Major Leftwich was cit- ed for his personal cour- ageous action against the Viet Cong on Mar. 9, in Binh Dinh Province. The Major was serving as Task Force advisor to a Vietnam- ese Marine battalion sent to relieve Hoai-An District Town after an estimated two Viet Cong battalions had overrun three outposts and endangered the town. About one kilometer north

Brigade Marines Have 2 Thoughts; Current World Situation, Family

i EDITOR'S NOTE: GySgt. John Babyack Jr. is in Okinawa as the writ- er on an ISO team dispatched from li-Bay on a news gathering assign- ment. The following is the first of his eyewitness accounts of the Brigade's activities on its deployment.)

By GySgt. John Babyack Jr. FIRST MARINE BRIGADE,

CAMP HAGUE, OKINAWA, Apr. 13 (Delayed)-Since the days of John Paul Jones, de- pendents of American serv- iceman have been bidding sad farewells to their loved ones.

When the First Marine Brigade moved out, depend- ents were left with confu- sion and doubt in their minds. Keeping the many questions

that were being asked in mind, I ventured to Okinawa and in the three days that have passed since my arrival, this is what I have found.

As a result of my talks with Marines in all ranks - from the most senior officer to the junior enlisted man - what I

find is hard to put into words for women to understand.

Brigade Marines stand ready and well trained to meet any situation should the need arise. Their spirit is good and

their morale is high - even though a few disgruntled re- marks have been passed. Re- marks such as these have been and always will be part of a 'sthting-Marine's spirit.

Training on Okinawa is being carried on as usual by

the Brigade's ground forc- es and MAG-13 is contin- uing its mission - that of providing air support for the ground forces. Brigade Marines are sit-

uated at six different camps here.

The ground forces are lo- cated at Camps Hauge, McTureous, Hansen, Schwab and Sukiran and MAG-13 is at MCAF, Fu- tema. Living quarters vary from

quonset huts at Camp Hauge and McTureous to the two and three story brick barracks at Camp Sukiran and modern ce- ment typhoon-proof buildings at the other camps.

Having sampled many a Marine Corps mess hall meal, and after eating in different mess halls at Fu- tem a and three of the camps, I c "n honestly say that the chow is excellent in both quality and quantity. Among the recreational fa-

cilities available are beaches, hobby shops, libraries, gyms, basketball and handball courts, movies which show first run pictures (at slightly higher rates), skeet shooting and clubs for officers and enlisted men to relax in.

The clubs feature top entertainment three or four times a week. The enter- tainment includes bands and floor shows which are comparable to acts featured

The 100 units were de- signed by Belt, Lemmon and Lo of Honolulu and con- structed by the Del E. Webb Corp. of Phoenix, Ariz., at a total cost of more than one and one-half million dollars.

Accordingto Station Housing officials it is planned that the

The opening of these units is expected to shorten the

2/4 Rotates Thirty Marines By PFC. Leroy Schlegel

CAMP HANSEN, OKI- NAWA Apr. 16 (Delayed)- LtCol. J. R. Fisher, 2/4 CO, bid "Sayonara" to 30 ro- tating Marines this morning in the battalion's mess hall.

During the special break- fast, the mess hall was spe- cially arranged and messmen served the departing batta- lion members.

Cpl. B. L. Michael, H&S- 2/4, was awarded a Meritori- ous Mast by the Colonel fol-

low,ing the steak and eggs meal. Michael earned his cov- eted award for "outstanding" duty within the battalion's S-1 section.

The group departed Okina- wa after the breakfast and flew to K-Bay where they will receive their orders for fur- ther duty.

Also attending the sayonara breakfast were Maj. W. E. Overgaard, 2/4 ExO, and SgtMaj. F. W. Kent, Battalion Sergeant Major.

Please Pass Along To Another Brigade Dependent

2 Newsletter Friday, April 23, 1965

If You Can

`Help Yourself' The First Marine Brigade Newsletter was established,

in part, to "get the word" to dependents about the things they could do to assist themselves and the men who are deployed with the Brigade.

All of us know that separation from those we love and depend on is not easy. We know too that the life of a Ma- rine is not easy.

Every Marine, whether he's on Okinawa, in Viet Nam, or on the high seas, is concerned about his fam- ily and its welfare. The Family Assistance Office was established so the Marine could be assured that his family would receive the necessary help if a situation developed where it needed this assistance.

The Family Assistance Office is operated 24-hours a day by Marines who want to help. Many of them are vol- unteers who are devoting their off-duty time in order to be able to help.

