MajGen Wilson named new CG; LtGen Jones scheduled to retire

FMFPAC - Major General Louis 11. Wilson Jr., Medal of Honor recipient and former chief of staff, FMFPac, Camp Smith, was named FMFPac's new commanding general Monday morning in Washington, D.C. General Wilson will be relieving retiring Lieutenant General William K. Jones during a change of command ceremony at Camp Smith, Aug. 31.

MajGen Wilson enlisted in the Marine Corps Reserve in May 1941, and in November 1941, he was commissioned a second lieutenant. His first assignmenit after completing officers' basic training was no the Marin:. Corps Base, San Diego, where he joined the 9th Marine Regiment.

He went overseas with the 9th Marines in February 1943, stopping at Guadalcanal, Efate, New Hebrides, Bougainville, British Solomon Islands, again at Guadalcanal, and then at Guam. In the assault on Guam on July 25 and 26, 1944, he was in command of Company "F," Second Battalion, 9th Marines, 3d Marine Division, when he distinguished himself with performance "above and beyond the call of duty" which earned for him the Medal of Honor.

Because of wounds he received in that battle, he was evacuated to the U.S. Naval Hospital, San Diego, where he remained until Oct. 15, 1944.

General Wilson returned to duty as Commanding Officer of Company "ID," Marine Barracks, Camp Pendleton, but in December 1944, he was transferred to Washington, D.C., where tic served as Detachment Commander of the Marine Barracks and Post Security Officer. While serving in Washington, he was formally presented the Medal of Honor by President Truman.

During post-war assignments, General Wilson served at the Marine Corps Institute in Washington, D.C.; as Aide-de-Camp to Lieutenant General

A.H. Turnage, Commanding General, FMFPac Hawaii; and as Officer in Charge, District Headquarters Recruiting Station, New York, N.Y., remaining there until August 1951.

Transferred to the Marine Corps Base, Quantico, Va., he served

LtGen Jones

consecutively as Commanding Officer of the Basic School's 1st Training Battalion, Commanding Officer of Camp Barrett, arid Executive Officer of The Basic School prior to completing the Officers' Senior Course in August 1954. After a brief tour as a Senior School instructor, he departed for Korea to serve as Assistant G-3, until Augu6t i9a5, wiser, lie was named Commanding Officer of the 2d Battalion, 5th Marines.

In March 1956, General Wilson was again assigned to Headquarters Marine Corps where he served for two years as Operations Officer, G-3 Division. Upon completion of that tour, he again returned to Quantico, and served first as Commanding

Officer of the Training and Test Regiment, Basic School, until June 1960, when he was designated

Commanding Officer of The Basic School.

In June 1962, General Wilson graduated from the National War

MajGen Wilson

College in Washington, D.C., and was then assigned as Deputy Chief of Staff (Plans and Programs), at Headquarters Marine Corps until he was transferred to the 1st Marine Division. He went overseas with the First Marine Division in August 1965, stopping at Okinawa before going on to Vietnam. In recognition of his service in Vietnam as Assistant Chief of Staff, he was awarded the Legion of Merit and the Republic of Vietnam Cross of Gallantry with one gold star.

Upon his return to the United States, General Wilson reported to Atlanta, Ga., and assumed command of the 6th Marine Corps District in August 1966. Promoted to brigadier general, Nov. 3, 1966, he returned to

Career planners say diploma necessary NAVY TIMES -- Beginning Jan.

I, 1973, any Marine planning to re-enlist for the second time will need a high school education or its GED equivalent.

The requirement will be in a new three-volume Career Planning and Development Guide. The guide will replace the current career planning manual and be so comprehensive that

Earn your HS diploma now K-BAY - Those of you who are interested in obtaining that much

needed high school diploma should contact the Base Education Office for the 'scoop' on how to do so.

If you fall in the class of persons who are planning to re-enlist for a second time, the high school diploma or its GED equivalent is required anyway. Why not start now?

The St. Louis High School of Honolulu initiated a High School Diploma Program here the latter part of 1971. The program is offered at no cost to you. The bill is picked up under the PREP Program by the Veterans Administration. Al you need to supply is the initiative.

