There could be quite a story on where he was during those 18 months in the Pacific in which he earned a silver star, for five battles, and two bronze stars. However, Gage, former employee of The Post-Standard 10 years, has been too many answers to the five Ws of newspaper writing pass thru his linotype machine. His orders say not to talk to the press--and he's not talking, even 'off the record.' 'It was all in the papers,' he said. 'I was in seven major battles. That's all.' he did admit that his ship reached the Pacific after the battle of the Solomons and that the Philippines battle had started before they left the scene of action. On the innocuous topic of food, he explained that sailors didn't have to dream of ice-cream as on the ship there was a 'gedunk' stand (ice-cream bar) with a couple of flavors available each day.

Edward Gage, E.M. 1/c...is also a member of the Alabama's crew. One of the raids against the Nip homeland was uneventful, but during the other operation the 'Mighty A,' as the man-o-war is known to her crewmen, ran into a hornet's nest of Jap suicide pilots. Scores of the Kamikaze planes were shot down outside the task force formation, but at least four came in close enough to be splashed by the guns of this and other ships. The Alabama gunners claim credit for downing two of these planes and for assisting in destroying another. One Kamikaze, a Zeke-type fighter, flew through the clouds of ack-ack before singling out this ship as his target, but as he turned to make his death run his plane was hit and crashed flaming, a scant 300 yards away. During her bombardment assignment, the Alabama turned loose her 5- and 16-inch guns to pulverize Jap shore installations. The typhoon the battleship experienced pounded the 35,000-ton vessel for hours, causing her to pitch and toss heavily, but she (incomplete)," The Eagle-Bulletin, 8/24/1945.

It is the first sign of the Red Cross, beside the small office that they have at each field, that I have seen. There are a number of these places in large towns over here in North Africa. I have moved since the last time I wrote, and my address is different. I am getting a little more training over here than I did back in the States, and I feel much better about it. At present I am getting checked out as first pilot, which means that I will be able to take over a ship and crew of my own. It will probably be quite a while before I do, but you can never tell. I am seeing quite a bit of North Africa, but haven't been in the middle of it as yet. I am listening to some good records here in the officers' club which is coming over the radio from the American Expeditionary Radio Station in North Africa.

The Eagle-Bulletin, 6/9/1944. "George Gregory was a top-gunner in the Army Air Forces during world War II, flying in B-29 bombers over the Himalayan Mountains. That experience launched a life-long love of aviation. 'My father bought his first plane when he returned from the war,' said Mr. Gregory's son, Groot, of Boston. 'He purchased it for about $100, and then he learned to fly.' Over the next five decades, Mr. Gregory's passion for flying expanded to include the restoration of antique airplanes. His pride and joy was the 1929 Fleet 16-B -- a two-seater biplane powered by a radial engine -- which he had been building from scratch for the past 35 years. He started it in his basement. When it outgrew that space, he built a large garage to continue the construction. 'The fuselage was in our basement for about 15 years. My mother always referred to it as a very elaborate clothes hanger,' Mr. Gregory's son said. 'We used to hang all sorts of stuff on it.' When Mr. Gregory died of skin cancer Wednesday afternoon, the World War II-vintage aircraft was within one month of being ready for its maiden flight. 'We were going to bring it out this summer and take it to my hangar in Chittenango to finish it up,' said Lyle Stedman, Mr. Gregory's friend of many years, a fellow pilot and airplane builder. 'But then George got sick, and we weren't able to get it out here. I told George's daughter yesterday that I would love to finish it as a memorial to George,' Stedman said. 'I would love to finish it and fly it in his memory.' Mr. Gregory was 74 when he died at his home on Duguid Road in Manlius. His family and a few close friends were by his side...Mr. Gregory was a Fayetteville native and a graduate of Fayetteville High School. He graduated from Syracuse University, where he played in the band. A French horn player, Mr. Gregory belonged to many musical groups over the years...In 1970, Mr. Gregory founded G. G. Gregory in Manlius. The company sells filtration equipment. In the mid-1970s, when Mr. Gregory and his family moved into a larger house and he built an over-sized garage for airplane construction, the second floor of the garage was divided in two. 'Half was the office for the company, and the other half became a place for my father and all his musical friends to practice,' Groot Gregory said...Mr. Gregory was president of Fleet Club and publisher of the International Fleet Aircraft newsletter. He was a member of the Experimental Aircraft Association and the Stockbridge Valley Flying club...Surviving Mr. Gregory, in addition to his wife (Vivian) and son, are two daughters, Jonet Gregory Vandervelde of Charlotte, N.C., and Laurel Gregory Corbett of Syracuse; two sisters, Anne Bunce of Chapel Hill, N.C., and Jean Munger of Fayetteville; a brother, David of Feura Bush, Albany County; three grandsons, three granddaughters; and several nieces and nephews," The Post-Standard, 9/19/1997.

