Speaker 1: from September one, nineteen fifty, here's the episode War of Words.
Speaker 2: Are you willing to undertake a dangerous mission behind the
Speaker 2: enemy lines knowing you may never return alive?
Speaker 3: What you have just heard is the question asked during
Speaker 3: the war to agents of the OSS. Ordinary citizens who
Speaker 3: to this question answered yes. This is Cloak and Dagger,
Speaker 3: black warfare, espionage, international intrigue. These are the weapons of
Speaker 3: the OSS. Today's story, a War of Words, concerns an
Speaker 3: American agent who personally delivered a message to the kernel
Speaker 3: of a Japanese camp and is suggested by actual incidents
Speaker 3: recorded in the Washington files of the Office of Strategic Services,
Speaker 3: a story.
Speaker 4: That can now be told. Okay, Harry, I spotted it.
Speaker 4: There's our target. Check, ready to let them go, Ready,
Speaker 4: bombs away theer's he goes.
Speaker 5: I dropped every.
Speaker 4: One of those bombshells we had in the plane, and
Speaker 4: they hit the target right on the nose. And the
Speaker 4: explosion that followed sounded like this just as much noise
Speaker 4: as paper makes when it floods to the ground. Those
Speaker 4: were our bombshells. Propaganda leaflets, leaflets designed by OSS to
Speaker 4: lower the morale of the Japanese soldiers in that camp
Speaker 4: in Burma. Those were our silent weapons.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna turn back now, Okay, Pete, Harry, what do
Speaker 3: you think of that phoned up picture of the bombing
Speaker 3: Tokyo we just dropped?
Speaker 5: Looked authentic to me.
Speaker 4: And I liked that little pamphlet too, you know, the
Speaker 4: one that began Suns of the Rising Sun. It is
Speaker 4: better to surrender than fight without bullets or die of
Speaker 4: starvation in the jungle.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that one was real, cured.
Speaker 2: It's sure.
Speaker 3: How to give those lousy jets something to think about, right, Sorry, Harry.
Speaker 5: I shouldn't have said that.
Speaker 4: That's okay, Pete, forget it. Let's beat our own record,
Speaker 4: get him back this time. Huh yeah, here we go.
Speaker 4: Sometimes the guys forgot that Harry was short for Haryoshi Ryoshinabura.
Speaker 4: And though I like to think of myself as an
Speaker 4: American Japanese, even people thought of me as a Japanese American.
Speaker 4: I had to learn not to be too sensitive.
Speaker 5: Mean boys, not in Thank you, colonel, it's down.
Speaker 2: Cigarette. Thank you. You two have done a good job
Speaker 2: in the past few months peppering Burma without propaganda material. No,
Speaker 2: here's a night, thank you, and we already have begun
Speaker 2: to see the results. Or how's that, colonel, Well, you
Speaker 2: know how live Japanese prisoners used to be at a
Speaker 2: premium Rather than be captured, they'd commit hallakiri, almost in defiance.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I hear a lot of them are surrendering lately.
Speaker 5: That's right.
Speaker 2: Their morale isn't what it was good and you too
Speaker 2: can take part of the credit for that. But tomorrow, tomorrow,
Speaker 2: I want you to go one step further. Well, listening,
Speaker 2: sir h take a look at his documents.
Speaker 4: What is it Chinese or Japanese. Well Greek to me,
Speaker 4: I can tell you what it is, Pete. It's obviously
Speaker 4: a forged order to the commander of the Japanese camp
Speaker 4: to withdraw his troops three miles east.
Speaker 2: Well, I hope it's not an obvious forgery to him
Speaker 2: attended Nabura, because if he falls for it and moves
Speaker 2: his camp, our armies will have a clean road right
Speaker 2: into Bambo. And once we get there, Burman's practically in
Speaker 2: our hands.
Speaker 5: I see. Oh begging your pardon, colonel.
Speaker 4: What are we supposed to do to walk into that
Speaker 4: Jat camp and deliver these orders?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 2: No, No, your job is much simpler. All you have
Speaker 2: to do is fly over the OSS Detachment one hundred
Speaker 2: and one at Asamon, drop this document a Cutching natives,
Speaker 2: and our agents there will do the rest. We've contacted
Speaker 2: them by radio. They expected check, Colonel, be a snap,
Speaker 2: nothing to it.
Speaker 5: This o'll be a snap.
Speaker 6: Ha, nothing to it?
Speaker 5: Ha heard. I know we'd run into a champ zero.
Speaker 7: Right back at your buddy.
Speaker 4: Now, he died too fast for your Harry. I'm gonna
Speaker 4: grab more sky. Maybe you can lose him up there.
Speaker 1: It's on a tail.
Speaker 5: Maybe not for long, hang on, boy.
Speaker 4: Most of the way up, the air was thin enough
Speaker 4: so that I could see the nose of that zero
Speaker 4: following us, and then it's seven thousand feet. The air
Speaker 4: became thick and we lost him, but the plane had
Speaker 4: taken quite a beating.
Speaker 5: How bad is a lot you're paid?
Speaker 3: Oh, we're having more than fifty miles to go, and
Speaker 3: we can sit down and cutch in territory, make.
Speaker 5: Repairs before heading back to India.
Speaker 4: Okay, instead of dropping that document, well delivered purse, won't
Speaker 4: we get there?
Speaker 1: Huh?
Speaker 5: If we get there? What what's that wing? It's coming
Speaker 5: off where he hit us. Percy goes, what are we