These Marines don't mind work and they don't mind long hours. They have been called upon to do many things which are far from military in nature. They have mowed grass, done household chores, transported dependents and even acted as babysitters.

This they don't mind if the requirement is valid. But they do mind, if they are asked to do jobs that can easily be done by a wife or teen age son or daughter.

"Help yourself" is a good old American invitation to "pitch in" at the dinner table. It may also be considered as an expression of the good old American way of exerting one's own efforts to the maximum before calling for out- side help. The American way is one of maximum inde- pendence and self-dependence.

Help yourself to get the job done if you can, and enjoy the feeling of accomplishment that co-nes from having done a good job.

I advance this suggestion for a good reason. There are dependents here who sincerely need help. The Family Assistance Office is designed to furnish help to those who cannot reasonably help themselves. We want to help these people. However, we can not do it as efficiently if our men and vehicles are tied up doing jobs that could be done by self-help.

I'm sure that the vast majority of dependents who call Family Assistance Office for help do so only be- cause their problem is beyond their own ability to cope with. However, there have been some calls where this is not true.

Again I cordially invite dependents to call on me pe._inally, day or night, if they have problems that can- not be adequately handled by other means. My office telephone is 258-72511. After working hours, you may call me at 252-881.

LtCol. R. M. Head, my executive officer, is also available to answer any problems in my absence. His of- fice telephone is 258-72381. After working hours, he can be reached at 253-496.

Free Bowling Instructions Available to K-Bay Wives

K-Bay wives who are inter- ested in bowling are invited to put aside their cares for an hour each Wednesday for the next four weeks and take ad- vantage of free bowling les- sons at he Station Bowling Al- leys.

The free lessons are being given by instructors from the Pali Lanes in Kailua at the in- vitation of Col. A. M. Moran, Station CO and Sgt. Z. L. Dil- lon, NCOIC of the bowling al- ley.

Ann Stomka is giving the instructions with assistance from Abbie Okerstrom. The instructions are given with the help of audio-visual aids, shadow bowling and lane bowling. Mrs. Stomka and Mrs. Ok-

erstrom are giving the same "Learn to Bow! in Five Les- sons" program that they use at the Pali Lanes. The first

lesson was given Wednesday and it introduced the wives in attendance to the proper me- thod of gripping the ball and the correct footwork to use when bowling.

"The program is designed for the non-bowler or for those who do very little bowling," said Mrs. Stomka.

"However, regular bowl- ers who would like to im- prove their bowling are in- vited to attend," she added.

Mrs. Stomka is a certified instructor with the local Bowl- ing Proprietors Association and also the Baltimore, Md. Association. She was tutored by Joe Wilman and Buddy Bo- mar, two of the finest in- structors in the field of bowl- ing.

Mrs. Okerstrom is of Hawaii's top ranking woman bowlers. She has been assist- ing bowlers for several years

"Rick" To Go Active By July 7

Seventeen years in a ,Ma- rine family has built up an eager desire to join the Corps in young Frederick L. "Rick" Bowling.

In fact, with more than a month still to go before he graduates from high school, "Rick" the son of GySgt. and Mrs A. L. Bowling, is already enlisted in the Corps.

Private Bowling, whose father is Hct:0-Brigade (Rear) Personnel Chief, signed a four-year enlist- ment contract under the 120 - day -delay plan last Satur- day at Pearl Harbor. Under the plan he would have 120 days to report for active duty. However, young Bowling

has decided to forego part of this time and will leave for San Diego around July 7.

"Rick" will graduate from Kailua high school June 6.

He is a member of the dance, concert, and marching bands at KHS and plays a dif- ferent instrument in each one. He hopes to join a Ma- rine Corps Band following the completion of his basic train- ing.

Private Bowling is not over- looking his education. "I plan on entering college after my enlistment," he said. "I feel that the Marine Corps training I receive will be of great help when 1 do enter college."

HEAD START-Frederick L. "Rick" Bowling (3rd from I), gets an early look at some of the equipment he will don as a Marine. Helping him get "squared away" are his father, Gy- Sgt. A. Bowling (2nd from I), Sgt. J. L. Snrader (I), and Cpl. E. J. Kipp.

Chaplain's Corner

Where Do We Go From Here? By Chaplain H. E. Austin

Easter Sunday came, and Easter Sunday has gone! Now we must ask ourselves "Where do we go from here?" The Easter lilies have faded. The Easter hats have lost a little of their original splen- dor. More than likely the new suits and children's apparel are on their way to the clean- ers. The glory of the bright Easter morning is fading fast from our minds. Now, we Christians need to decide what Easter means to us.

