In vicious hand-to-hand fighting, in which more than two-thirds of the defenders became casualties, one Marine killed five attackers with his knife; another bludgeoned a Communist infantryman to death with a grenade.

In later years he hugely enjoyed Ian Fleming's James Bond stories, and was delighted when his laboratory-at his prompting-found that one of Bond's fictional weapons, a spring-loaded knife embedded in the heel of a shoe, actually worked...
