BETTY - A PRIZE DENIED

  We continue along a path through 6-foot kunai grass until we came in sight of the plane.  We have had good directions this day.  I move gingerly up to the plane and determine it has been abandoned.  The Filipino guerrillas have been here already, for the guns have been stripped from the plane.  There is no sign of a crew ever being there. Our pilot comes forward to inspect his new prize and I move back out of the way.
