Brigade Unit Departs K-Bay For Operation 'Alligator Hide

The 1st Battalion, 27th Ma- rines, is enroute to Camp Pen- dleton, Calif., for Operation "Alligator Hide," an amphibious landing exercise by the newly- activated 5th Marine Expedition- ary Brigade (MEB).

Four Marine commands are participating in this exercise; 5th Marine Division, Camp Pen- dleton; 3d Marine Aircraft Wing, El Toro, Calif.; 1st Marine Bri- gade, Kaneohe, Hawaii; and Force Troops, Twentynine Palms, Calif.

Under the command of Bri- gadier General Regan Fuller, the staff of 5th MEB was selected from these four commands and has started planning the details of the exercise from a command post at Twentynine Palms.

Lieutenant Colonel H.J. Nolan, Fleet Marine Force, Pa- cific, Camp Smith, has been assigned as G-2 (Intelligence), Lt- Col. K.C. Williams, FMFPac, Camp Smith, G-3 (Operations), and Major E.A. House, Marine All-Weather Fighter Squadron- 212, Kaneohe, as G-5 (Civil Af- fairs/Civil Action) for this exercise.

The early-May operation will be conducted to train a Regi- mental Landing Team and Marine Air Group to function as a Ma- rine Expeditionary Brigade in conjunction with units of Com- mander, Amphibious Forces, Pa- cific, in an amphibious air/sea assault.

The imaginary situation in- volves the split country of Santa Margarita (Camp Pendleton), located on the southern coast of Kalifornio. In 1945, the country was split into separate govern- ments of Mateo and Horno, each establishing their own capital city, respectively Cristianitos and Horno City.

Six years later, Horno began to seize portions of Mateo 's coas- tal plain by planting guerrillas within the country. The limited military resources of Mateo were kept under constant pressure and to prevent retaliation, Horno con-

structed an extensive barrier system of mine fields, barbed wire and other obstacles along the border.

By the early months of 1966, the situation had become ex- tremely grave for Mateo. Be- cause of the rough terrain of the area, it had become almost im- possible for the government to control guerrilla action and through constant insurgent har- rassments, Mateo's armed forces had been continuously de- creasing in effectiveness.

By early 1967, the Mateo government's ability to control the country was threatened by the

The 120 deaf or blind children were studying different types of aircraft this week and, upon request, the Marine helicopter landed in the school's courtyard, piloted by Captains A. E. Therriault and J. V. Hoekstra.

$500-Million Pay Increase To Become Effective October 1

A $500-million military pay proposal has been sent to Congress by President Johnson.

The increase calls for a flat 5.6 percent across-the-board boost in basic pay for all military personnel, and small increases in quarters allowance for some.

The President recommended that the increases take ef- fect on Oct. 1, 1967.

High administration officials say the structural study should be completed within the next six months.

The new increases in basic pay recommended by the Pre- sident on April 5 range from $5.10 per month for raw recruits to $11? per month for 4-star officers. A major with 12 years' service will receive an extra $41.40 per month: a colonel with 20 years' service will receive a boost of $59.60 per month.

President Johnson said that "For our military personnel, pay alone can never reflect the full measure of our debt. On the bat- tlefields, in outposts where there is tension but no battle, in the vast defense installations of our country, these men and women protect our national security. We

must assure them and their fam- ilies that they will be compensat- ed for their service on a scale which is comparable to that of their 2.5 million civilian co- workers. As civilian pay goes up, so should the pay of the Armed Services."

Pre-Natal Clinic Begins At Dispensary May 2

Dispensary officials announced a policy change that would enable expectant mothers to recei,re pre-natal care at the Kaneohe dispensary.

Beginning Tuesday, May 2, a pre-natal clinic will be offered at the KMC AS dispensary. The clinic will be a branch of the OB Clinic of the Tripler General Hospital and will be conducted by the Triplet- medical staff each Tuesday after- noon.

Expectant mothers, present- ly receiving pre-natal care at Tripler, will have the opportunity on their next vi sit there to choose to be seen at the Kaneohe dispensary or continue being seen at Tripler.

Under the new system, expectant mothers are required to go to Tripler for their first two pre-natal visits. Mothers then will be permitted to be seen at the KMCAS dispensary for the remainder of their appointments, and will go to Tripler for the delivery.

