The 40th Division, consisting of men from the 48 states as well as former California, New York and Utah National Guard units, was still driving the Japanese deeper into the Cabusilan Mountains southwest of Bamban, when advance elements of General Douglas MacArthur's lightning Luzon liberators sped into Manila. But the right flank of the XIV Corps was secure and the vital routes down the central valley were beyond the reach of Japanese through the division’s hammering. The division’s infantry-artillery team had silenced Japanese long toms which could blast the highway to Manila and impede the liberation drive. The Japanese still had powerful artillery pieces, but the 40th Division’s pounding had driven them back into the mountains beyond even nuance firing range. And those Japanese who did not withdraw, but stayed in their mountain caves and concrete pillboxes, were eliminated. Besides clearing the strategic Santa Ana, Orange and San Bernardino. Since its induction ranks of the 40th Division have been filled with selectees from every section of California. Californians today are performing all jobs from assistant chiefs to riflemen who are fighting along the road to Manila. After manning beach defenses in Southern California for five months following Pearl Harbor, the 40th Division underwent advanced training at Fort Lewis, Washington. Overesas since August, 1942, the Division was on duty in the Hawaiian Islands and the South Pacific before assignment to New Britain. 4-H Club Seniors Plant 200 Trees At Irvine Park Choosing the extension of the forest tree planting in Osterman grove at Irvine Park as their community project, the 4-H agricultural club seniors recently planted 200 trees in that location.

The Japanese still had powerful artillery pieces, but the 40th Division's pounding had driven them back into the mountains beyond even nuance firing range. And those Japanese who did not withdraw, but stayed in their mountain caves and concrete pillboxes, were eliminated. Besides clearing the strategic gateway to Manila, the division swept clean the hills dominating Clark Field. Since the Japanese selected to fight in the hills instead of the open terrain in Central Luzon, it was the XIV Corps' right flank, carried by the 40th Division, that met the stiffest resistance and bore the brunt of the Manilaward battle. This battle developed in the strategic Bamban-Magalang area. The Japanese were making the most of the terrian when they took stand in this area dominating Highway 3 to Manila. In the Bamban-Magalang sector, the wide Central Luzon plain is spit by towering Mt. Arayat. To the east of this natural obstacle lies another barrier, the Candaba Swamps. To the west of this passage, barely more than 10 miles wide at the throat, stands the Cabusilan Mountains of the formidable Zambales range, ideal for a stubborn defensive stand. It was this vital approach to Manila which the 40th captured and secured in 25 days after launching its lightning attack from Lingayen Jan. 9. During this time, the division dashed from Lingayen to Fort Stotsenburg, a distance of about 75 airline miles. It continued on further with advance elements to San Fernando, Gua Gua and Dina-lupinian, a distance of 22 miles to make a juncture with the XI Corps, thus severing Bataan peninsula from the mainland. Scores of important towns, including Lingayen, Alaminos, Sual, a port town, and Tarlac, a railroad junction, and a dozen airports or airstrips from Lingayen Gulf to Clark Fields, were captured by the 40th Division. Countless other barriers and small communities were liberated with wild acclaim of the Filipinos and freed from the grip of the Japanese. Down through the Central Luzon valley, the 40th drove Japanese rear guard forces backward so fast they abandoned valuable equipment including 120 millimeters. Plant 200 Trees At Irvine Park Choosing the extension of the forest tree planting in Osterman grove at Irvine Park as their community project, the 4-H agricultural club seniors recently planted 200 trees in that location. Species planted included Inense cedar, Coulter pine, and Ellepo pines. Those present included William M. Corcy, assistant farm advisor and leader of the Seniors, Miss Frances Liles, home demonstration agent. H. W. Longfellow, assistant farm advisor and 4-H leader, Elmer Osterman, assistant state forest ranger, Selmer Rosedale, 4-H club leader, Dorothy Rosedale, Senior vice-president, Verna Rice, secretary, Paul Lieb, Senior all-star, Mary Jane Beavers, Kenneth Richardson, Norma Ruoff, Robert Hight, Jim Hurrman, William Rosedale, Maisie Sherwin, Barabara Elliott, and Lorraine Cole.

