(Continued
Every troop and cargo ship
upon which we could lay our
handi was dispatched hurried
ly to the Southwest Pacific.
But we had so little!
The transport of personnel
without heavy equipment did
not involve elaborate arrange
ment when fast ships were
available. These vessels depend
ed solely on their speed for
aafety against the submarine.
The British gave us the use
of some of the fastest and largest
passenger ships afloat Among
these was the Queen Mary.
One day we dispatched her,
without escort, from an eastern
port in the United States to
Australia, loaded with 14,000
American troops.
It would have been only bad
luck of the worst kind If a sub
marine had got close enough to
attack her successfully.
Moreover, we believed that
even if one torpedo should
jtrike her she would probably
have enough remaining speed
to escape from any submarine
of the type then possessed by
the Germans.
However, such probabilities
eould provide no assurance that
the would get through.
On that trip the Queen Mary
had to put into a Brazilian port
for fuel. We were horrified to
intercept a radio from an Ital
ian in Rio who reported her
presence to the Italian govern
ment and upon her departure
actually gave the direction upon
which she get out to sea.
For the next week we lived
in terror, fearing that the axis
might be able to plant across her
path such a nest of submarines
in the South Atlantic as to make
it almost impossible for her to
evade them completely.
I do not remember whether
General Marhall knew of this
incident at the time, but it was
the type of thing that we kept
from him when possible.
There was no use burdening
his mind with the worries that
we were forced to carry to bed
with us.
He had enough of his own.
Ill
Early in January, 1942, the
chief of staff had announced a
determination to reorganize the
war department for the efficient
waging of war.
Foreseeing that the war de
partment as set up under peace
time laws could not stand the
strain of a long and bitter con
flict, he had a year before as
signed Colonel William K. Har
rison to investigate its organiza
tional weaknesses and search
out a remedy for them.
Although the studies were
eompleted by early winter and a
corrective plan tentatively
adopted, the attack on Pearl
Harbor delayed its execution.
The task of actual reorganiza
tion was now placed in the hands
of Major General Joseph T. Mc
Narney, possessed of an analyti
cal mind and a certain ruthless
ness in execution which was ab
solutely necessary to uproot en
trenched bureaucracy and
streamline and simplify proce
dures. At the same time it was evi
dent that somewhere on the war
department level there would
have to be an agency which
could assemble and concentrate
the sum total of strategic infor
mation for General Marshall's
attention and through which, af
ter he had reached a decision.
his commands could be imple
mented.
This agency In other words,
would be the chief of staff's per
sonal command post.
The creation of the operations
division of the war department
general staff was the answer to
this need; it replaced the war
plans division, where I had suc
ceeded General Gerow as assist
ant chief of staff on February lfi.
On March . I became the first
chief of OPD. Almost simul
taneously I was promoted to
temporary major generalcy.
As I remember It. I was far
too busy then to lake the lime
to thank General Marshall for
advanremenl Ui the grade
whlrh, In our pre-war army,
represented the virtual apex
"and
, ror
from lje it
of a professional military car
eer.
General Marshall gave long
and earnest attention to the
selection of individuals to oc
cupy key spots In overseas com
mands and in the reorganized
department.
In the process he sometimes
gave clear indication of the
types of men who in his opinion
were unsuited for high position
Foremost among these was the
one who seemed to be self-seek
ing in the matter of promotion.
Pressure from any source, in
favor of any individual in the
army, was more likely than not
to boomerang if the chief of
staff became aware of its ex
istence. I was in his office one day
when some one called him on
the telephone, apparently to
urge the promotion of some
friend in the army. His answer
was, "If the man is a friend of
yours, the best service you can
do him is to avoid mentioning
his name to me."
Another thing that annoyed
him was any effort to "pass the
buck," especially to him. Often
he remarked that he could get a
thousand men to do detailed
work but too many were use
less in responsible posts because
they left to him the necessity
of making every decision.
By the same token he had
nothing but scorn for any man
who attempted to do every
thing himself" he believed that
the man who worked himself to
tatters on minor details had no
ability to handle the more vital
issues of war.
Another type General Mar
shall disliked was the truculent
personality the man who con
fused firmness and strength with
bad manners and deliberate dis
courtesy.
He also avoided those with too
great a love of the limelight.
Again. General Marshall
could not stand the pessimist
the individual who was always
painting difficulties in the dark
est colors and was excessively
fearful of the means at hand for
overcoming them. He would
never assign an officer to a re
sponsible position unless he be
lieved that the man was an en
thusiastic supporter of the par
ticular project and confident of
the outcome.
He believed In the offensive.