All classes in the program consist of 63 hours of classroom work. This is 31/2 hours a day, 3 days a week for six weeks. Homework is done in the class, leaving the student free afterwards, and classes are held at night.

It is offered to any Marine or Sailor with 180 days or more active duty service.

The requirements and courses that have to be taken to achieve a high school diploma varies from student to student, depending upon their education background.

Some 45 Marines have already graduated from the program and are glad they took it. You can earn your diploma too! All you need to do is stop in or call the Joint Education Center (72061).

two of the books will be devoted entirely to career patterns -one for officers and the other for enlisted.

The new manual also will okay five-year re-enlistments, take shipping over interviews out of company offices and double the request time for those asking for service beyond 20 years.

Madcop selectees will not need HQMC approval to extend or reenlist to meet Madcop obligated service.

Much of the new guide will reiterate policy changes adopted in the last year, such as the October 1971 decision to require sergeants and above to have HQMC permission before reenlisting.

A few surprises are in store such as the educational requirement.

It'll say in effect that Marines had better have a high school education, at the least, if they want to make a career of the Corps.

The guide will require a diploma or GED equivalent for a. second re-enlistment after Jan. 1. Not changed is the need for a 10th grade minimum for a first re-enlistment.

The high school requirement does not affect those already in their third enlistment. HQMC figures the die is cast for those old-timers, most of whom are close to Fleet Marine Corps Reserve eligibility anyhow.

Headquarters Marine Corps, in January 1967, for duty as Legislative Assistant to the Commandant of the Marine Corps, serving in this capacity until July 1968.

From August 1968 until March 1970, General Wilson served as Chief of Staff, Fleet Marine Force, Pacific, and earned a Gold Star in lieu of a second Legion of Merit. Prior to his detachment from Fleet Marine Force, he was advanced to the rank of major general, March 16, 1970. He then saw a one year tour of duty as Commanding General, 1 Marine Amphibious Force/3d Marine Division.

MajGen Wilson assumed his current duties as Deputy for Education/Director, Education Center, Marine Corps Development and Education. Command, Quantico, in April 1971.

He will join Maj Robert J. Modrzejewski, of 2/3 at K -Bay, as the only Medal of Honor recipients on the Island.

Jr. ROTC

seeks help WASHINGTON, D.C. - The

Marine Corps is looking for retired Marines, or Marines who will retire before September, to serve as instructors starting this fall at four Marine Corps Junior ROTC units.

Openings are available for both officer and enlisted retirees at high schools in River Rouge, Mich., Piscataway, N.J., Jacksonville, Fla., and Fern Creek, Ky. Retired officers serve as senior military instructors and staff NCOs as military instructors.

Under the program the salary paid to a retired instructor must be at least equal to the total pay and allowances received on active duty. The government pays the retired stipend, with the school paying at least the difference between active duty and retired pay. Uniforms are worn in discharging daily duties.

Although applications are desired and will be considered from all

Learn all about autos K-BAY - Gavilan College's Vocational Training Program, which

officially opens its doors for operation here Aug. 2, is the subject of much discussion and interest aboard the Air Station.

Representatives at the Joint Education Center, located at the 7-Day Store complex, report that since Friday they have received numerous calls from interested personnel seeking information on registration for courses being offered.

Last week the Hawaii Marine printed a synopsis of the curriculum for Police Science and Construction Technology. This week we have provided similar information on both the Automotive Mechanics and Body Fender courses. The latter courses are to be offered during early October.

Basic prerequisites for enrollment in on-base vocational training are: Be a K-Bay based 18-year-old or older Marine sergeant (E-5) or below (or equivalent Naval rating) with at least 180 days of active service. A high school diploma is not required.

Registration is now being conducted at the Joint Education Center from 7:30 to 11:30 a.m, and again from I to 3 p.m. on Fridays and from 1 to 6 p.m. Monday through Thursday, and is on a first come, first served basis.

In reply to many calls from staff non-commissioned officers

curriculums, page 3

requesting information about the Police Science Program, the Joint Education Center stresses that although established primarily for junior enlisted personnel, SNCO5 will be accepted on a space available basis for this course only.

The entire tab for enrollment in either of the four courses, with the exception of text book cost, is picked up by the VA.

