In a Pacific theater report sailors discovered their new dungarees were issued for SPARS and WAVES use. The Navy had shipped feminine garments for aboard voyages, prompting official urging that sailors do not need new pants.
The report chronicles Japanese forces attacking Hopevale in the Valley of Hope on December 20, 1943. Captain Kunoji Watanabe led executions that killed eleven American missionaries and several others including four children, with fires later set to erase the crime.
The report recounts Enano probing a grave at a mission where Engracio Alora and neighbors verified the tale. It notes black Hawaii beach sand from ground lava at Kalapana and mentions Batley bridge tools and a 100 foot span assembly in hours.
