#1 On November 7, 1942, the press was invited to the White House. They were locked in, and fifteen minutes later, the President’s secretary came in with news that the troops had landed.

#2 The Battle of the Coral Sea was a mess, but it was the best I had ever seen. I was afraid I would get fat from all the exercise I was taking. I gave everyone a simplified directive of war: use steamroller strategy, and do not steamroller tactics.

#3 I went on deck at 2 am, and saw the Fedhala and Casablanca lights burning. The sea was calm, and there was no swell. God was with us. We had a great day so far and had been in a naval battle since 8 am.

#4 I decided to attack Casablanca with the 3rd Division and one tank battalion. It took some nerve, as both Truscott and Harmon seemed in a bad way, but I felt we should maintain the initiative.