Gregory, Lou. Formerly Manlius. "Lou Gregory, high school principal at Cleveland, on Oneida Lake, and one of America's outstanding distance runners, today was commissioned a lieutenant (s.g.) in the United States.

(sg) Lou Gregory...has completed training at Chapel Hill, N.C., and is home for a five-day leave in travel, on his way to the University of Iowa where he will take a place on the training staff of the Navy's Pre-Flight Sea Hawks station. Gregory ran the fastest two miles of his career and broke a Southern track mark to win a meet for Chapel Hill recently. He hasn't had an assignment to duty at Iowa yet, expecting this to come after his arrival there Wednesday but he isn't inclined to think it will have anything to do with track work," Bottrill scrapbook, n.d. "Appearing in the proverbial pink of physical condition, Lt. Lou Gregory of the Navy arrived back in Syracuse en route to New York City for the Navy Day program yesterday after 18 months in the Pacific. He has been in service two and one-half years. A winner of many national amateur distance running events, Lt. Gregory had praise for Lt. George Cole of Minoa, with whom he ran on a victorious relay team in Hawaii. Cole was a protege of Gregory when the latter coached Manlius High School to a State class championship in cross-country. Lt. Cole also arrived home for a visit. Lt. Cole matriculated at Michigan State after graduating from Manlius. He served a year and a half on an LST boat in the Pacific, and kept in condition by running up and down on his comparatively small craft in off duty hours. When he arrived in Pearl Harbor, he had only two weeks training before engaging in the long relay run with Gregory. Lts.. Gregory and Cole were on an eight-man Navy relay team which won a 36.6 mile race through Pali Pass in Hawaii. Seven of the eight runners set record times for their legs of the relay. The course was covered in three hours, 34 minutes and 30 seconds. Captaining and coaching the All-Navy team in Hawaii, Lt. Gregory led his charges to an 80-54 running meet victory over the All-Army team on the island," Bottrill scrapbook, n.d. Formerly Manlius.

Hale, Frank Lucien. Fayetteville. Name appears on the Fayetteville Honor Roll. Also served in World War I. "Frank Lucien (Bud) Hale of Fayetteville, famed World War I flying ace, whose official record notes 18 German planes shot down and who received the Distinguished Flying Cross from the hands of the Duke of Windsor, then the Prince of Wales, has been appointed a direct factory Pontiac dealer in Syracuse and has established his agency at 524 E. Genesee st. The quarters, which extend from E. Genesee st., through to E. Jefferson st., are being remodeled and redecorated, and a fully-equipped service department, featuring the newest devices for servicing, oiling and greasing automobile, has been provided, with entrance in E. Jefferson st. Mr. Hale extends his personal invitation to all in this community to visit his show rooms and see the new 1941 Pontiac," The Eagle-Bulletin, 9/19/1940. "Capt. F. L. Hale visited his father, Mr. Frank Hale, last Wednesday enroute from Washington to Dayton, Ohio," The Eagle-Bulletin, 9/18/1941. "In 1917, Frank Lucien (Bud) Hale tried to enlist in the U. S. army air corps. He was rejected as physically unfit. So he joined the Royal Air force, shot down 18 German planes, won two distinguished flying crosses, and came back to Syracuse a hero. Now Hale, twice as old as he was in 1917, has been accepted by the U.S. army air corps. He has been given a major's commission--and next week he leaves for overseas duty. Maj. Hale doesn't know where he is going. When he arrives in the capitol next week he'll be handed sealed orders, telling him where he is assigned. It may be China. It may be England. It may be the Near East. Since last July, when Hale was assigned to active duty as a captain, he has had a roving commission to aid in the production and delivery of aircraft. Based at Wright Field, Dayton, O., he has been flying all over the country, visiting one airplane factory after another--working with officials in scheduling production and distribution of planes. What his next job will be, he doesn't know--and until his week-long furlo is up, he's not worrying about it. He's visiting his father, Frank Hale of "Fayetteville; his brother, Ted Hale, and other relatives. Maj. Hale, incidentally, was founder of the Hale Pontiac Sales company here. Following his rejection by the U. S. air corps in '17, Hale entered training in Canada. He trained at Toronto and Deseronto fields, served as instructor in Texas, and then went overseas. Further training in England was followed by battlefront duty. When he stepped from his plane for the last time after his service on the western front and in Germany, he had 1,200 flying hours to his credit. All of that time, by the way, was flown in the same plane, on the sides of which Hale had painted 'Syracuse.' Six times the 'Syracuse' was shot down, out of control. But each time Hale managed to land safely. His flying comrades used to say he had a charmed life. One of his narrowest escapes occurred when two struts were shot off his plane. Hale had been flying at 18,000 feet, when suddenly a German plane swooped out of the sun and 'got me before I saw him,' he related. 'I fell 15,000 feet in a spin before I got my machine under control. They thought I was a goner and didn't follow me down or they would have got me easily as my plane limped slowly over the lines.' The other times he was shot down he was just as lucky. When he brought the 'Syracuse' to England for the last time, it crashed. The plane would have been junked anyway, said Hale, for hardly an original part was left. In one dogfight nearly every instrument in the plane was shot away, and bullets missed the pilot by inches. In October, 1918, Hale shot down three German planes in one day near Cambral. That was during the big drive in which tanks first appeared. For that action, Hale received the distinguished flying cross at the hands of King George V in Buckingham palace. Later, for what Hale terms 'a similar incident,' he received the decoration again--this time from the prince of Wales (later Edward VIII) aboard H. M. S. Renown, in New York harbor. In his new overseas duties for Uncle Sam, Maj. Hale doesn't expect to be a combat pilot. 'But if I see some Jap planes, I certainly won't go around them,' he grinned," The Post Standard, 3/10/1942. "Frank H. Hale, well known insurance agent and a leader in church, civic and fraternal circles, died Monday night at his home on the Syracuse Road...surviving are three daughters, Mrs. Elbridge Kinne and Mrs. Geo.