Information about pre-natal visits may be obtained by calling the K MC AS dispensary, extension 72014 or 72015. Appointments for the first pre-natal visits at the Tripler General Hospital may be made by calling Tripler General Hospital, 86-8643.

Water Carnival QueenContest Begins April 28

Preparations have begun for the 7th Annual K-Bay Water Car- nival at KMCAS on June 18.

Traditionally, the selection of the Carnival Queen is the first major event. Various units are grouped to obtain an equal number of personnel supporting each candidate. Queen selection is based on a most-money-raised basis by her supporting unit.

Participating units perform various feats, works, gimmicks, sales and games in an effort to have their queen hopeful selected as 1967 Water Carnival Queen.

Last year's queen, Mrs. Bar- bara Diener, was the candidate of Station Operations.

Other highlights of the festival will be power boat racing, canoe races, water skiing and sky div- ing and a carnival midway.

LtCol. A.D. Albert i s the 1967 chairman and has appointed the following to head committees; Major H.J. Keeling, program events director; Captain J.C. Hen-

Stay Loose It's so easy to render the hand solute, you'd think anyone could d"

it, wouldn't you? Not so. Just look around you carefully,and you'll Mee so many varied

salutes that it will take your breath away. I have categorized the more common types, and I hereby pass the list on to you for your considera- tion:

INTERNATIONAL COURIER - This type can manage to switch a

burden - commissary bag, briefcase, or even just a guard roster from his left hand to his right hand with such innate clumsiness as to make

you believe that he is burdened like an ox and that saluting would do

him great bodily harm.

CASUAL CHARLIE - He waves as often as he salutes. Even when he salutes, he manages to make it look like he's waving. He is so casual and relaxed, you half expect to hear him say. "Hi, there," or "Howdy-do, Sir," or "How y'all?"

SECRET AGENT - You can recognize this one even before he salutes. He wears his collar turned up toward his ears, keeps his neck pulled down, and darts furtive glances in all directions. When he salutes, he does so rapidly and surreptitiously, for all the world as

though he's avoiding surveillance by another agent. BLIND BILL - This is really a pathetic case. Bill simply cannot

see approaching officers, flags or decals on automobiles. As often as

not, he cannot even see sedans marked plainly with General Officers' flags. It is a great mystery how he ever negotiates the various routes leading to the PX, the camp theater, the swimming pool, the recreation pool, the recreation clubs, and the bus station.

CONTINENTAL CAL - This one salutes sharply and smartly...with his palm facing forward. Rumor has it that he served in the British Air Force once and still hasn't changed his style of saluting. Another rumor has it that his arm was crushed and his palm just naturally faced

forward. Another rumor has it,....but, thct's another story.

DEAF DAN - This person has such an acute loss of hearing that playing of "To the Colors" does not register upon his consciousness. He apparently suffers only a frequency loss: It has been noted that he responds satisfactorily to chow call, pay call, and liberty call. It is assumed, of course, that he'd be more than glad to stop and render honor to the colors...if he could only hear the music.

CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS - This saluter shades his eyes with his right hand. An officer is hesitant to call him down for it; after all, no

une wants to go down in history as the guy who stood in the way of someone discovering the new world, or something.

If you do not fit into any of the above categories, perhaps you've already arrived at the point which I advocate - rendering of the proper salute. Perhaps you already know the finer points of where, when, why

and how the salute should be given. Perhaps you already practice these things consistently.

It's so easy, you'd think anyone could do it? Wouldn't you?

IT COULD HAPPEN TO YOU - Although this is a simulated accident of bicyclist suddenly cutting in front of a car, it could happen, and almost did, Last week a youngster went into the Little League Ball Park fro, Lawerence Road just before 7:30 a.m. Then for some reason he turned .- round and recrossed Lawrence Road to go toward Mokapu Road without looking a. making a hand signal. Now, if the driver who almost hit him had

not been alert, the scene above could very well have been a reality. So,

parents, be sure that your children know the rules of bicycling and try to

keep them off Lawrence Road until after 7:30 a.m. when there is less traffic and the speed limit changes from 25 to 15 mph.

Q: ornery- By Chaplain H.E. Austin

Look Up! Jesus knew the limitations of

His disciples. He knew theywere under the heel of Rome and in- fluenced thereby. He knew they were unlearnediand had little training. Yet by counseling them to look elsewhere, He cautioned them against looking at the discouraging aspects of their lives. "Lift UP your eyes," He said, "and look on the fields." Jesus knew that the upward look helps, and that the downward look hurts. He knew that trials are temporary, that the darkest hour must give way to dawn, that the fiercest storm must blow away, and that weeping may endure for the night and yet joy comes in the morning.

