THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

in Philippine Jungle Told in Diary of Marine Guerrilla Cg

Chamberlain and Armstrong suggested Vera should hold higher rank. The Filipino leader became a lieutenant colonel on the spot and celebrated his elevation by appointing Chamberlain a first lieutenant and Armstrong a second lieutenant. Chamberlain parted company with Armstrong over guerrilla combat methods and Chamberlain went on alone, joining the forces of a Col. Surrez, who led a band of native Moros. Chamberlain ‘described the Moros as “tough, rugged fighters

who are absolutely fearless and hate the Japs with intense fury.” He said the Moros reminded him of an advertisement for a Scottie dog he wanted as a boy: “The body of a pigmy but the heart of a lion.” En route to Mindanao to join guerrilla bands under former U. S. Army Col. Wendell Chamberlain was stricken with malaria, Natives took him ashore on Basilan island and summoned a Filipino nurse, Evangelista, from a nearby American mission, Chamberlain said Evangelista had “jet black

eyes and long lashes, gleamind white even teeth and a winning smile.” He soon was calling her “Ba,” and romance blossomed in the jungle. Chamberlain - said that on his fifth day out of bed, he “took Ba in my arms and kissed her tenderly. Her lips were soft and warm. She smiled as she buried her head comfortably in my shoulder. It felt as if it belonged there. I'd never been in love. I wonder 4 I'm In love now?” When he took Nave of “Ba, n Chamberlain sald their friendship

was developing toicT something {|

“stronger.” She wept, he said, when he departed for Mindanao. Chamberlain served under Col. Fertig, who commissioned him a first lieutenant in the U. 8. army, and finally was sent home to recover from malaria. Four months after he returned to the states, Chamberlain was told he could retain his army commission or return to the marines as a corporal. He ‘chose the latter, went to Iwo Jima, was promoted to sergeant and killed in*combat.
