Cleveland. Ohio. Sept. 1—You'd have almost thought that this thriving Lake Erie city had been playing host for the past three days to a Hollywood premiere.

There were no Hopes. Crabies . Crosbys or Bergmans in a t tend-ance. but the names of great s ta rs that have been repeated time and time again dur ing the past 72 hours have made the movie greats look minute in comparison. The talk has been, not of which cinema per-former would win a coveted "Oscar" for his or her perform-ance. but of which pilot would cap-ture the Thompson. Bendix. Good-year and Tinnerman Trophy races.

Names such as Tony LeVier. Chief Lockheed Test Pilot; round-the-world-soloist Bill Odom: c ross country flier Paul Mantz; Col. Ros-coe T u r n e r : Marine Major Marion Carl, holder of the Mn rt^'« fn.-aest mile; and stunt flier Bevo Howard have been on the lips of 170,000 air en thus ias t s s ince ear ly last Sat-urday morning. Add to this list of g rea t s the P-80 Shooting S ta r i jet propelled Army a i r c r a f t ! . P-63 Kingcobra. P-51 Mustang. F4U-4 Corsair . B-29 Superfor t ress , the Navy's Fireball jet plane, and the Navy's precision-flying quar te t te .

When he died March 18 th is year , ef for ts were made to find some relat ives to in-sure Charl ie a decent burial . None were found.

After h is body had been taken to the city morgue at Bellevue Hos-pi tal . it was announced that un-less h is body was claimed with.n th i r ty days he would be buried in Po t te r s Field.

A Federa l court r epor t e r recall-ed his r e fe rence to the Corps and contacted the Marines in New York. Burial was postponed and an intensive search of the records were made. Af te r near ly exhaus t -ing all the records in the search, as the "investigators were beginning to give up hope, his fingerprints were found in* the Phi ladelphia Navy Yard records.

AES 46 who were among the •st forty Marines to t r a in at tkehurst. New Je r sey , helped to struct a total of four thousand ira-Marines needed to form the ur commissioned ba t ta l ions of ooper* and as rep lacements for e groups. These last two a r e Sgt. E. C. Anderson and M Sgt. A. Anielski.

It was late in 1940 that the eanization originated at Quan-go and was t r ans fe r r ed to Lake-irst. There were for ty men that ade the first j u m p the re in No-mber of that year . Of these men me went to Camp Le jeune and e rest to Gillespie P a r a c h u t e •aininp School. Cal i fornia , to be-n the job of making a formidable rce of Para-Marines . Within a on time the first combat platoon

was commissioned at Camp Elliot. Cal ifornia.

This first platoon of t roopers in-creased in size unt i l they became the Firs t Pa ra -Mar ine Battal ion. It was in J u n e 1942 that these men were shipped to New Zealand and oecame par t of the t ask- force that was enroute to Guadalcanal . On Ju ly 7 they landed on the beach of Gavuto Island .

Dur ing the p r imary invasion of the Solomon Is lands the a t t ack of Gavuto met with the heaviest re-s is tance. For seventy-two hours the Para -Mar ines were held the re with no relief. However. 1400 J apanese were killed the re in those few hours .

When they were taken f rom Gavuto the F i r s t Battalion joined with the Raiders in the defense of Tulagi . For th i r ty days they were out of touch with the supply de-pots and had to live off the "fat of the l and" : which in the Pacific mean t roots and J a p rice. They par t ic ipated in pa t ro ls and pre-dawn a t t acks at that t ime.

Final ly the Para-Mar ines were sent with the Raiders to t h e quietest spot on the Canal. Then on September 13. 1942. all-hell broke loose and that spot became known as "Bloody Knoll ." In that twenty- four hour bat t le two thous-

I and men of the Firs t Imperial I J apanese Army were killed. But ! when the Marines were evacuated. | on the twenty-second of the month, theer were only sixty walking Para -Mar ines of the ent i re Firs t Battal i lon.
