Then the olana fell anart from the iolt.

A examination revealed it was full of holes. One or two more hits by the German would have finished it off.

"99TII" CHIEF HAS HAD MOMENTS TOO Capt George Spencer Roberts, new squadron commander of the 99t, has had several narrow escapes. Here's his account of one of them: "During the invasion of Sicily our squadron, operating from Africa, was assigned to protect the extreme left flank of American ground forces. On these patrols we flew.Slcilyward, lust above sea level to avoid detection by the enemy, but not near the water, because of the curvature of tne earth's surface. The Germans prepare a warm welcome when expecting visitors.

We don't use radios on such missions unless emergencies arise. On one patrol, I was commanding 12 planes when my motor sputtered ana aiea out 60 miles over the ocean. Realizing the plana would plunge seaward in a few seconds once she started falling and, not being high enough ior paracnuting, J. experienced a frightful ten seconds while doinsr everything I could think of to get me motor started, i turned the lane homeward and the others fol owed suit since it is the practice of pilots to follow the eader everywhere.

Although the gasoline tank I was usinsr was nearlv full. I switched to another tank and the motor roared again. It all hap pened in less man ten seconds, but it seemed nice a lifetime." MIRACLES SAVE BOYS Continuing, Captain Roberts narrated: "I had two interesting experi ences with Flak. On one occasion, the squadron was sent to bomb gun positions over the PanteUeria is land, sneiis from ground battery burst under my plane. The ship zoomed upward as If flung by a giant hand.