The Christian Church has always made Easter a high ,aint in the church year. We have special preaching mis- sions. We have special com- munion service. We plan our religious music and our religious preaching to reach a climax in the glorious dawn. Then, all too often, we Christians are prone to re- lax and coast into some other special day of the church year. The Easter cli- max has been reached-we look back to it with memor- ies instead of looking for- ward with a greater vision. Let us remember that the

first Easter morning was the beginning and not the end! It was the birthday of Christian- ity -that great movement which shot:. the pages of his- tory with the message that God broke through to man. It

was a climax in religious ex- perience, but more than that it was the beginning of the Christian Church as it caught the flame of the Easter sun- rise and burned it into the hearts of consecrated men.

In the 8th chapter of Acts there is an interesting ac- count of the early Chris- tians. Soon after the glorious experience the Christians faced a great persecution. Stephen, the first martyr, was stoned, and the reper- cussions made the early Christians scatter for their safety. They split up as a group, and fled in many directions. You would ima- gine that they slipped away in the darkness. You would think that they wanted to "lay-low" until the heat was

off. You would guess that there would be no whisper from them to disclose their identity. Quite the con- trary! We read in Acts 8:4 that, "those who were scat- tered went about preaching the Word!" The message of Jesus and of His resurrec- tion was so much a part of them that they preached even as they fled. They told everyone that Jesus was the Son of God snd the Savior of men!

Where do we go from here' What effect has Easter 1965 A.D. had on your life? Is Easter over for you-or is Easter a beginning for new height in your Christian ex- perience?

Where do we go-from here?

3/4 Strengthens Marine Security Forces Near Da Nang By PFC. S. J. Priesler

Third Battalion, Fourth Marines, a contingent of the

'deployed 1st Marine Brigade, landed in South Viet Nam last week, thus becoming the first major element of the Brigade to land in that war-torn country.

Commanded by LtCol. D.R. Jones, the almost 1400 men from 3/4 started moving ashore on the morning of Apr. 14 near Da Nang.

The landing was unopposed

as the movement of the Batta- lion was secret and announc- ed only after all hands were safely ashore.

Helicopters moved the battalion from Da Nang to an air base near the city of Hue, some 35 miles north of Da Nang, where it was to guard an important air base. Thus, the battalion will as-

sume a security role that it has played several times be- fore in its past history.

Report From Okinawa tional facilities available, many can be seen writing letters to their wives and par- ents while others who have scheduled appointments talk to their wives from the of- fice or barracks phone via -Ham" radio.

Still others can be seen at the various gift ships in town buying a variety of gifts for "little" Kathy or Bruce back home. Many of the Marines put in

overtime at their job. Many because the job requires some extra time and others to pass the time.

Brigade personnel here have also felt the lack of mail the same as that which exist- ed back at Kaneohe Bay. The mad has started to come

through much better now and it is hoped that in the near fu- ture this situation will be nor- mal. For contrary to popular belief the way to a man's heart is not always through his stomach. Mail is an im- portant morale builder. They want you at home to keep it corning.

There are two thoughts most predominant in the minds of Brigade person- nel here on Okinawa - their loved ones back home and the situation at hand. The First Marine Brigade

was sent here for a very im- portant reason.

The Brigade, as are all Ma- rines, is a "Force in Readi- ness." They "re more than ready. They re primed and await the word.

. In early 1927, the 3rd bat:- -

talion was stationed through- out southern California at railroad depots and aboard trains that were carrying U.S. Mail. Then commanded by Maj. A. A. Vandegrift, its du- ties were to cut down on the increasing number of mail robberies.

Unrest between the Chi- nese Nationalist govern- ment and the feudalist forc- es in China, made it necess- ary for the U.S. President to dispatch a force to protect the lives and property of United States citizens there. The battalion arrived at

Shanghai, China in late Feb- ruary and assumed duties of providing security in the west- ern sector of the international settlement.

World War II found 3/4 assigned to a beach defense sector on the Island of Cor- regidor in Manila Bay, Phil- ippines. In January, 1942, elements of the battalion were detached and sent to Bataan Peninsula where they participated in defen- sive actions.

Upon returning to Corregi- dor, 3/4 established itself as a rugged combat unit. It was the largest of the organized forc- es to take part in the Corregi- dor action.

On May 6, 1942, the battal- ion color was burned, and the surrender of Corregidor by Army General Jonathan Wainwright delivered the

MCAF FUTEMA, OKINA- WA -Days of ups and downs are few and far between for most people, but not for the personnel of Marine Medium Helicopter Squadron-161.

