De Witt, of ;C(mper. Texas, was in such a eriti- cal condition the doctors dared not postpone the appendectomy — leven though a flight of Japanese | planes was approaching and the iKurilcs were in sight. So Lt. Comdr. B. A. Johnson, San Diego, Calif., and Lt. Edward W. Sickles of St. Paul, Minn. rolled jup their sleeves and prepared to | operate. | Corpsman Bernard B. Ziger, Mil- waukee, placed a set of earphones, plugged to one of the ship’s battle circuits, to his ears and started giving the medics a blow by blow account of the approaching enemy planes. If the anti-aircraft guns had to open up, the vibration on the cruiser would have forced the | doctors to halt the operation . | & PHONE 388 195 S. Pranklin l Juneau Dalrles, Inc.