But he writes home: 'We are willing to stay and finish the job, but we would like to hear that every last effort is being used (at home) to get it over with. Good news from home in this respect will give us a double boost. We will know that you are behind us 100 per cent, and that weapons we need will be flowing this way in an ever increasing stream.' Sgt. Gordon D. Hale, of Manlius, paints a vivid picture of the Tunisia campaign in a letter received this past week by his brother, Curtiss M. Hale. They are sons of Mr. and Mrs. George H. Hale, Manlius, and Gordon has been in service more than two years in North Africa since last November. His wife is teaching school in East Syracuse. 'When you read in Time for Nov. 30 and immediate subsequent issues about the progress of the British Army, supported by American armored units, we were part of it,' he writes. 'Our baptism took place at a place still very much in the news and came to us through the air a la Stuka. Let me say that is one of the world's most horrible sensations when one of those things comes down on you. We have since discovered their bite isn't nearly as bad as their bark, but we didn't know that at first and so had some rather bad moments. As you have read, we were without adequate air support at the time, and they came over time and again unmolested. Altogether we were in the thick of that first mad scramble well over two weeks and it was a bad time. Some of the British boys with us who had been through Dunkerque said in many respects it was worse than that had been. So, having survived that, I guess we can take most anything form here on. Subsequent action that we have seen has been a great deal easier on the nerves. It makes a big difference whose planes are overhead. On the whole, our outfit has done a pretty good job and has even received a citation for one particular action...Our radio entertainment consists of listening to the news from London each night at 7 except when we're up in the thick of it. However, we have a victrola in the company now, which helps some. We also had a visit from our band the other day. First time we've seen them in Africa." Mentioning reading about manpower shortages 'back home,' Sergeant Hale wrote: 'I'm not going to say that we're glad to hear that you home folks are experiencing different shortages and hardships, but we would like to hear that every last effort is being used to get it over with. We definitely want to make this as short as possible and get back home. ...Sergeant Hale wrote that a picture appearing in Life magazine 'Is definitely not me, although by coincidence there are a number of boys in it from our regiment. It was taken on another ship and 'my double' is unidentified here,' " Bottrill scrapbook, n.d. "Sgt. Gordon D.

"Maastricht, Holland, Wednesday, Sept. 20.--A wild-eye attempt by the Germans to flood and blow up a large part of this ancient Dutch city, as a sort of farewell present, went to pieces due to the combined courage and headwork of the Dutch underground and the American troops working with them. The flooding stunt was frustrated by a doughty band of American engineers, who capture the lock on the Maas Canal which the Germans had mined with the intention of unleashing a 20-foot head of water onto the city. Sneaking up to the bank of the canal under direct observation, engineers, under the command of Lt. E. G. Gro of Emmons, Iowa, lowered rubber boats down its sheer side to a point where eight American infantrymen, hiding in a tunnel, caught hold of them. The American squad then lowered itself and the boats to the canal surface and, accompanied by Gro, paddled 500 yards along it to the lock. There they overpowered a German officer and four men they found asleep and prepared the way for a larger force, headed by Lt. Col. Paul McCollum of Highpoint, N. C., to occupy the lock. They were nicely in position when 90 Germans came along to blow the lock and were neatly put into the bag. The plan to blow up the key buildings of the city began to work when a large package of TNT, concealed in a piano, blew up the building. Capt. Melvin C. Handville of Syracuse, N.Y., knew the answer to this situation. Capt. Handville had arrived at the Gestapo headquarters in Maastrict less than an hour after the Gestapo had left and had nabbed three Gestapo men who were busily destroying documents. Handville decided to give...(them)...a free tour of the town before sending them elsewhere and on that tour he gave them a chance to point out objects of interest. At the end of the trip he had a list of every building that had been mined; they were evacuated, and later the mines were removed. Two blew up before our engineers could operate on them but nobody was injured. Lt. Gro and Capt. Handville always will have a particular affection for Maastricht, and Maastrict, if it knows anything about them, will probably feel pretty friendly towards them. Capt. Melvin Handville, formerly Corp. Handville of the State police, was for a long period with the Fayetteville State police patrol and was known to many in Syracuse and vicinity. He joined the Army in February, 1943, as a private and on induction was sent to Fort Niagara," The Post-Standard, October1944. "A former state trooper with the Fayetteville patrol, now Capt. Melvin Handville, assisted in evacuating from 30,000 to 53,000 Dutch civilians to safety after the retreating Nazis drove them down one main highway in an effort to impede the American advance, according to an account from European army headquarters. He and two American majors supervised the mass movement. Capt. Handville, with army intelligence of the infantry, is credited with uniting a blind man with his Seeing Eye dog after first seeing the dog with a handle on his harness and later meeting the old man groping his way with the crowd. The captain entered service in 1940, leaving Fayetteville. He has a sister in South Butler and a brother, Raymond Handville, with the state department of education in Albany," The October 31, 1944.

