This week, Aston goes by train across he. U.S. and embarks for North Africa, then is sent by LST to Italy, where he continues (and ends) his overseas military service. Many of his stories are typical of military life pretty much accept what is given you, but sometimes you van fight back. 1, J M ,Sr W mm mm Verl Aston and his wife. We were shipped across the United States to embark for North Africa, and as we passed through Ogden, I gave my Uncle Ellis a letter for my mother. Somebody told on me, so when we got to New York City, everybody else got to go to the Statue of Liberty. I didn't get to go, because I had violated the law in giving out a letter. We landed in Bizerte, Tunisia, Tu-nisia, where we were taken off the ship and put in tents out in a bivouac area that had been prepared for us. Then it started to rain. I told my buddy, bud-dy, quite a nice kid, "We're going up on that hillside and put up our tent." We put two pup tents together, and I dug a trench around them. Then we went to sleep. It rained and rained pouring down all night. When I looked out the next morning, morn-ing, I saw about five or 10 guys, who had set their tents up down in the valley, floating float-ing on top of their mattresses in about a foot of water. : . Later we were taken back down to the sea, put on an LST, and shipped to Bari, on the east coast of Italy. There the Germans started to bomb us. So we went to an olive grove, maybe five miles up the road. We were in that grove for about three days without food. Finally we were given some C-rations, and C-rations never tasted so good. I had never liked them before, and I didn't like them after, but it was food. We were next transferred to Loggia, where I began my work in signal aviation. The amplifier that I maintained main-tained took 175 letters of code a minute, and my job was to tune and keep it at a steady tone. The dots and dashes of the code went downstairs on pdper to a decoder (we were living in a hotel). The codes told the English and American planes where they should fly over certain points in Germany to drop their bombs.

Because of all the radio waves coming through, if you needed a light outside at night, you just grabbed a long fluorescent tube and walked out through the area. It would light up as you walked through the rows of transmitters. You don't realize real-ize how much power there is in those radio transmitters and other apparatus. We were in Foggia for about a year, and while there we had Spam and eggs for breakfast, Spam and potatoes pota-toes for lunch, and Spam and something else for dinner. To this day, some of those soldiers sol-diers won't eat Spam, though I can stomach it now. But the officers were eating steak, and that upset one of the sergeants ser-geants in our barracks. He went out to the railroad where all our food was coming com-ing in and spied on the officers. of-ficers. The captain in charge of the food was backing one truck up to one side of the railway car, and another truck on the other side. He filled one truck with one kind of food, and the other truck with another kind of food. Then he'd sell one truckload to the Italians. Our sergeant caught him, and we got at least one or two steaks after that. We had a commanding officer offi-cer who made us march in formation for-mation from the hotel to work. The men complained, because be-cause there was no reason to have to march to work. But he was a military man. One day he called a meeting: "If I had you guys up on the front lines, there isn't a cockeyed one of you who'd be alive." That made the men mad. I don't know who it was (I was at work that day so I only heard the story), but one of the 250 men in our barracks bar-racks stood up and said, "If you had us on the front lines, there'd be 250 bullets in you." That was the last we ever saw of that officer. Later in Milan, all of us who had had rifle training were taken out for target practice, and those who hit seven of eight bull's-eyes were allowed to come home. But I learned later that the army really wanted to send us to the Philippines to become be-come snipers. We got on the ship USS Washington, and out in the middle of the Mediterranean, Medi-terranean, suddenly all the ship bells rang: "Japan has surrendered."