During a 19' hour period on Mar. 25 and 26, the copier pi- lots arid their crews made 1430 landings and take-offs.

The MAG-13 helicopter squadron moved personnel and equipment of the First Battalion, Fourth Marine Regiment, and their gear

from ship to shore.

All of the flights were made from Buckner Bay (White Beach) to either Camp Schwab or MCAF, P-rema. The infantry battalion was moved to Camp Schwab while the copter squadron was transported to Futema. Futema.

Staying in the air for 12

hours on Mar. 25, the heli- copters had moved 1,005 troops and 491,510 pounds

of gear. The equipment was carried both inside and out of the copters. During the 12 hours of flight the HMM - 161 pilots logged 130 hours of flight time.

Not to be outdone by their previous day's work, the heli- copter pilots again took to the air early in the morning Mar. 26. Seven and one-half hours later they had moved 277 troops and 267,900 pounds of equipment to Futema.

During the 19:,, hours spent in the air, HMM :61 pilots logged a total of 221 hours and had completed 715 round trips. This was ac- complished by using 22 heli- copters.

In the same period of time they had moved 1,282 troops and 759,380 pounds of equip- ment. The heaviest load of the entire heli-lift was a "Mighty Mite" jeep weighing 1780 pounds.

HMM-161 summed the whole hell -lift up by saying "You have flown with the rest, now fly with the Best." LtCol. W. E. Morrison, com-

manding officer of HMM-161 said, "It was a tremendous effort by all members of the squadron. Without them the job could not have been done."

surviving, members of 3/4 into the hands of the Japa- nese after bloody hand-to- hand combat on the Cor- regidor beaches. A new third battalion was

formed at Guadalcanal on Feb. 1, 1944. Its participa- tion in the battles for the re- capture of Guam and Okinawa won it much fame and honor as the war neared its end.

3/4 became the first or- ganized force to land in Ja- pan as a conqueror when the organization went ashore on Japanese soil and took possession of the Yokosuka Navy Base on August 30, 1945. The battalion stayed in

Japan as a security force until it was redesignated as the Second Separate Guard Bat- talion a year later.

In a month's time, 3/4 was reactivated again at Tsingtao, China and again they served as a security force. Kaneohe became the home

of 3/4 when the regiment mov- ed to Hawaii in February 1955. Fourteen months later it be- came a part of the newly de- signated 1st Marine Brigade, FMF. The battalion was de- activated in 1959.

In January 1962, seven months after its reactiva- tion, 3/4 departed K-Bay to join forces with a company of Philippine Marines in the aggressor role in Exer- cise Tulungan. The 21 -day SEATO training exercise was held in the Philippines. The battalion Marines re-

turned from Tulungan with high praises ringing in their ears. MajGen. John P. Con- don, who commanded the landing force during Tulun- gan had this to say:

"I feel compelled to make mention of the aggressor force (3/4 ), for without their re- alistic and true to life manner of employment, the training

objectives set forth could not have been met."

"Although small in num- ber, they more than ac- complished their mission," he said. But 3/4 was to gain higher

praise later that same year when Typhoon Karen devas- tated Guam with winds as high as 184 miles per hour. The typhoon left seven dead, hun- dreds injured, and thousands homeless.

Within two and one-half hours notice, some 500 Ma- rines of the battalion were ready to go to the aid of the people of Guam. LtCol. D.N. McDowell, pre-

sently serving as Fourth Ma- rines ExO, commanded the provisional battalion which departed the following day.

3/4 Marines were again assigned the duties of se- curity to prevent looting, enforce curfew, assist the Guam Police Department as directed, and other func- tions as prescribed by the commanding officer. Within one week of their ar-

rival on the island, Marines had distributed more than 1,100 general purpose tents for the homeless Guamanians.

Marines aided in restor- ing electric power, tele- phone communications and utilities to the island. Ma- ny spent their off-duty hours rebuilding the Nuns' con- vent and the cafeteria of the Catholic convent at Vo- na, and other public build. ings. With their efforts, the bat-

talion laid claim to the title "most travelled battalion" in the Corps for 1962. Including Tulungan, the unit sailed, flew, and walked nearly 25,000 miles in the two major opera- tions.

Security duty, be it in war- torn Viet Nam, or elsewhere in the world, is "old hat" to this veteran, combat-ready batta- lion of Marines.

Frequent Dependent Queries Answered by Station Officials

Officials at the Station have found that certain queries have been asked by depend- ents more often than others.

The following information is given to assist in answering these questions.

MOVING Moving from town to Sta-

tion quarters is authorized at government expense as a courtesy move only if moving into Public Quarters and for- feiture of entire housing al- lowance is involved.

