reporters are vaccinated for smallpox,
inoculated for typhoid, yellow fever,
tetanus and cholera, given a set ol pjss-
ports to the far corners of thr world,
and whisked off to the fighting fronts
by thr fastest means available.
Often, AP reporters orgin their assign-
ments under fire, arriving at the front
with invasion forces, “Soldiers of the
Press”—without guns!—they take the
same chances as fighting men. Since the
war started some have been killed, many
mounded, a few taken prisoners.
AP correspon’rnts get their stories in-
terviewing gun crews in action, diving
into jungle foxholes for the names of
hometown heroes, accompanying the
big bombers, and riding the decks of
lurching warships — anvw here there’s
dutv—rrr' danger! «
Correspondents write their dispatches
on the spot,'in tents or dugouts at ad-
vanced field headquarters, aboard w ar-
ships. I hey use w irclcss. telephone,
airplanes, ships, jeeps, couriers to get
their stories hack to headquarters w heir
they are censored and dispatched.
AP men are also attached to Allied
I ieadquarters on the various fronts.
From headquarters the work of AP
staffs is directed and communiques are
dispatched after military leaders explain
the day’s strategy. Correspondents are
told weeks in advance of major moves.
Twenty-four hours a day, seven days a
week, Sundays and holidays, a corps ol
specially recruited experts on AP’s for-
eign desk in New York receives and edits
w ar new s. A bulletin is on its w ay to this
newspaper in less than a minute after it
comes in—a few seconds, if it’s a flash.