This unique self-improvement program became a reality here after development of an idea presented during the Air Station's Human Affairs study seminar last fall.

SOMS' SAR crew rescue phantom pilot K-BAY -- Crews of Marine

Search and Air Rescue recently 'chalked' up another successful mission when two K-Bay Marines were rescued after their aircraft went down.

The aircraft, an F-4 Phantom Jet went into the ocean 75 miles north of Oahu at approximately 6 p.m., July I I. The craft was on a normal training mission.

A C11-46 SAR helicopter was airborne at the time. Its pilot, Capt Robert Metier and crew-Sgt Litchfield, Crew Chief, and LCpl G.H.

Have rley, First Mechanic- received word that a possible emergency may have arisen.

Immediately heading back to K-Bay they were informed that the craft had gone down, but the crew was safe after ejecting. "I elected to refuel before attempting the mission," says Capt Fleener. "We knew the crew was safe in the water by reports from the lead aircraft of the training mission, which was keeping them in site until our arrival."

As a safety precaution', two corpsmen boarded the SAR helicopter while it wr refueling...in case their services were needed.

"We arrived at the site at approximately 7 p.m. I spotted the airborne Phantom and a minute later the pilots," says Capt Fleener.

"The downed crewmen popped red smoke and a green dye marker. This aided with determining the wind direction. We made one low pass and then came to a hover 50 feet above

and hoisted them aboaro," he reports. "The two crew members had no

apparent injuries, but were taken to the dispensary upon our arrival at K-Bay," Capt Fleener concludes.

The crewmen of the downed aircraft are IstLt James Amos, 26, of Anchorage, Alaska, the pilot, and Capt Richard Holt, 28, of Lawton, Oklahoma, the Radar Intercept Officer,

NAVY PROMOTION CHANCES

Marines thanked for work on chapel

Chapel during September 1970. Father Damien was a Belgium

priest who, almost 100 years ago, helped treat Hawaiian victims of leprosy.

His chapel had fallen into a bad state of repairs and K-Bay Marines under the leadership of the then K-Bay Catholic Chaplain, Father William J. Biffar, volunteered to help restore it. Although the patients at the settlement were unable to give physical aid they provided cold drinks to the Marines working on the Chapel.

The group of Marines repainted the chapel, both inside and out, replaced wood which had suffered termite damage and did masonry work on the belfry and chapel tower. In addition, they restoredthe original iron fence around Father Damien's grave.

Following his death in 1889 of Hansen's Disease (leprosy), Father Damien's remains were interred for 47 years next to the chapel. In 1936, at

the request of King Leopold, they were removed to Belgium.

Our leadership abilities are what we make them

During the Korean war the late LtGen Lewis B. "Chesty" Puller, who was the regimental com..ander of the 1st Marine Regiment, was checking one of his rifle company lines. The company commander told Chesty that one of his sergeants was officer material, that he was better than a sergeant. The then Colonel Puller snapped, "Nobody is better than a Sergeant -- I should know, I used to be one."

Chesty Puller was a Marine's Marine, and a great combat leader, but, he didn't get all his ability out of a book. He got it the hard way--through study and practical experience. This is the only way you can learn leadership, for leaders aren't born, they are made.

Sure you can check out the FM-22-100, the manual on leadership and you can read it and learn about the 14 traits of leadership, and the 11 principles of leadership, but this alone will not make you a leader.

Everyone in the Marine Corps, from the private in the ranks to the highest Honcho, is a potential leader, but it takes training. The man has to want to be a leade. This means he has to be motivated to lead.

Out of the 14 trails of leadership, each one is very important, but how many times have you heard a man being chewed out in ranks, in front of his buddies? A little tact can go a long way as the saying goes, Praise in Public and Reprimand in Private.

The main objective of any military leader is to accomplish his mission in combat, but as the rules say, the mission first, then the welfare of his men. If it means keeping men in the cold rain and snow to keep safe,

by Sgt 'Mojo' Ryan

then this is what he has to do. For a man to lead men he must

understand them, and this means not only listening to but also trying to help solve their problems. If he can't, then guide them to someone who can. He must train his men as a team and instill in them the Esprit de Corps- the feeling of "All for One, and One for All."

