C-47 Crewmen
Equipment To
C1IICO ARMY AIR F1ISLD,
Calif Tho C-47 crewman braced
himself against ' tho Interior iif
tho big cargo plane uud placed
his feel against a pile of supplies
near the open cargo door.
Somewhere In tho piano u bell
clanged, and the crewman
shoved mightily with both feel
und tho cargo fell into space. A
U. 8. forest service ranger leaned
close to tho door uud looked out.
"Right on the noso ugaln."
ho said with a smile und u big
thumbs-up gesture.
Chlco army air field's curgo
carriers hud done It uguin. For
over ii week tho big Kkytrain had
been shuttling between here, an
emergency strip al Montague,
near tho Oregon border, and the
drop area where soldiers und
forest service men were battling
a series uf llghtnlng-ignltcd fires.
Food und flic fighting equip
ment hud been dropped to the
CAAF engineers und pnrnlroop
crs with very little loss..
With the trip lust week, Dis
trict Ranger Rex Deiiney of
Yreku, who lias beeii getting in
more flying time thaif tho aver
age air crewmen, suld:
"Well, that looks like the last
of Iho dropping for some lime.
Hope wo don't havo any more
fires In such lnnccessiblo areas."
And It was rugged, too.
The fire wus burning near the
lop of o ridge, surrounded by
rocky, wild country of deep pre
cipitous canyons mid a definite
dearth of roads. Far to the west
n mirrnu. ulndine sear mi the
I side of a steep mountain was
pointed out as the nearest road
to tho scene of operations. It
was eight miles awuy.
Here's a typical trip to the
fire fighting urea:
After an uneventful trip from
Chlco to tho . Montague strip,
which is not far from the Oregon
border, an army truck loaded
with well wrapped supplies cap
ped with small parachutes to
break the fall met the C-47.
The plane was loaded und
headed west over steudily rising
mountains. The drop ureu wus
122 miles from the airstrip by
truck, and over the worst type of
mountain roads. The air route
wasn't even too good. In order
to fly over the drop ureu at the
proper height, It wus necessary
at limes to fly through deep
canyons capped by rocky peaks,
and over territory whero a
clearing was a rarity.
SSgt. Leonard Driscoll, here
on detached service from Stout
Field, Ind., lashed himself se
curely to tho plane, and lay down
on the floor of the aircraft op
posite tho cargo door. The
rangers piled the supplies in
front of it. and SSgt. Houer T.
Jackson, of Attlcboro, Mass., tho
Drop Food,
Fire Fighters
other crewman, fastened the
'cliuto to ropes I rum llii: plunc,
As tho ' pllols, 1 Lis. i.oyd. R.
Melxler. Jr., and William ft,
lllglit, lined up the plane for
the drop, the bell cluuged and
oul went the stuff which would
keep tho ground men going for
unolher day or two.
All five bundles floated di
rectly into ii littlo clearing utop
u hill, with the fluttened out
chutes euslly murkluK thu place.
Ranger Deiiney explained that
tho clearing wus uboul a mile
awav from the nearest cumn and
ut least eight miles awuy from
the nearest road.
All of the supplies' lilt tho tiny
clearing, although tho chute rip
ped loose from one bundle. How
ever, thai one was of unbreak
able stuff, und no damage re
sulted, "I've really become, airborne,"
Runeer D e n n o y comirfcntud,
"Wo'vo nlrcudy made 14 trips out
here, but now the fire Booms to
be under control."
"Yes, it seems as If we've
dropped more stuff here than wo
did over in Guinea for the Auk
sles around ituua," suid Lt.
Melxler.
Uiit tho curgo curriers have
been doing a Job,, and they've
been putting in plenty of hours
In rough territory without a
hitch.
They are from the Troop Car
rier. Command, and supplies or
men, the C-47 men hero can
luy 'em on a dime.

WITH THE FIFTH ARMY,
ITALY Cupt. Jesse L. Coheu
Jr., Honnii7.ii, recently was
awarded tho Silver Star and tho
first Oak- Leaf cluster to the
Silver Slur medal for galluntry
in action. In Italy.
Ho served on tho fifth army
front In tho .'102nd Infuntry regi
ment of the 81st "Powder
River" division.
Tho. award citation related
"Cohen was ordered to with
draw his company to better
positions in the, roar when they
were pinned' down by Intense
enemy artillery, mortar ' and
small arms fire. Realizing' that
tho enemy had to be pinned
down by our artillery firo to ef
fect disengagement without fur
ther casualties; he personally
ran over 2UU' yards of exposed
terrain under the intense fire
to a position"of observation. At
one point hot came under the
direct fire of an enemy machine
gun sniper. At an exposed obser
vation point, Cohea by his accu
rate fire direction, quickly neu
tralized most of the enemy posi
tions, lie men personally and
bravely directed tho company's
disengagement without further
casualties."
The award citation for ' the
Oak Leaf cluster related: "When
his company was pinned down
on one of its' objectives by in
tense enemy artillery, mortur
and small arms fire, Cohea per
formed most gallantly. Realiz
ing that the company must move
forward from the dangerous
ground, he exposed himself to
direct accurate artillery fire
that quickly neutralized most of
the enemy position, thus reliev
ing his company. Then reorgan
izing his company he started to
renew the attack. Wounded se
verely in the leg at this point
he sent the litter bearers to
otlfcr casualties while he tried
to walk back to the aid station.
He also courageously crawled
through the intense fire to re
lieve a wounded man.
- His wife, June Marie Cohea
Jr., lives on route 1, Bonanza.
