“This small island with its single house was once the property of a resident [of] Trinidad and was taken over and left intact by the Army. Eight Puerto Rican soldiers are now stationed here after replacing a crew of the 99 th. Their only contact with their battery is by telephone and motor launch which brings them food, water and mail several times a week. They like their isolation for they are their own bosses and are provided with larger rations than are the men at the main camp.”