Now this won't come overnight, it will take years and it will take hard work on the part of the individual, (or he has to want to lead, and lead right.

Along this same line he has to know his job, and be aware of his strong points as well as his weak ones, and seek to improve himself. A leader should know his men.. Forexample, he should know each man's name, rank, social security number, date of rank, height, weight, color of eyes, color of hair, shirt size, boot size, dress shoe size, trousers size, and if married their wife's name, if any children, their names and ages and when they were born. These are just a few things a leader has to know.. There are, of course, many more.

Leadership covers a lot of areas, but mainly a leader must set the example at all times in his dress and military bearing. Of course.he doesn't have to be six foot four to look like a leader. He shouldn't walk around with his hands in his pockets or stand stooped over like he has forty pounds of wet clay on his back.

A good leader should always stand up for what he believes is right and never back downs. When he makes a decicion, stand by it. He is the man on the scene, and it's Isis job as a leader to make sound and timely

for marriage? by E. Dean Cook

Camp Smith Chaplain (A) If you are single, do you have serious questions about getting married?

(B) Are you afraid it nray not work? (C) If you are already married is your marriage as successful as you had expected it to he? If you answered yes to questions (A) and (B) or no to question (C) then go on the the next paragraph.

Do you know that there is spiritual and scientific basis for predicting success and failure in marriage?

Whether or trot a marriage is successful depends on the quality of the two people who have chosen to marry. Success in marriage depends greatly upon the personalities of the two people and personality does not normally change at or after the wedding ceremony. Personality is something you have already developed by the time you say "I do".

"But", someone may say, "my husband or my wife was not like that before we were married, they really did change!" Certainly they appeared to change but after marriage they merely reverted to the real self they suppressed or controlled during the courtship. All of us have temporarily adjusted our personalities at some time in order to get what we muted.

Since personality plays such a major role in the marriage relationship, success can be predicted rather accurately by personality tests.. This is exactly what Dr. Lewis Terrnan found when he tested 792 married couples. According to his study, happily married women had happy personalities. The same was found to be true of the men.

It was also found that people with unhappy personalities were unahppy in marriage. Other evidence to substantiate this fact is overwhelming.

Since this is true, then, how and when do you prepare for a successful marriage, Ideally you should start with yourself before you reach the age of 12. Those early years form your basic personality profile. If you are older than 12 you can still change but it won't be as easy. True grit can produce change if you are disciplined enough to stick with it over a long period of time. Religious experience can also produce change and often instantaniausly.

Of these two methods I recommend the latter for several reasons. (1) First because its more accessable than true grit. To tell some people to have true grit is like telling a paralytic to pole vault. But a religious experience is as accessable to the weak as it is to the strong (2) Secondly, true grit depends entirely upon the persons own inner strength, while religious experience has the assistance of Divine power. (3) Thirdly, true grit, while seeking to emphasize the good qualities, must constantly battle to suppress the bad ones. Religious experience can cleanse the individual of the bad ones while leaving a favorable climate for the good ones.

In conclusion, if and when you have your happy and positive personality you are still only 50% prepared for a successful marriage. Next you must discover or develop a marriage partner with the same qualities.

What's Wrong

With This Room?

Home is not no ,weet when you consider that accidents there kill or disable more than 4 million Americana a year.

The major domestic dangers that take 27,000 lives each year are listed. Ly the National Safety Council under falls, fires, poison, firearms, sharp objects and electricity.

How do each of these effect you? FALLS: Two-thirds of all falls occur at floor level.

They can be caused by an object on the floor, spilled liquid, a turned up rug edge, or unnoticed pets.

The steps in the trailers are quite hazardous. Many times they are unnoticed by visitors and misjudged by the occupants, causing falls which rause leg injuries. The stairs in family housing can also be hazardous, especially for small children or adults if small children leave toys on the stairs.

Bathrooms need non-skid rugs on the floor and a rub- ber mat in the tub. Night lights are recommended in the bathrooms, hallways and bedrooms.

FIRES: Among the many ways tires start is by care- less smoking habits. A forgotten cigarette is danger- ous and remember to keep matches and lighters away from children. Keep flamable liquids, such as the gaso- line for the lawn mower, stored in safety cans away from heat. Put oily rags in tightly covered metal cans or hang them in the open.

