When 1 regained consciousness some hospital corpsmen had me on my feet, my head was pretty groggy and everything was ail . blurred. One of our Navy ships was sending us a blinker message but my head was spinning so fast 1 couldn t read it, all 1 got were two words “go” and ■•surrender” they evidently thought we were Xuzis. All this happened around IbOU, 1 was evacuated the next morning about 1)030 to an L. S. 1. that was still loaded with car go and now it also was loaded with casualties.