When they reached New York they proceeded to look up their old pal Jimmy Hartley, and because none of them had ever been in the big city before they had their troubles. After making a couple of phone calls to Fayetteville, they located Jimmy at the Naval Recruiting Station. Hartley said he wouldn't have been any more surprised if the whole Jap army had walked in on him.

Each vacation, Fritzie, as he is called by those who know him best, came to his aunt's home in Center street. His two brothers, Billy, now a corporal serving in Australia, and Homer H., Jr., now a sergeant with armed forces in Africa, also came, but they were more of an active type, playing ball, riding carts, etc., as Fritzie read and dreamed. So at the age of 20 he went to sea and has been a merchant marine ever since. And now at 25 he has completed his tale of submarines, bombings, heroism and death, giving it the title of 'Dynamite Cargo.' The story is told in a way that is new, vivid and his own. The book gets its name from the voyage of the Jason, which was loaded with dynamite and a member of a huge convoy of cargo ships, American and British, sailing from Britain to the White Sea and Russian ports. During the trip the convoy was subjected to one of the mightiest air attacks staged by the Nazis against shipping since the war began. The Jason got through, but the other ships did not. According to William McFee in the New York Times Book Review Section, and other reviewers, 'Dynamite Cargo' recently published, is regarded as a literary sensation. Miss Lewis of the Fayetteville Library states that the book is at the library. Read her book review on the subject in this issue," The Eagle-Bulletin, 4/30/1943.

"Dear Editor: It would seem from Robert Petch's letter published in last week's Eagle-Bulletin, that the War Department is placing the blame for its own inadequacy in bringing the troops home, on labor. LIFE magazine has this to say in its Nov. 26 issue: 'By last week dozens of this war's invaluable 10,000 ton Liberty ships had joined older freighters in the rusting graveyards of the Mobile River, the James River and Suisun Bay near San Francisco. GIs in far replacement centers demanded that Liberty ships be used to carry them home. The National Maritime Union reinforced the GI plaint, threatened to strike if the War Shipping Administration did not act. Six CIO Maritime unions have been joined by one independent union in urging President Truman to investigate the failure to use 20 ships lying idle in the San Francisco area. The ships could carry anywhere from 400 to 7,000 troops each, the unions said. In New York City, the regional director of the CIO Marine and Shipbuilding Workers listed 11 shipyards where 51 merchant ships could be re-equipped in eight days as troopships capable of bringing 50,000 troops home. He added that there were facilities available in Baltimore, Philadelphia, Camden, Boston and New England ports for re-equipping 125 more ships. I, too, am interested in the truth and sincerely hope that the fore-going information will help to still the long-enduring prejudice against organized labor and give a clearer picture as to why the troops are not getting home quicker. Sincerely, Will Herman, Veteran 3 years, SWPA, Fayetteville, N. Y.," The Eagle-Bulletin, 11/30/1945.

While on a night raid to bomb an island runway near Shortland in the Solomons group, Karker's plane ran into a storm. Suddenly the ship hurtled upward. According to the pilot, action of the dials indicated that an updraft was pushing them upstairs at 2,500 feet a minute. The pilot sent the ship into a 200 mile per hour dive--and still they went up. Fortunately, Karker in the tail-gunner's compartment was wedged in the turret and held on to the armor with both hands. Other crew members were battered about inside the plane. The pilot, fighting the controls, finally succeeded in bringing the ship around in a 180-degree turn," The Post-Standard, 4/23/1944.
