1. I am not inclined to treat this report lightly, or to suggest that it be so treated elsewhere. Knowing how our marines, sailors, equipment and LCVP’s were plucked up and transported to Kalahari, together with the Japanese, I am still in complete ignorance of the meaning of the “Shadow Men.” If Operations has any additional information it is felt that this base should be made aware of it.
