Here we visited the various ancient shrines, such as the TSURUGAOKA HACHIMANGU, Which dates from the year 1828, and the giant stone torii , about 32 feet high, standing on the m leading to the shrine. Our interest was captured by the DAIBUTSU fGreat Buddhal a bronze figure which was cast in 1252.

VMI-212 VMF-212, the Devil Cats , operated aboard the Badoeng Strait as a Close Air Support squadron. Their primary job was to blockade enemy shipping and knock out supply lines that the enemy was using to transport vital material from the north. Also, they concentrated on destroying railroad bridges and troop concentration centers. At times, it was almost impossible to fly because of rain, sleet, and snow. But only, almost impossible, for the Devil Cats who flew regardless . The squadron had its share of honors, the most significant being 2, 000 consecutive barrier-free landings by one squadron. The Marine Devil Cats are originally a reserve squadron from Glen- view, Illinois. Prior to reporting aboard the Badoeng Strait, they op- erated from the USS Rendova and from a land base in Korea. The squadron is part of the First Marine Air Wing. The Devil Cats will be long remembered for their fighting spirit and willing cooperation during their operations with us in the Far East.
