BRINGS BACK JAP
WITH THE AMERICAN INFANTRY DIVISION SOMEWHERE IN THE SOUTHWEST PACIFIC
 CORPORAL WILLIE TAYLOR, OF ASHBURN,GA, AND SGT. JOHN C. MULLIGAN, OF TROY
,N.Y.,BROUGHT INA JAP PRISONER AT THIS JUNGLE BASE IN A WAY THAT SHOULD MAKE TOJO
ADD A NEW PAGE TO THE JAPANESE SOLDIER'S HANDBOOK.
 TAYLOR AND MULLIGAN SET OUT ONE MORNING IN THEIR JEEP ON A ROUTINE PATROL ALONG THE
BEACH WHEN THEY SPOTTED A JAP. WHENTHEY AIMED THEIR GUNS AT HIM, THE JAP DROPPED HIS
RIFLE AND STOOD MOTIONLESS. TAYLOR MOTIONED FOR HIM TO DROP HIS CLOTHES AND GET IN.
 THE JAP DID.
'' IT WAS AS SIMPLE AS THAT''. MULLIGAN SAID.
 THE CORPORAL AND HIS SARGEANT DROVE THE JEEP BACK TO HEADQUARTERS, AN M-1 TRAINED
ON HIS BACK.
 THE JAP WOULD HAVE BEEN AMAZED TO LEARN THAT THE RIFLE COVERED HIM WASN'T LOADED, A
FACT THAT TAYLOR AND MULLIGN DISCOVERED LATER.
 ''WHAT HE DIDN'T KNOW , AIN'T HURT US,''SAID SARGEANT MULLIGAN RUEFULLY,THAT GOES
FOR THE NIS AND US.