With summer coming up soon remember to be care- ful with the charcoal grills. Never use gasoline to start your charcoal.

A blown fuse is a warning that something is wrong. No matter whether it is a short or an overloaded cir- cuit, both are fire hazards. Find the cause and correct it before replacing the fuse or resetting the circuit breaker.

ANSWERS 1. Household cleansers under sink, within reach of little

children. 2. Electric outlet overloaded, 3. Mother testing mix with finger while mixer is working. 4. Toaster cord dangling over side of counter, within

chances are that members of a K-Bay baseball team might just wind up playing in this year's World Series.

From this Play-Off series over the weekend will emerge a set of smiling 11-12 year olds that might just wind up in the World Series of Little League.

The Swim-A-Thon, a fund raising effort with the goal of making $10,000 to be used in the club's travel fund, will be the culmination of weeks of planning and pledge gathering by the club's more than 150 membqrs.

The club's swimmers have been collecting pledges from the entire community, bawd on how many laps each thinks he (or the) can swim. After the two day event, the swimmer collects money for the actual distance he swam. The money is pledged at a certain amount per lap (from 1 penny up).

Swimmers will swim continuously for two straight hours or 200 25-yard laps, whichever conies first. No swimmer may exceed these limits.

Aulea will be running a food booth on the beach for spectators (who are urged to attend by the hundreds). Entertainment is scheduled, and a large progress board

Bono'

will be maintained to keep all informed on how close to the goal the swimmers are getting.

City and County Governmental departments have given their full cooperation and will have lifeguards mid rescue facilities on hand.

In a show of support for the Aulea cause an "Over the Hill" team will be swimming along with the youngsters.

Some of the distinguished members of the "Over the Hill" team will be State Senator Fred Rohlfing, Kailua Honorary Mayor Lowery Roobian, Paul Bragg, a 91-year-old fitness expert and Ford Konno, the last Olympic Gold Medal winner for swimming out of Hawaii (he won his in 1952).

The Reverend Abraham Akaka will give a blessing at the start of the event and LtCol Walter R. Ledbetter, X0 KMCAS, will speak on behalf of the Aulea Swim Club. Lowery Roobian and Al Minn (Attlee Head Coach) will also speak briefly before the Swim-A-Thon gets under way.

Cheryl Petty (at bat) prepares to swing at pitch by a Wheeler "Red Barons" pitcher during Saturday's exciting season- closing game. The excitement came as the game was extended from the normal five innings to seven with a wavering eight run tie. A stolen home-plate eventually gave the game to Cheryl's team, the K-Bay "Hotshots." The Hotshots ended their season with a 10-3 record, putting them in second place overall in their island-wide age division. The Hawaii Military Youth Girl's Softball League has three divisions: Pigtail, 9-11 years old; Ponytail, 12-13 years old and Senior, 14-18. Of the five teams from K-Bay (one senior, two ponytail and two pigtail) the Hotshots were the only placing team. The Hotshots ended their season in the Pigtail Division in second place behind the Ft. Shafter "Wipe Outs." The K-Bay "Dingbats" (Ponytail) finished eighth in their division, with their fellow K-Bayite Ponytail team, the "Demons," taking the cellar at ninth place.

K -BA'i - Sailing is lots of fun and by :eking advantage of Special Service s sailing program it won't cost you a bundle.

Sloop rigged Cal-20's, Rhodes-19's and 14-foot Hobie catamarans can be checked out four hours at a time, mornings or afternoons. The cost is nominal and prorated by rank.

Because sailing requires skill and knowledge, boats are only checked out to personnel who are qualified and have a license.

Experienced sailors can 'set up an appointment with Sgt Rick Murphy, boathouse NCOIC, or one of his assistants for a sailing test and a license.

For the novice, sailing lessons by instructors of the Hawaii Sailing Academy are available on weekends. For $25, a handbook on sailing and two four-hour sailing iessons in a Cal-20 are provided. The lessons are spaced a week apart and after ti:e second lesson the average beginner is skilled enough to receive a license fm the Cal-20's.

