CLOTHES FOR KOREA W hilt still in San Dic o the Bataan officers and crew collected clothing from vari- ous agencies in that city. They were to be distributed in Korea when we reached that area. Upon arrival in the Far East, it soon became apparent that the ship would not get into Inchon, the planned port for the distribution of the clothing. With a little conniving, however, a trip was arranged on the Sasebo-Pusan red ball express steamship. The 7,500 pounds of clothes were loaded aboard the S.S. Aiken ' ictory for the fifteen-hour ride from Sasebo to Pusan. Our goodwill ambassadors w ere provided with box lunches, for no meals are served on this run. Cdr. Arndt, Chaplain Coffee, Ltjg. Holtzer and Ltjg. Griffin delivered the clothing to three agencies in Pusan — the Sai-Dul home for orphans, the Maryknoll Sisters Clinic and the Central Presbyterian Church. It was indeed heart- warming to see the thank- fulness in the eyes of those unfortunate youngsters, said Cdr. Arndt upon his return to the ship. £S)$A
