...been a rare event in history to have an army of occupation, surrendering its hold upon the conquered territory, invited to stay longer, not only by its allies, but by the subject people themselves.

During the two days, out of a total of 54 contests which the team took part in, the Navy dropped but nine bouts, and it was this ability to win decisively from...
