Field notes
The narrative moves between family memories, Ward's work at Heyward Allen and Ward's Sod Company, and his Navy service. The page attributes the portrait to grandson Kris Matthew Ward and gives a short account of the Wonsan Harbor sweep, naming USS Pirate and USS Pledge; it also describes the mine total as “3,000+,” qualified as “by most accounts.”
