5,000 AGGIES CAN’T BE WRONG
LOUPOTS
By REMER TYSON
Written for the AP
VALDOSTA, Ga. (A 5 ) — It was
no day for a picnic. And there
wasn’t one.
The water of the English Chan
nel bubbled and spat as if angry
that the warriors were upon it.
The gate to the landing craft
infantry flopped into the salty
water 2.50 yards from France. The
man with the guideline started out
through the opening left by the
falling gate. A bullet in the fore
head stopped his first step.
George Abood, a young medic
from Valdosta, lifted up the guide
line man’s head. The man was be
yond help.
Laden with a stretcher and med
ical supplies, Abood jumped into
the icy water and struggled to
Omaha Beach.
The Gettysburg of World War
II had begun—D-Day, June 6,
1944.
As German bullets picked up
more fury in the channel, Abood
and his companions headed to
ward Easy Red — their destina
tion tabbed with a military name
filled with irony.
There was nothing easy about
getting onto and holding that
center strip of Omaha Beach, but
it ran, red that day with human
blood.
Abood, now a salesman in a
Valdosta clothim? store, was a
member of the 480-man 6th Naval
Beach Ba.ttalion, a vanguard unit
whose job was to clear the way
for waves of foot soldiers.
For 41 per cent of the unit,
D-Day was death day.
The battalion somehow made its
wav onto Easy Red between 6:15
and 7 a m., then machinegun fire
and shells from the feared Ger
man 88s pinned it between two
small hills.
For six long hours the unit was
at the mercy — and none was
shown : — of the enemy. The tide
and other factors had delayed the
infantry.
Water was at their backs and
a well-trained, disciplined foe was
almost in their faces.
' “You could see the enemy in
the bills. They were dotted all
across there,” said Abood.
“We had casualties lined up
along the beach. We couldn’t go
forward or backward. We could
not do anything. It got rough.”
Abood caught a piece of shrap
nel in his body. Although he got
a medical discharge later because
of the wound, he was not permit
ted to leave Easy Red that day.
“The situation on the beach was
so had that unless a medic was
hit hard, he had to stay,” he said.
Abood was near a gasoline tank
punctured by an 88 shell. Explod-
Seven Oil Wells
Are Found Illegal
AUSTIN (A 5 )—Four crews made
more directional surveys today in
the state’s massive investigation of
oil drilling piracy in the East Texas
Field.
Atty. Gen. Will Wilson said the
surveys already have turned up
seven wells drilled to siphon oil
from adjoining leases.
Roy Payne, a Texas Railroad
Commission employee in Kilgore,
said one of the wells slanted 3,286
feet from perpendicular. He re
ported it angled 56 degrees, using
5,100 feet of pipe in a well bottom
3,500 feet below the surface of the
ground.
Wilson and Payne did not identi
fy any of the .deviated wells or
leases on which they were drilled.
ing fuel killed men all around him
and set casualties on fire.
“I think the Lord nut a shield
around me,” Abood said.
Abood, a petty officer, was in
charge of eight men. Three of
them died that day.
The Allied Air Force began
dropping deadly loads of explo
sives behind the German lines, and
the infantry came about noon.
Compared to the fury of the
day Easy Red was auiet that
pivht. The Navy medic spent a
sleenless night in a foxhole.
“The next day I was all shook
un,” he said. T learned that one
of my best fi-iends had been
killed.
Abood went to a hospital in
France and in February of 1945
received a medical discharge.
Later he was awarded France’s
Croix de Guerre.
June 6 is etched in Ahood’s
memory.
“That day of every year T say
a prayer for those who didn’t come
back,” he said. “I think everybody
should.”