If a move is made by K- Bayites from town to Rain- bow Housing (low cost), it will be at the individual's own expense. This personal cost is borne by the individual because he does not forfeit his entire housing allowance.

Information on local moving service and moving vehicle rentals is available by calling Family Assistance at 258- 72935 or 258-72553.

LOAN OF PUBLIC PROPERTY

It sometimes happens that personnel arriving at K-Bay are required to move into off - Station housing prior to the arrival of their household goods.

In cases such as these, a limited amount of govern- ment property (bunks, mat- tresses, sheets, pillow cases, etc.) can be checked out for a brief period of time.

The Station Housing Man- ager said that in cases where TLA (Temporary Lodging Al- lowance) has been exhausted and household goods have not been received, necessary items of furniture may be drawn from the Housing Division.

HOSPITALITY KITS Hospitality kits which in-

clude pots, pans, silverware, and dishes are available through the 0-Wives Club. Highchairs and cribs are also on hand and can be obtained by calling Mrs. E.B. Keyes Jr., 0-Wives Hospitality Chairman, at 258-72337.

However, during the time the Brigade spent aboard ship and the major portion of its stay in West Pac. a major airline had been on strike. This particular airline is the

holder of the military contract which provides for movement of all military mail from Ha- waii to Tokyo. It proved to be an unfortunate coincidence for the Brigade.

With the strike now over. Brigade mail is expected to move regularly and with less time lost in transit. Inthe message, General Carl

cited the Brigade (Rear) Ma- rines at Kaneohe, the Navy and civilians at Hickam AFB for "an outstanding job of sending our mail from Hawaii space available on MATS and operational air."

Little League Season Opens

Orioles Down Dodgers at Coleman Field The K-Bay Little League

baseball season officially got underway Saturday during opening ceremonies at Jerry Coleman Field.

Five Major and five Minor League teams lined the field for the ceremony. The invoca- tion was delivered by Chap- lain H. E. Austin. The teams stood at attention with hats off as the National Color was raised over the center field scoreboard. Music was pro- vided by the Brigade Band.

LtCol. W. H. Macklin, Little League President, threw out the first ball to officially signal the begin- ning of the season. Following the opening cere-

monies, three-inning exhibi- tion games saw the Major League Orioles top the Yan- kees 11-1 and come back in their second game of the day to down the Dodgers 3-2 in a hard-fought game. In the Oriole-Dodger game, Oriole Tony Pendzich connected to dispatch the ball over the center field scoreboard to rack-up the first homerun of the season.

In the remaining exhibition game, the Indians downed the Tigers 10-0 behind the bril- liant pitching of Jim Macklin.

League play got underway Monday as the Orioles downed the Dodgers 18-3. Winning pitchers Kevin Hendrickson and Mike Coats allowed only one hit in the 6-inning tilt. The big blow of the game was a three run producing double with bases loaded off the bat of Mike Heath.

Colston slammed two doubles and a triple in his first three trips to the plate. He scored two runs and knocked in a third tally as Hickam pulled to a 3-0 advantage after 41/2

innings. Gary Bastida gave the

Marines their first score as he poked Hickam starter Dennis Hunt's first pitch of the 5th inning over the left field fence for his first homer of the season. The score became knotted

at 3-3 in the 'Neck half of the sixth as Bacon singled and Reese followed with a ground rule double to open the inn- inning. Mike Harris came on in relief of Hunt and prompt- ly threw a wild pitch which allowed Bacon to score and Reese to move to third. Lara flied to right, but Bob Stoess singled to score Reese.

The Marines came close to winning in their half of the 9th inning when Gil Gomez walked and moved to third on two wild pitches after two were out. Gil De- hoyos also walked, but both men were stranded as Helms grounded out. Helms gained credit for his

second victory of the season against one loss. He struck out one and walked none in 3% innings of work. Colston was the only man to reach base against him in the last three innings as he collected his fourth hit, a single, in five trips to the plate.

Pat Noon started on the hill for the Marines and was the victim of Colston's early slug- ging. He gave way to a pinch hitter in the 5th and Barthol took over the mound chores in the 6th.

Stroke Tells the Tale as Marines

Grab Top Honors in Press Tourney One stroke spelled the dif-

ference last Thursday as Marine linksters captured team honors in a dramatic fin- ish in the Military Press First Annual Golf Tournament at Klipper Course.

The four six-man Marine teams posted a tournament low 1795 to eke out Army with its 1796. The Navy came in third with an 1835 team gross.

The Air Force automatical- ly took fourth place when they failed to field two players in the third flight.