To check out the Rhodes and Hobies, beginners must also pass a test and have their license stamped for those craft. After the lessons in the Cal-20, the tests should not be too difficult, for the fundamentals are basically the same for all small sailboats,

The sailing lessons begin with the instructor, either Capt Chris Rods tz, of A-Co., 3rd Recon. Bn., or Steve Dunn, a civilians instructor, introducing themselves and meeting each of the four students, who make up a class.,

The lessons are relaxed and informative. Be fore getting underway, the instructors go over the boat asking students to name a variety of parts and explain their purpose.

Before the first lesson, students should read and study their handbook, which will be given to them when signing up for the lessons. For example: jibstay, mainsheet, tiller, fairleads, shrouds and cleats are a few words of the sailor's vocabulary with which the students must become familiar.

Each phase of the lessons are carefully exilsined and demonstrated by the instructors, but the actual task of setting sail and handling the boat is done by tine students.

On the water, each student has a turn as helmsman, taking the tiller and steering the boat through a full range of tacks and jibes. They learn tacking is sailing into the wind and jibing is going with it, and watching threads called "telltales" which are tied to the rigging is the best method of finding wind directions and maintaining a straight course.

During the trip across the hay, instructors point out the various buoys

which mark the esannel and markers which designate co-al heads, where unwary sailors can easly run aground.

During the second lesson, a seat cushion which doubles as a life preserver is thrown overboard for "man overboard" drill, and students take turns steering and "coming about" while another student acting as crewman retrieves the cushion as the boat comes alongside.

During the sessions on the tiller, feeling the power of the boat as it heels and slices through the water, the students begin to understand and appreciate else sport of sailing.

Too soon, the lessons are over and the floating classroom heads for the pier, where the students take turns docking the boat before tying up, taking down and folding the sails and washing down the boat.

But there is always another day with fair winds and a bunch of boats--just waiting--to be taken for a sail.

HERE IS HOW-Capt Chris Rodatz, of A-Co., 3rd Recon Bn., and sailing instructor, explains and demonstrates the use of the tiller on a Cal-20 sailboat to John Redden, a dependent and sailing student.

Thursday will be the last day you can get camp physicals at the K-Bay Dependent's Clinic. The physicals will go at i p.m. See the screening nurse in the clinic the day before the physical is scheduled so she may arrange to have laboratory work done.

If you have a bone to pick, don't do it here K-BAY - Recent discoveries of

human remains aboard the Air Station have prompted action to be taken by officials of the Bishop Museum in Honolulu.

In a letter to the Commanding Officer of the Air Station, officials stress that because of lack of storage space the museum cannot accept any skeletons which are removed by Marine Corps personnel.

The letter reads, "Recently there has been an increase in the number of 1-1 a waiian archaeological burials uncovered at KMCAS. The Bishop Museum has received such burials in the past. However our storage space is limited and must be reserved for collections of scientific use. Because of the manner in which they are disinterred, little if any scientific information is provided with these burials. In the future Bishop Museum cannot accept any skeletons removed

by Marine Corps personnel. "Unless completely necessary for

purposes of construction or safety, graves should not be disturbed." The letter goes on, "If it is necessary to remove the burial, before disturbing the site, please contact the State Archaeology Laboratory, Dr. Steil Newman."

If this is not enough to discourage persons planning to dig for human remains they are warned that it is unlawful aboard the Air Station or any other Federal Reservations.

Previous discoveries of human remains near Pyramid Rock prompted Bishop Museum officials to review Federal laws concerning archaeological excavation on government land. The Federal law prohibits excavation, injuries or removal of archaeological remains (Act of Congress, June 8, 1906).

The law was enacted to prevent

removal of such antiquities by amateur collectors, souvenir seekers, or black market entrepreneurs.

Various parts of skeletons have been found on the Air Station on many occasions.,An explanation on why so many skeletons are found here was yielded in July 1971. At this time a Marine from MACS-2 uncovered a leg bone and a skull near Pyramid Rock. Mr. Pat McCoy, an archaeologist expert from Bishop Museum, stated then that Mokapu Peninsula is the largest unmarked burial site yet to be discovered on the Island of Oahu. The peninsula has yielded more than 350 skeletons since 1939.

