Douglas Wahto arrived Aug. 31, which was also his twenty-fifth birthday anniversary. Sgt. Wahto has an enviable army record, hav- ing served with distinction on many fronts. He enlisted in the Army three and one half years ago and was first sent to the Aleutians during the Japanese occupation there. From that campaign he was transferred to South Africa as a paratrooper; thence to Italy where he was with the troops storming the Anzio Beachhead. He consnued throughout the Italian campaign, where he was wounded May 24, 1943, for which he was hospitalized. From Italy he was sent to France, where he was again wounded Nov.! 7, and was hospitalized in Belgium. Upon his recovery he was sent to the German theatre and on Feb. 10, 1945, was again wounded in action and hospitalized for three' months in Manchester, England, ! following which he was returned to Germany, where he served until his separation from the service. While in Germany he was attached to the same unit as was his brother, Lt.! Gordon Wahto, who has a similar fine record of distinguished service, and who was only recently com- missioned. Gordon will remain in Europe with. the Germany occupa- tion forces, and intends to attend the University of Paris in his spare time. Douglas, after meeting his family and many friends here, will go to Tenakee Springs for a much needed ' rest. Much more could be said of Wahto “The Flying Finn,” but the most important is that we are glad to have him back home ANDREWS BACK HOME 4 Walter Andrews returned Satur- Jiday from Yakutat where he has n employed on construction Swork for the engineers “ REV.
