Battle Cry Page #12

As we neared Baltimore, I remembered High Pockets'

"Make Marines out of them."

Well, we made Marines out of them.

And they led us on the long road back.

Baltimore.

Next stop, Baltimore.

You're home.

It go to sleep on you?

Doc says it'll keep doing this

till they get all the shrapnel out.

- Sure you won't stay over a few days?

- No, thanks, kid.

I got to get up to Philly and see Ski's folks...

...then I got to report to Brooklyn Navy Yard Monday.

Thanks anyway.

- So long, Mac.

- Yeah.

So long, Marine.

Danny!

Dad! Bud!

Marines on lwo Jima!

Read all about it.

Marines on lwo Jima!

All aboard!

For Danny Forrester, the war was over.

For me...

You know how us old-timers are.

There will always be boys to be trained

and battles to be won.

And like I

Politics and wars make strange bedfellows.
