Glenn Borders, who moved to Silver Lake two years ago with his wife, Mildred, served aboard the cruiser during World War II. "All I wanted was to get out of there," he said of his three-year-and-14-day enlistment in the U.S.Navy.When he wasn't avoiding German submarines, he was ducking suicidal Japanese pilots. The Terror set course for Casablanca, Morocco's chief port city, Nov.2, 1942, arriving 12 days later.The ocean was full of German submarines.The convoy zigzagged across the Atlantic to evade the underwater threat. "That kept us young fellows scared to death all the time," Borders, a Rushville native, said of the crossing. The Allies had recently liberated Casablanca.The Terror was there long enough to set mines and refuel.
