FERRELL WHITES
A letter from Cpl. John C. Fer-
rell of the United States marine
corps was received recently Dy a
Klamath Falls resident. Ferrell
is on the USS Montpelier in the
South Pacific theater of war. and
due to action by naval censor-
ship, he was allowed to picture
the recapture of Corregidor as
he saw it. Ferrell writes:
"Sometime aeo. we had a ring
side seat, and gave naval support
fire for the landing on Corregi
dor. Watch for the pictures in
Life magazine you might even
see us in it.
' " The'' Rock' was well plas
tered with army bombers early
in the morning, and then just at
8:30i the paratroopers arrived.
Soon the air was full of para
chutes of varying colors. , They
looked like highly magnified
raindrops in slow motion. It was
a marvelous sight to watch, the
transport planes coming in, one
right after the other, dropping
their load of chutists. You could
see the transports coming in for
miles, like heavy traffic on an
caster Sunday, prooaoiy on a.
6th street
: "Then the troopers began to
land on the beach, and the whole
operation was beautifully coordi
nated, each element Dlaying its
part perfectly. All this time the
air was full of nlanes of all
kinds fighters, bombers and
