Garbush was on Okinawa awaiting transportation when the storm hit and in the letter he re lates how he survived the blow despite the fact his clothes were torn to shreds. Dated Yontan, Okinawa. Oct. 14, the letter reads in part: -I suppose that by now you have heard about the typhoon that hit here on the ninth. I figured that you might worry so I thought I had better write and let you know that I am OK except for a slight head cold.

"The storm was really rough. Over on the landing field about two miles from here, the wind tally broke at 130 miles per hour, and then the storm was just going in good shape. Loses Possessions "I had some things packed in an airtight metal ammunition box and this is all I saved. Even the clothes I had on were all torn to shreds. I found a little foxhole with a top on it and climbed in with my little box.

As it was so small I had to sit in a crouched position all night. To make matters worse it rained so much that by morning I was in water up to my waist. There was so much Junk flying through the air that it wasn't safe to try to go any other place. There were quite a few fellows that were hurt quite badly, but the hospitals were all blown away so there was no helping them until after the storm when nlanes started to bring in supplies. heard that about half a dozen fellows were in an ambulance during the storm and when it was over they were about eight miles from where they belonged.

They were in the lee of a cliff about 50 to 60 feet high, so evidently they just settled down behind it. They were pretty badly beaten up but the ambulance was only dented and scratched. They drove it back. Forage for Food "Today I got some new clothes and a couple of blankets and a cot. So tonight I will be able to lie down and sleep instead of leaning against an old tree stump like I have since the storm.

It is pretty damp and cold for that. "The whole country is torn up. Another fellow and I were wandering around looking for something to eat and found a case of pork and beans. Well, we ate beans three times a day for several days. Thank heavens we have some rations now.
