi- ary when a high explosive struck the building. Nobody knew they were there. N0 one had seen ttrem g0 in. And when the raid finally ended and Eileen and Maggie failed to show up back at the dance. no one knew where to lock.
