General Account
11 June Boarded south bound Wien DC-3, flight
345, about 2430. Arrived Uniat about
0200, and was met by the Wien radio
and maintenance personnel. There are three
or four of them stationed at Uniat. They put
me up for the night in their bunk house, but
before retiring I took a walk about the
deserted camp and out along the wiesel
road at the west end of "Uniat Avenue." Also
examined the ARL hut for possible use as
headquarters. It did not appear as satisfactory
as the smaller U.S.C.S. hut, so I
chose the latter, with permission of "Dust",
who appears to be in charge of the Wien
outfit. He seems to think he owns Uniat.
Went to bed about 0330 and got up at
1015. Spent the rest of morning and early after-
noon getting my gear set up in the U.S.C.S.
hut and cleaning it out. Whoever used it
last left it in a terrible mess. But they were
kind enough to leave Eggerich's large
ticture of Unite Ekberg tacked to the wall.
About 1600 I went out to locate some
of the relaver trans sets. Found T-4 with
little trouble. The hundred foot intervals
are marked with tent stakes, the intermediate
ones with white soap tied to vegetation.
About half of this line is encircled with wire.
