He saw soldiers sweating out a jungle training course in a stinking swamp, He spent much time going through army and navy hospitals, chatting with wounded, some who were literally fighting for their lives but still wan smiles. : One of the most satisfying phases of the frip to the President was to see the restoration and expansion of the Pearl Harbor navy yard and Hickam field, the army air station, which were the primary targets of the Japanese in their 1941
