My base at Java was overun, Manilla had already fallen so I went to Midway, thinking I could dock and end the mission. WRONG. So, I thought I should have went to Brisbane where I would be restationed. WRONG> I go back to Pearl and am dismissed, after receiving a Victory Medal. It said I had a happy life as an engineer or something like that, was married and had children and etc. Now that was short, just when I was getting started. All because I didn't complete the photo mission. Damn