Speaker 5: doing now? I'm gonna kick a stick.
Speaker 4: Forward as hard as I can put her in a loop.
Speaker 5: Well, that's crazy. Now out of tosses backwards out of
Speaker 5: the cockpit. Don't pull your rip cord before your fall
Speaker 5: free of the plane. We'll light to the river.
Speaker 8: I'll give you a freake dry.
Speaker 5: Here we go.
Speaker 4: We fell free of the plane. I jerked the rip
Speaker 4: cord in my shoote open. On the way down, I
Speaker 4: inflated my may west and the little lifeboats swelled up
Speaker 4: below me. I could see Pete drifting slowly in the
Speaker 4: Brahma put the river and then I hit the water.
Speaker 5: Boy, this is a nice mester to be and.
Speaker 3: Not even sure exactly where then one oh one detachment's located.
Speaker 5: It's somewhere to the south, isn't it. Yeah, that's the
Speaker 5: help who who jungle steaks?
Speaker 4: I'm gonna think of a lot of places I'd rather be,
Speaker 4: for instance, for instance, anywhere this place is probably crawling
Speaker 4: with enemy patrols.
Speaker 3: Oh that's a pleasant but careful, careful all trip over
Speaker 3: those roots.
Speaker 5: The jungle was heavy and oppressive. The tall trees spread.
Speaker 4: A canopy over our heads and shut out what little
Speaker 4: sun there was. After a few miles, our shirts were
Speaker 4: ripped the shreds on the brambles, and blood ran into.
Speaker 5: Our eyes from the leeches on our foreheads. And then
Speaker 5: feet stopped shorting, Harry, But the river? What river? What
Speaker 5: is it? From a putre where we lay in it?
Speaker 5: You see it?
Speaker 4: Say to the right, I don't get it. We passed
Speaker 4: it a few miles back, Yeah, we sure did. You
Speaker 4: see that clumper roots? They look familiar and that's where
Speaker 4: you almost tripped, right there by the swamp. But yeah,
Speaker 4: we made a nice big circle, right back where we started.
Speaker 4: How the devil did we do that anything could happened
Speaker 4: in this lousy.
Speaker 5: Harry japatroll. Just isn't our day coming this way? Quick?
Speaker 7: The swamp never see this week. Let's get on the
Speaker 7: water to it pass, all right, Let's say I get down.
Speaker 7: Just keep your nose up to breathe, but we have
Speaker 7: to get.
Speaker 5: Down under it. Don't breathe all right?
Speaker 8: That I think.
Speaker 5: Like to reached out and then tied their shoelaces. Let's
Speaker 5: get out of here.
Speaker 4: That night we lay side by side, deep in the jungle,
Speaker 4: on top, of course, undergrowth, underneath the trees from which
Speaker 4: Leanna's hung down like braided ropes. We shooted oppositions every
Speaker 4: few minutes. It's a regiment of ants and bugs crawled
Speaker 4: into our clothing and kept us awake. And then towards
Speaker 4: morning we fell asleep exhausted. When we awoke, the sun
Speaker 4: had found a hole in the branches.
Speaker 5: And crawled through. Boy, that sun's hot, is it? What
Speaker 5: do you mean? Is it? I'm cold, Pete, I got
Speaker 5: the shakes fever. I don't know. I just feel sick,
Speaker 5: sick of my stomach. We can't sit here, you think
Speaker 5: and travel.
Speaker 4: Oh sure, come on boy, that sounds blazing, isn't it. Well,
Speaker 4: but you said you had the shakes. Oh nothing, nothing,
Speaker 4: Come on, Harry, come on now, up on your feet. Boy,
Speaker 4: you'll be all right.
Speaker 5: Come on, boy, that's it.
Speaker 4: But we started walking again. Our wrists had open sores
Speaker 4: on from jungle rode. My head was hot, my hands
Speaker 4: were cold, and I felt sick, awful sick. Harry, how
Speaker 4: do you feel? I'll be okay with that swamp we
Speaker 4: hit in. That's those lousy bugs that got on your skin,
Speaker 4: and I'll be all right. Ah, Harry, Harry, Yeah, Harry, hiy, h.
Speaker 5: Okay, fella. I just take it easy. Yeah, that's it.
Speaker 5: This cold cloth on your forehead, it'll make you feel better,
Speaker 5: you'll see. Boy. Pete, yeah that's Pete. Where I couldn't
Speaker 5: you say anything more original than that? For crying out loud,
Speaker 5: my black god, than I don't talk so much, blabbed
Speaker 5: enough when you were off your head? Uh, who's a
Speaker 5: focusing girl?
Speaker 4: I know it, U c l A. I figured how
Speaker 4: long it goes have been Sinsey, you know, two days
Speaker 4: and we got enough rash and it we'll be okay.
Speaker 5: I don't lie to me. I said, we'll be okay. Now,
Speaker 5: don't try to set up Harry. Well, how far do
Speaker 5: you think we are the cutcheons.
Speaker 3: Well, I think I've got the direction pretty well mapped
Speaker 3: out now by a day's travel.
Speaker 5: Do south?
Speaker 4: Why not?
Speaker 5: If you sit here with me for a week, now,
Speaker 5: don't cut some pick it out of here. I'll tell
Speaker 5: you what. If you make it there by yourself, you
Speaker 5: can come back with some of the natives and get me.
Speaker 5: Not on your life.
Speaker 4: I'm not leaving it, but quiet, someone's out sun you
Speaker 4: do its God and call out when out of the cares.
Speaker 4: My head was pounding hotter than before. Maybe maybe it
Speaker 4: was the fever. Maybe it was because I had to
Speaker 4: lie to helpless while people went out a law do
Speaker 4: whatever was outside?
Speaker 5: Do not shoot? Friend and friend?
Speaker 9: Who are you?
Speaker 5: Maybe soothing? Scout and scout? Show it is morning from