Let us, therefore, look away from loneliness, anxiety, and fa- tigue. Let us look to the patriots before us, whose bleeding foot- prints stretch from the snows of Valley Forge to the sands of Vietnam. Let us furthermore, gain inspiration by looking to our loved ones back home, for whose very lives and liberties our troops are now struggling.

Finally, let us, through pray- er, look to God, the Father of us all, and hear Him say, "As thy days, so shall thy strength be"; "God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted (tired)

Battalion Storms Molokai's More than 1200 Marines, from

the 1st Battalion, 27thMarines, stormed ashore at Papohaku Beach on Molokai during Battalion Landing Exercise (LEX) 1-67, April 6.

H --Hour was at 9:15 a.m. and, as the landing craft approached the beach, two F-8 "Crusaders"

from VMF-212 conducted six low passes in simulated close air support.

On the beach, 1/27 divided into two groups and started mov- ing inland toward "guerrilla- held" positions. The "guerrillas," fifty members of tat An- glico, had constructed 10 bunk- ers, surrounded by simulated concertina wire and mine fields, in an effort to slow 1/27's pro- gress.

During the exercise, the first two Marines from each company were declared killed or wounded in action and were evac- uated back to their ship by helicopter. Due to a shortage of ag- gressors, members of Anglico tagged by an umpire as KIA were released and rejoined their company. One umpire was assigned to each company.

Other units from Kaneohe taking part in the operation were H&MS, providing tactical heli- copters and MACS-2, maintaining radio contact between the Air Station and units on Molokai.

Navy units taking part in the exercise were Commander, Am- phibious Squadron Three, (attack transport USS George Clymer,

Papohaku Beach LSD USS Belle Grove and LST Wexford County) Underwater De- molition Team 12, Tactical Air Control Squadron-11 and Naval Beach Group 1. For transporta- tion of the Marines, COM- PHIBRQN provided three ships, attack transport USS George Clymer, Landing Ship Tank USS

Wexford County and Landing Ship Dock USS Belle Grove.

On the morning of April 7, a withdrawl was held with troops and equipment being taken back to the ships. The battalion arrived back in Pearl Harbor on Saturday.

5 Day Leave Extensions

For Recruiting Enlistees Marines on leave, who are

instrumental in recruiting ac- ceptable applicants for en- listment in the Marine Corps, may be granted a five-day extension leave according to MCO 1050.1C.

Marines en route to school or other duty such as sea duty, where definite reporting dates are es- tablished by the Commandant of the Marine Corps, cannot receive an extension beyond their reporting date. Orders of these Marines will be endorsed to auth- orize a five-day leave or extension subsequent to completion of the school or reporting to a new duty station.

actual presence of regular army forces from Horno. At this time, Mateo President Ricardo Acosta requested the assistance of the United States under treaty terms.

In response to the appeal, Commander, Amphibious Group One, was directed to conduct an amphibious assault with the 5th MEB and to conduct operations ashore which will result in the stabili7atioe' of the situation and quick return of lost territory to the control of Mateo.

Coincidence Reveals All K-Bay SgtMajs. Have Same..Birthdates

Here's one fit for Ripley or Don Adams. Every sergeant major at Marine Corps Air Sta- tion, Kaneohe, was born the same year.

Sergeant Majors Stanley A. Glogowsky of Station; Israel J. Ginsburg at Marine All-Weather Fighter Squadron-212; William E. Lang, Marine Air Control, Squadron-2; Clarence E. Call, 1st Radio Battalion; Kenneth Chase, 1st Marine Brigade; and Frank B. Jenness, Headquarters and Headquarters Squadron, all have birthdays within a ten-month period. All except Lang enlisted in the year between October 1939 and October 1940.

Not wishing to make any sergeant major's most-wanted list, we refuse to divulge who is the eldest, the order of age or the year.

The coincidence was only made possible by the absence of the seventh sergeant major, John Lossie Jr., 1st Battalion, 27th Marines, who is off-island on a landing exercise. He's the youngster of the lot.

