I couldn t move my legs then, but all that seems wrong now is my back and pain In tho pelvic region. When I wns feeling to sec If I was bloody I found my rosary. I found It in my vest and felt much relieved. We were In the raft about ten hours before tho destroyer es cort Tills picked us up. Later wc were transferred to the Casa blanca.
