 We come in to the mouth of the Mediterranean, about five or ten miles out of the Waston land. There's a big explosion. We've never seen so many GIs in the water of all year life. And we went as fast as we could, and we picked up as many as we could. We headed for Oran Algiers in the Mediterranean. We got rid of all the Germans, I guess. And we headed back through Algiers, over the mountain, and we came down and we was in Tunisia. When units of the First Armored came ashore at Oran in northern Tunisia, November 8, 1942, to challenge the Nazis' hold on North Africa. The British were there first, and they cleaned the enemy out of Egypt and Libya. And here, both armies are fighting, and the Germans are in the middle. Our objective was to hold Castering Pass. There was two passes, five pass and Castering Pass. Well, they snuck around five pass and cut us down. We got chewed up pretty bad. We landed on Anzio Beach. And from what I've learned, we got within 15 miles of Rome before the Germans found out. And they shoved us back within, you know, 15 miles around from any corner of where the Anzio Beach was. Every major battle, we defeated the Germans and on up the boot, one of the majors hollered at me. He said, Jones, he said, we want you to get in that plane. You're going back to Naples. You're going home. And their mother guy says, hey, that's pretty good, Jones. He was in the Marines. And he's the one that never come back. He got killed on Okinawa because they were shooting at them this way and they come back. They come back around on the side and they had to reverse, they had to turn themselves. And what I understand is that the major said that your brother was shot twice in the neck, you know, two shells. He said, he never knew what hit him. And that makes me feel good.
