At long last, the boal.s grounded on a shoal itud the long steel gate at the front dropped open, Czarny's men had been trained to get ashore as fast, as possible: when that happened.

They swung the 37 around the other-way and fired. AH this time the French tanks wore banging away at thorn. Suddenly there were two less men. The tanks got very close. Czarny stood alone at the smoking breech of his 37.

I went into a barber shop and had a shave, haircut, shampoo, shocshihe, and manicure When they were through I gave them a quarter. In return they filled my hand with bills and couldn't believe it."