Speaker 4: I don't know what he mixed it up in those
Speaker 4: which doctor concoctions. Besides the juice of mahogany LEAs and
Speaker 4: the roots of the leanna vines or whatever it was.
Speaker 5: I was on my feet.
Speaker 4: Two days later we started out for Detachment one oh one,
Speaker 4: only this time we had a guide. And then the
Speaker 4: next night, out of nowhere we came upon it.
Speaker 5: Well what did you know here?
Speaker 4: It was the USS secret hide out, carved right into
Speaker 4: the jungle of Furmas.
Speaker 5: So this is Detachment one oh one.
Speaker 4: They will eat straw, attached pashas, a mess hall, a well,
Speaker 4: aquip hospital, mortars, bazookaus, crates, av yournhering, harry look.
Speaker 5: A woman, a woman, a Red Cross nurse.
Speaker 4: Gi paratroopers and bright colored shirts and I'm maced jump
Speaker 4: boots were strolling about, mingling with a Native troop.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 5: Oh, is it just like a city in the wilderness,
Speaker 5: isn't it. It's like nothing I've ever seen before, and
Speaker 5: probably late nothing you'll never see again. Uh where'd you
Speaker 5: come from?
Speaker 9: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Sure, and they've been standing behind you all the tame.
Speaker 5: Would you like to let me show you around? Babe?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 5: Well not now. Thanks.
Speaker 4: The guide who brought us here disappeared. We've got to
Speaker 4: find the head man around here. We have something for him.
Speaker 9: Ah.
Speaker 8: But you'll live longer if you live slow and don't
Speaker 8: drive yourselves remem Mother is the soul told me that
Speaker 8: in Dublin many years ago. He mayrish, you know no, no,
Speaker 8: you don't say oh yes, yes. You take a good
Speaker 8: look at her little camp. As they said, you'll probably
Speaker 8: never see anything like it again if you live to
Speaker 8: be one hundred and four. It's as if the liper
Speaker 8: can't set it down right in the middle of the wilderness.
Speaker 8: We'll look around later, if you don't mind, know who's
Speaker 8: insane to take out?
Speaker 5: These lads.
Speaker 8: The paratroopers who were first down in the they all
Speaker 8: had the same look about them when they first came,
Speaker 8: as if they stumbled into a better fire leaf.
Speaker 5: Look, would you mind very much? Lad?
Speaker 8: There was a farmer in Wisconsin and they went talking
Speaker 8: to the nurses from Boston originally that is and the
Speaker 8: tar Lad is a Texas but we won.
Speaker 5: It took lot to make him say that this looked
Speaker 5: better to him than Texas. Well, you are forced down