Summer Activities Program Announced For K-Bay Youths

The KMC AS Pre-School will offer a Summer Activities Program for those children too young for the regular Summer Fun Program. Activities planned for the children include picnics, stores, games, art, music, dancing, nature, crafts, dramatics and stories. There will also be field trips if possible.

To attend the Summer Activi- ties Pre-School Program, a child must be 3 years old by July 1 and not older than 5 years old by Jan. 1, 1967.

The program will begin June 5 and continues for eight weeks until July 28. It will be held at the regular Pre-School building, (Old Mokapu School) from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. daily. Bus service is available for children residing aboard station.

Children may be registered on a first come first serve basis, beginning April 14 at 9:30 a.m. at the Child Care Center. Cost for the entire eight weeks will be $30 per child, with an additional charge for bus service.

CHANGEOVER CHORES - Credit Union employees, (I-r) Mrs. Charlotte Darby, Mrs. Patricia Hemphill, Mrs. Gloria Eden and Mrs. Cecelia Finn, receive instructions from bank representative Eugene Schaardt concerning new computer procedures.

Credit Union Services Improve Through Use Of IBM Computer

In an effort to bring better service to its members, K-Bay's Federal Credit Union has enlisted the services of the First National Bank's IBM Computer.

Now in a transitional stage from the hand computed methods of the past, to the mechanical processing of the future, the Credit Union will soon have all detailed paperwork performed by the machine.

The computer will take over such tasks as computation of interest for loans, compiling managerial reports, giving delin- quent and quarterly reports, weekly trial balances, paid divi- dends and 1099 forms for tax purposes.

The MC AS Credit Union is the 33rd organization to join the bank's computer system since its introduction in March, 1965.

Voted on by the Credit Union's board of directors, the plan will bring better service to the union's members by freeing the staff from time consuming tasks so

they might devote more time to their members.

Two of the bank representa- tives, Miss Candy Mullins and Carl Yamamoto, are working with the union staff during the transi- tion period and instructing them on changes to be made.

Housing Occupants Two trash cans and cov-

ers are given to each quarters and are included in the inven- tory. Occupants will be held responsible for losses and will be billed for replacements according to Dean L. Neves, housing manager.

High winds, in recent weeks, have caused papers and trash laying loose in trash cans to be blown in neighbor- ing yards and streets. To eliminate unsightly con- ditions in the housing area, tenants are requested to co- operate by covering all trash containers.

Pollock Field will be the setting Monday night as Intramural Softball swings into action, kicking off an 11-game schedule for each intramural team.

During the past few weeks, K-Bay teams have been working out in preparation for the forthcoming games.

Kicking off the season at 5:30 p.m. will be VMF-212 (A) against the Special Services nine. A second game will follow at 7:30, which will pit Pacific Missile Range against the Data Pro- cessing team.

Softball action will be played under the rules of the Amateur Softball Association, with um- pires from the Armed Forces Officials Association, officiating at all games.

Weather will play an important factor in the games to come, and if a game is called by the umpire because of weather, it will be considered an incomplete game unless five or more innings have been played. The score at the end of the last completed inning will be considered the score of the game. The decision of whether a game is called is completely up to the official.

0-Wives Set Election Date: Champagne Brunch Slated

By Midge Lucas Wigs off to Anglico Wives for

the excellent April 4 0-Wives Luncheon which they hosted. The wig fashion show was enjoyed by all, but perhaps even more by Mahana Hornett, as she held the winning ticket for the val- uable wig door prize.

Jan Wilkinson looked stun- ning as a redhead while Sadie Ferrington was also outstanding as a silver blonde. Patsy Hanson looked elegant in a black fall. Cophine Farris drew applause in a frosted brunette wig. Maki Michaelsen was lovely in an off- black wig. Edie Rigg's wiglet was a perfect match for her dark brown hair. There were other good -looking models and wigs but the most outstanding sight of all were the gals wearing their nylon stocking caps before they put on the wigs.

A particularly fine thank-you letter was read, during the business meeting, from Capt. J. B. McDevitt, USN, President of the Armed Forces Retarded Child- ren's Association. Among many other things, he stated that the

nes+ rt." I nn+ rtni Practically everything you

can think of has become a science. But this must be the first an- nouncement of the development of girl-watching into a science.

After a considerable study and formulation we have compiled a city-by-city rating of the available feminine pulchritude. Ac- cordingly, the most beautiful women in the world are found in Rio de Janeiro. Second ranked city is Bangkok, third is Madrid and Tokyo takes fourth place.

