5-Chapter+9

Important event:
 * Two weeks later, the men saw what would have awaited them had they gone down at sea. A B-25 flying off Oahu radioed that it was low on fuel, then went silent. Super Man was scrambled to hunt for it. After an hour and a half of searching, Louie spotted a curl of gray smoke. Two Catalina flying boats were heading toward it. Super Man followed. When they arrived at the crash site, the men were astonished by what they saw. Two life rafts, holding the entire five-man B-25 crew, floated amid plane debris. Around them, the ocean was churning with hundreds of sharks, some of which looked twenty feet long. Knifing agitated circles in the water, the creatures seemed on the verge of overturning the rafts. pg. 93
 * Pillsbury was still in his seat, facing sideways, gripping the gunand sweeping his eyes around the sky. He looked absolutely livid.His leg dangled below him, his pant leg hanging in shreds and his boot blasted. Next to him was a jagged hole, the shape of Texas and almost as blarge as a beach ball, clawed out of the side of the plane. the turret was shot with holes,and thefloor was jingling with flakes of metal and turret motor.