Speaker 5: What did you do before the war? I will? I'll
Speaker 5: tell you, Leeds.
Speaker 8: I operated a hut furring from Hoboken to Canarsie. You
Speaker 8: want furry right, driving little business. It was too, and
Speaker 8: after the war, I'll probably come back to it. This

Speaker 5: All Look, where can we find somebody in authority?
Speaker 8: That evening Mass with everyone else Mass? Of course, you
Speaker 8: see that big store hut at the far end, you'll

Speaker 4: us I ran a hot furring go boken to Kanasi
Speaker 4: officiating at the.
Speaker 2: Quoted.
Speaker 4: Every once in a while he'd look up at us
Speaker 4: and I could see the suggestion of a smile around
Speaker 4: his lips.
Speaker 5: That was a soldier Staddy next to us.
Speaker 4: Who is that?
Speaker 5: Well, that's father, o'dool. You practically organized the one on one.

Speaker 3: On, we'll take a good look boy, my red, I
Speaker 3: would father or two. Yes, here the four Japanese orders
Speaker 3: the colonel gave us in India. Of course, the original
Speaker 3: plan about dropping them over to you and turning back
Speaker 3: didn't work out. But just as long as we got
Speaker 3: them here, just as long as we have them, we
Speaker 3: know what to do with them.
Speaker 5: Now.
Speaker 8: There's a Japanese mail courier coming through tomorrow night from
Speaker 8: the groom to the jack camp at Mucklem. Now I'll
Speaker 8: have sue Linga one of the other scouts intercept him
Speaker 8: and deposit this document.
Speaker 5: In his mail. Coach, oh, I get it. Father.
Speaker 4: When he comes to he won't know what hit him,
Speaker 4: but he'll keep going with the forged papers.
Speaker 5: Hey, so you get a quick brain lead and there
Speaker 5: by the bay.
Speaker 8: Yes, father, you know, since you're Japanese as well as American,
Speaker 8: I suggest you stay close to me for the next
Speaker 8: day or so until you leave. You see, then the
Speaker 8: natives will get over their suspicions of it.
Speaker 5: I seem down with fever. Ah, I was nurse all
Speaker 5: right for bardging? And do you hurt this way? Father?
Speaker 5: A tool? But sue Ling told me one of these
Speaker 5: men had jungle sickness. Wait, it's great, alright, Nurse Amy Leeds.

Speaker 8: I sent Sue out last night to intercept the Japanese
Speaker 8: courier and deposit this document.
Speaker 5: And his mail. Poach. What went wrong?
Speaker 8: Well, it seems that Suling doesn't know his own strengths
Speaker 8: to quote a phrase, and he hit him too hard.
Speaker 8: I'm very much afraid the courier will not be able
Speaker 8: to deliver the mail after all to the camp at Mucklem.
Speaker 4: Well, look farther OUTO. That document is important. It's got

Speaker 5: it may work.
Speaker 4: I hope it may work. Slipping an extra prayer for
Speaker 4: me father. While I was at it, I went after
Speaker 4: the letters and cards that were going to the Japanese
Speaker 4: soldiers and phoning them up. I raised everything but the
Speaker 4: signatures and wrote about how bad conditions were back in
Speaker 4: Tokyo and the black market was flourishing, how they were
Speaker 4: being bombed every night. At dawn, I had changed into
Speaker 4: the captured courier's uniform. I had the mail sack over
Speaker 4: my shoulder and soooling at my side to take me

Speaker 4: When I left the camp at mcclahm and started back
Speaker 4: for Cutching headquarters. I must have been within two miles
Speaker 4: of Detachment one O one when I realized I was
Speaker 4: being followed. I couldn't see anyone, to hear anyone, but
Speaker 4: I knew some one was there in the brush or
Speaker 4: the trees, hidden somewhere along the trail. I started to
Speaker 4: run fast her. My lungs started to ache with each friend,
Speaker 4: and my strength was gone and a hangover the femur
Speaker 4: I'd just gotten over. If I had escaped from the
Speaker 4: Japanese camp and fallen in the head hunter hands, I
Speaker 4: know I didn't have a chance.
Speaker 5: What are you you? I doc Dabonese English?
Speaker 1: What are you?
Speaker 5: Head hunter? You luck the lucky? Now bless messie? Lieutenant

Speaker 5: get here? Had you mixing things up? Have been led?
Speaker 5: You mean? Of course? How did you get back here
Speaker 5: to the USS camp? To the what I will now?
Speaker 5: It's very simple.
Speaker 8: I have an apology to make for my friends, the
Speaker 8: Kutchins who brought you here. They'd been out scouting for
Speaker 8: the past week and they did not know you. Also,
Speaker 8: of course, the Japanese uniform you were aware and confused them,
Speaker 8: but it was a pity that they speak only their
Speaker 8: own language, so that you couldn't clear up the situation.
Speaker 8: They need to teach them how to speak English, English
Speaker 8: the way it should be spoken.
Speaker 3: Lieutenants Harro, Yoshinabora and Peter Bono were returned to India
Speaker 3: by plane on the rescue Camp Arrasan, and a few
Speaker 3: weeks later a special dispatch informed OSS headquarters at the
Speaker 3: strategic city of had been taken. Thus, once again the
Speaker 3: report of another agent closed with.