Raw data was obtained by ob- servation on street corners, campuses, in bistros, offices, supermarkets, department stores, hotels and sporting events. To figure the quantity of beautiful girls per 100 total, you start with the figure-analysis standard, add the facial quotient, multiply by grace and glamor factors. Then take the age-weight-height esti- mates and feed all figures into the X93-B-10 computer.

The mathematical equivalen- cies came out Rio 13.7, Bangkok 13.2, Madrid 12.8, Tokyo 12.6.

Oddly enough, the first-rank-

ing American town was Salt Lake City in 52nd place with a beauty quotient rating (BQR) of 6.9. Then comes Natchez, Miss., in 64th with 6.2; Lincoln Neb., 71st at 5.8; Washington, D.C., 78th with 5.4.

Lowest cities in the scale were Grand Rapids, Mic., at .007; Milwaukee, Wis., .01; Joplin, Mo., .03; and Muskegon, Mich., .03.

We'll admit to a few bugs in the system. There's a slight preference for Oriental women, and we've had no opportunity to study in Scandinavia or Russia. Then in California our sampling techniques faltered when we were unable to positively differentiate between flat-chested boys and short-haired girls.

This system should have an important impact on our modern society -- for example where to send a boy to college and where to ship a homely girl to grab a husband. It could be utilized also in positioning military installations.

Night Operation At Molokai Nets Shore Party 124 Crabs

By Pfc. P.C. Westmoreland

While attached to the 1st Bat- talion, 27th Marines, recent amphibious landing exercise on Mo- lokai, I observed the 5th Shore Party Platoon in a little off- combat action.

The men, commanded by Sec- ond Lieutenant James S. Rector, had been put on the beach April 3 to set up a command post from which they could send back surf reports, and, after the main landing, to re-supply the Marine in- fantrymen with ammunition, fuel and rations.

In preparation for the sched- uled April 5 assault, Shore Party organized troop flow patterns on the beach, fuel dumps, supply lines, in addition to making beach markers and maintaining radio communications with the rest of the participating units.

When the designated D-Day came around, heavy surf and winds, coupled with a stuck Land- ing Craft Utility near the landing area, forced a one-day postpone- ment of the landing, leaving 51 Shore Party members with nothing to do.

That night as they sat around the command post listening to the jargon of code names sputter over the radio, the men got restless and needed some exercise to relieve built-up pressures. Since all they had to eat were cans of C-rations, containing such meals as ham and lima beans, a roll, some cookies and jam, the men put down their M-14 rifles and, following the respected advice of the scholar who said necessity is the mother of invention, took up flashlights to try their luck at catching crabs on Papohaku Beach.

I had serious doubts concerning the success of their hair- brained idea, but I, being as hungry and restless as they were, helped out by holding the "crab- bag", a canvas ditty sack which, according to their enthusiastic reassurances, would soon be overflowing with crabs.

The platoon formed a skirm- ish line and the men walked down the beach with lights shining ahead. Suddenly a crab was spot- ted and the 5th Shore Party went into action, setting up flanks to prevent the creature's escape and then closing in.

With 40 men dashing for a crab, a collision with a following mass confusion could not be averted and the fortunate creature escaped.

This time one individual was assigned to each crab and using

this technique, crab after crab was captured and thrown into the bag. The sack became a burden as I quickly ran to answer the scattered calls of "Bag-man!"

I had no desire to have a finger bitten off trying to catch something I didn't even like to eat,-but some wise-guy yelled, "Let the cameraman try" and it was my turn. The "Doc" was there so I

was in good hands. After several blunders, in-

cluding following one cursed crab into the ocean and stepping on another, I managed to catch one and immediately tossed it into the bulging "crab-bag."

An hour later, the weary crew arrived back at base camp with a proud and surprising catch of 124 crabs. During the course of the trip, I, with my hands a little nipped up, managed to get 7, but the grand total of Sgt. David A, Hopper's 27 far outdid everyone else - and his slashed fingers showed it.

Now a kettle had to be found in which to boil the crabs and once again the improvising members of 5th Shore Party thought up a way - they were wearing the pot. A Marine's helmet was tied over a fire and the crabs were boiled.

Soon, everyone gathered around the fire to enjoy fresh crab meat, agreeing that the hour - long escapade was well worth it.
