McClure of the Balsam Road, has just returned from 22 months overseas, where he took part in two hard fought campaigns. He will have a 30-day furlough here with his family. A machine gunner during the conquest of Guam, Cpl. McClure said the enemy charged his gun like maniacs, bunched in yellow groups as if they were inviting death. They just "didn't seem to mind being killed," according to Cpl. McClure. Cpl.McClure does't know how many rounds he fired during the fierce fight for the Orot Peninsula with its vital airstrip, but he does know that three times he was out of ammunition. Then he bluffed the enemy with an empty gun, while other members of the gun crew braved Japanese fire to bring fresh beltts of ammunition. Cpl. McClure joined Col. Merrit A. Edson's famous First Marine Raid Battalion on Guadalcanal in January 1943, but he said he saw no action on that island. He receiv ed his bap ism of fire in the New Georgia campaign, in which Marine Haiders further established them selves as premier fighting men. A sniper shot McClure through the arm on the sixth day of the bat tle for Guam and he was evacuated. Later when his wound healed he was ordered to the United States for his well-earned furlough. Cpl.
