japanese submarine slammed two torpedoes into our side, chief. we was coming back from the island of tinian to leyte, just delivered the bomb. the hiroshima bomb. eleven hundred men went into the water. vessel went down in twelve minutes. didn't see the first shark for about a half an hour. tiger. thirteen footer. you know how you know that when you're in the water, chief? you tell by looking from the dorsal to the tail. well, what we didn't know, cause our bomb mission had been so secret, no distress signal had been sent. they didn't even list us overdue for a week. very first light, chief. the sharks come cruising. so we formed ourselves into tight groups. you know it's kinda like ol squares in battle like you see on the calendar named the battle of waterloo. and the idea was, the shark comes to the nearest man and then he'd start pounding and hollering and screaming and sometimes the shark would go away. sometimes he wouldn't go away. sometimes that shark, he looks right into you. right into your eyes. you know the thing about a shark, he's got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll's eye. when he comes at ya, doesn't seem to be living. until he bites ya and those black eyes roll over white. and then, ah then you hear that terrible high pitch screaming and the ocean turns red and spite of all the pounding and the hollering they all come in and rip you to pieces. y'know by the end of that first dawn, lost a hundred men. i don't know how many sharks, maybe a thousand. i don't know how many men, they averaged six an hour. on thursday morning chief, i bumped into a friend of mine, herbie robinson from cleveland. baseball player, boatswain's mate. i thought he was asleep, reached over to wake him up. bobbed up and down in the water, just like a kinda top. up ended. well... he'd been bitten in half below the waist. noon the fifth day, mr. hooper, a lockheed ventura saw us, he swung in low and he saw us. he'd a young pilot, a lot younger than mr. hooper, anyway he saw us and come in low. and three hours later a big fat pby comes down and start to pick us up. you know that was the time i was most frightened? waiting for my turn. i'll never put on a lifejacket again. so, eleven hundred men went in the water, three hundred and sixteen men come out, the sharks took the rest, june the 29, 1945. anyway, we delivered the bomb.
We've no use talking like this. You won't know what I mean. Only, it's been a long while since we enlisted out of this classroom. So long, I thought maybe the whole world had learned by this time. Only now they're sending babies, and they won't last a week! I shouldn't have come on leave. Up at the front you're alive or you're dead and that's all. You can't fool anybody about that very long. And up there we know we're lost and done for whether we're dead or alive. Three years we've had of it, four years! And every day a year, and every night a century! And our bodies are earth, and our thoughts are clay, and we sleep and eat with death! And we're done for because you can't live that way and keep anything inside you! I shouldn't have come on leave. I'll go back tomorrow. I've got four days more, but I can't stand it here! I'll go back tomorrow! I'm sorry.
