Description
Summary:"We were at Attu Island moving to Hawaii after the battle," Torres writes. "Now, I have just returned from Kwajalein and the invasion of the Marshall Islands." Hawaii is a welcome change, but he spent 5 weeks in the hospital. "Nothing too different" about those battles, "except, possibly the difference in time staying out in the Higgins boats." Lauren C.