Hope has made 'em laugh In Panama, Alaska; British Isles; North Africa; Sicily; and most recently through the captured islands of the South Pacific. A port town, and Tarlac, a railroad junction, and a dozen airports or airstrips from Lingayen Gulf to Clark Fields, were captured by the 40th Division. Countless other barriers and small communities were liberated with wild acclaim of the Filipinos and freed from the grip of the Japanese. Down through the Central Luzon valley, the 40th drove Japanese rear guard forces backward so fast they abandoned valuable equipment including 120 millimeter dual purpose rifles which 40th Artillerymen turned against their former owners. Tanks were knocked out, machine guns eliminated and for the 25-day period the division killed 1,679 Japanese and captured 39 Japanese soldiers, 175 Formosans and 73 Chinese forced laborers. The 40th Division, born during the first world war and nurtured in the last days of fighting in France, was inducted into federal service March 3, 1941, when National Guard units from California and Utah reported for training at Camp San Luis Obispo, California. California units in the Division include the following: an infantry regiment and a medical battalion from Los Angeles and vicinity, an infantry regiment from Central and Southern California, two field artillery battalions from East San Francisco Bay area, a signal company from San Francisco and a quartermaster company from Berkeley. The infantry regiment from Central and Southern California represents the cities and surrounding communities of Sacramento, Fresno, Riverside, Visalia, Turlock, Hanford, Pasadena, Monrovia, Pomona, Ontario, Anaheim, I SAW the Red Cross bring news from home to a worried son! A soldier stationed in the Pacific couldn't understand why a letter to his mother was returned to him marked "unknown." Was his mother sick? Alive? What had happened? The Red Cross investigated; found out the trouble—a very simple mistake—and relieved the soldier's fears! I SAW the Red Cross ship taking food to our men in prison camp! Thousands of our men in enemy hands would suffer were it not for the food, clothing and medicines sent by and through the Red Cross. KNOTT'S BUENE War Prisoner Next Kin Meeting In A. Sunday Anaheim has its share of men are prisoners of war in Gerland and their status is a cause much concern on the part of of kin, an anxiety that somecan be lessened considerthrough attending Next-ofkin exchange information received from men who are war prisoners. In this way many new facts are brought to light. At these meetings returnees who have been exchanged or have escaped tell of their experiences while war prisoners and next-of-kin exchange information received from men who are war prisoners. While a next of kin organization has not functioned in this area study and plans are underway at the present time by the local Y. M. C. A. groups for such an organization. Recently Dr. Hugh Moran, member of the Y. M. C. A. war prisoner aid committee has been touring through the southland explaining the purposes of this type of organization and urging that one be set up in Orange county. Anaheim Gazette, since 1870.

I saw! ports on the Red Cross in action I SAW Red Cross blood plasma bring a man back to life! I watched a miracle. A miracle that could not have happened without you...and your Red Cross. In 1944 the Red Cross was asked to provide 5,000,000 pints of blood for the armed forces in addition to 5,600,000 pints previously obtained. This project was carried on through centers located in 35 big cities. I SAW the Red Cross playing mother to homesick, war-wary fighters! There are more than 700 Red Cross Clubs overseas. They're headquarters for snacks, tours, dances, games, books, home newspapers! I SAW the Red Cross handing out kits to the wounded in hospitals. When a man has lost everything—these comfort kits are worth their weight in gold. They contain toilet articles, cigarettes, candy. I SAW the Red Cross great filers just hack from a mission! I saw a Fort come in—haggard men crawl out of her. A Red Cross clubmobile pulled up. And the fliers relaxed over doughnuts, coffee, American girls' smiles. GIVE NOW...
