Pacific Forces (Delayed) (U.R)
Second Lt. Alvin J. Jensen,
USMC, recently commissioned
after winning his wings as. an
enlisted man and the first ac
credited ace in his fighter
squadron, shot down his sixth
Jap plane on August 26, al
though all but one of his guns
bad failed, reports from Munda
airdrome revealed today.
In addition, Jensen, who has
logged more than 200 hours of
combat flying in the south Pa
cific, destroyed at least four Jap
planes in a lone strafing sweep
over the strong Kahili airfield
separated from the rest of his
squadron,
Jensen, formerly a flying staff
sergeant, lives at (1236-llth St.

Marine combat correspondent
Staff Sgt. Pen T. Johnson (167
Santa Clara avenue) (Oakland,
Cal., reported that outstanding
of the approximately 25 combat
escort missions and raids In
which Jensen has participated
was a recent strafing mission
over Kahili..
Jensen started with 16 fight
ers late one afternoon, but be
came separated from the forma
tion in a thunderhead. He
fought his way through the
storm clouds and emerged an
hour later alone and only a few
miles from Kahili.
"I brought my Corsair down
to tree-top level, skimming over
a steep hill flanking the airfield
runway," Jensen was quoted as
saying. "At the near end of the
runway were 12 large Jap
bombers. I opened up with all
my guns. Two of the bombers
immediately burst into names.
One blew up, starting a huge
fire. -.
"At the very far end of the
runway I saw at least 10 Jap
Zeros parked wingtip to wing-
tip. As I flew in with Blazing
guns I could see the heads of
several pilots sticking out of the
cockpits. I saw my tracers
strike home. In a few seconds,
two of the Zeros were burning
fiercely. " '
"I made one more run, sweep
ing the entire field with my
guns. I don't think I missed a
plane."
Jensen knocked down his first
two Japs, both Zeros, on April
7 during his first trip to the
south Pacific combat zone. He
became his squadron's first ace
on August 5, during his second
trip to the combat zone, when
he shot down three more Japs
when his formation of 16 fight
ers was jumped by 30 Zeros.
On August 26, while on a
bomb escort mission, Jensen's
division of four fighters again
was attacked by 30 Zeros. All
but one of Jensen's guns had
gone out of commission, but he
managed to shoot down one of
the Japs.
When his last gun quit, Jen
sen reversed positions with his
wingman, 1st Lt. Hartwell V.
Scarborough, USMC, Aulander,
N. C, who got three Zeros to
become the squadron's second
ace. Scarborough knocked
down his first two Japs on April
7.
Jensen enlisted in the marines
in May, 1940, and won his wings
as an aviator in August, 1942.
In Mav. 1943. he was a staff ser
geant when he won his commis
sion as a second lieutenant.

OWNERS COMPLAIN
Los Angeles (U.R) The city
council is up against one of its
toughest and most humanitarian
problems, namely whether to
continue the enforcement of the
ordinance requiring pet-food
dealers to mix a certain amount
of charcoal in horsemeat to ren
der it unfit for human consump
tion. The council Is receiving
scores of complaints from cat
owners. Some complain that the
charcoal-treated meat makes lt
unpalatable for the pets, while
another woman insists that ever
since her whole collection of pet
cats began eating the stuff they
have all been seized with intes
tinal sluggishness.
