 of the Allied military government. Here, Neapolitan's anxious to return to a normal life are applying for jobs to help rebuild their city. Water facilities destroyed by the Nazis. Army engineers distill seawater for drinking from the Bay of Naples. Water that means life or death to thirsty Neapolitan. A tiny American plane comes in for a landing on a boulevard adjoining the bay. From its steps, the commander of the Allied 5th Army, Lieutenant General Mark Clark, here to inspect conditions in the city. On roads back of Naples, American troops skirt the city as they push on in pursuit of the Nazi army. At other points, fresh troops come ashore. Huge invasion boats pouring in reinforcements even under the bonds of enemy aircraft. Reports of foesia captured by the British 8th Army. Wrecked planes that never got off the ground. Nazi prisoners beneath the light guns hurrying to the rear. And African ports, thousands more embark for prison camps overseas. Lumberjacks are cutting great stands of Douglas fir to provide more timber for United Nations war industry. 500-year-old giants of the forest are producing some 2 billion feet of lumber a year. Lumberjacks prepare to float the logs down the river. The Canadian timber crop is on its way to war. The Italian bomber, a 3-motored Silvia Marchetti, streaks for an air base. First of many units of the Italian Air Arm to join United Nations forces as cobaligerants in war against the Nazis. As American and Italian officers exchange greetings, new units of Italian fighter planes roar in. Stas men of the Italian Navy brought their ships to Allied ports, so do these Italian flyers follow the orders of their government. Right now they're enjoying an American meal in the jungles of northern Burma. Lieutenant General Stillwell, commander of United States forces in China, directs American trained and equipped Chinese soldiers as they take up new positions across the Salween River. Close the wilderness in which he fights. Hacking through the jungle, advance units are constantly in contact with Japanese patrols and keep the skies clear of enemy raiders. And American and Chinese nurses work hand in hand carrying for the wounded. Chinese troops, equipped with new lend-lease material from America, push through roads still muddy from the rains of the monsoon season. Planes of the 14th United States Air Force are on the alert. Broad Pacific, the greatest task force of ships and planes ever assembled, steams to attack the Japanese on Wake Island. Flat tops bearing more planes than have ever before been carried into naval action, ready their fighters and dive bombers for the United States Navy's second major assault upon this vital enemy-held stronghold. Creating some 4,000 miles from the United States mainland, the Navy moves into waters less than 2,000 miles from Tokyo. It was here the Japanese attacked American Marines, even as their emissaries in Washington were talking of peace. Now through the cottony puffs of clouds, Wake Island's strategic three-square miles of sand and coral lies beneath the bomb sites of United States Navy planes, within firing range of the Navy's big guns. Fuel storage tanks and gun emplacements are our principal objectives. Now comes a low-level bombing attack with the enemy airfield hit again and again. A Japanese ship is caught within the fire of the fighter planes. Hellcats sight and down a Japanese bomber. American losses, 13 planes, and but one pilot. Even this fellow lands safely. More than 60 Japanese planes are destroyed. The Navy leaves Wake Island smoking. More than 700 tons of bombs, shells, and aerial high explosives are dropped. Wake Island as an enemy stronghold is reduced to a battered spot of sand in the Pacific.