Two explanations are advanced for the number of skeletons found here. The remains could be those of warriors fallen in battle. There is historical reference to Kailua and Kaneohe areas being battlegrounds for the Hawaiians.

June 1972 worst month in history WASHINGTON, D.C. - The

American Red Cross box score on June floods in the United States reveals a record of soggy and mangled homes, massive destruction and human misery seldom equalled in the nation's history.

More than 500,000 persons were affected by the disasters, most of them made homeless for a time, as the floods raged through hundreds of communities in 12 states, ranging from Tropical Storm Agnes' path up the East Coast, to Rapid City and the Black Hills area of South Dakota, the San Joaquin River valley in California, the Scottsdale area in Arizona, and numerous towns and villages along flooded rivers in Oregon, Washington and Alaska.

Red Cross surveys show that 110,325 homes were damaged or destroyed in the floods, the majority of them in the hard-hit sections of Pennsylvania, New York's southern tier, and the areas of Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia, inundated by the heavy rains which accompanied Agnes up the Atlantic Coast. Another 5,638 mobile homes were destroyed or badly damaged, and 1,104 farm buildings were lost or damaged, as were 4,986 small businesses, and 621 boats.

In one of the largest disaster relief operations in three decades, thousands of Red Cross volunteers and disaster specialists worked around the clock giving emergency mass care to 384,280 flood victims, housing them in schools, churches and other sturdy buildings on high ground.

Thousands of homeless persons are still being sheltered by the Red Cross in flooded sections of Pennsylvania and New York, and Red Cross officials estimate that over 58,390 flood -affected families

throughout the 12 states will require individual assistance from the organization in replacing c' dhing, household furnishings, obtaining minor home repairs, and in meeting medical and health needs.

Red Cross assistance is given to disaster victims as an outright gift without obligation to repay, and officials say Red Cross will spend more than $15,000,000 in aiding the victims of the June floods. The American Red Cross launched a nationwide disaster fund campaign for $10,000,000 on June 25, and some $6,000,000 has been contributed to date.

Following is a state-by-state record of the June disasters:

Pennsylvania: 69,600 families were affected and suffered loss; 125,000 persons were housed in 210 Red Cross shelters; 256,000 disaster victims and emergency workers were fed and received other forms of mass care; over 31,000 families will need individual Red Cross assistance; homes destroyed totaled 1,782; 34,636 dwellings suffered major damage, and 27,590 had minor damage.

The burial grounds might also have been the final resting place for inhabitants of a once-thriving Hawaiian village on the location now known as Hilltop (senior officers quarters). Visible ruins were recorded as late as 1917.

The discovery last year was

believed to be related to mass burials of plague victims during the 1820's.

Persons who do find artifacts or

suspected remains on the Air Station should leave the find intact and notify the Military Police and the Joint Public Affairs Office. Remember! Leave bones alone!

MCX offers 'deal' OAHU Marines, and their

dependents, who are always quick to latch on to a "good deal" should be eagerly awaiting the 75th anniversary of the Marine Corps Exchange in September.

To mark the occasion local exchanges will hold a Diamond Jubil Anniversary Sale. For two weeks fantastic savings will be availab!e on merchandise obtained by thc ev.Mange system just for this event. Other price reductions and sales promotions are also planned.

The system has come a long way since the first official exchange was

opened in 1897 at Marine Barracks, Boston. That one was signed into being by Theodore Roosevelt, then Acting Secretary of the Navy.

From that one facility with a pitance in volume, the system has grown to 27 exchanges which had over $189 million in total sales last year. However, with this growth exchange officials have never strayed from their primary mission of providing Marines with the articles and services necessary for their health, comfort and convenience. Today as always, the exchange system is searching for new and better ways to serve the needs of their patrons.

Marine's honey keeps him busy

CAMP-SMITH--A successful businessman will often brag about the number of employees he has working for him, but few can match the seven and a half million employees in the part-time business of Sgt Joseph A. Montoya.

by Cpl Steve Hoffman

These employees are the most industrious workers anywhere in the world, and the majority of them are females. If you haven't gotten the gist yet, Sgt Montoya is a bee keeper.

KD course new to shooters K-BAY - Shooters from the

ground units of the 1st Marine Brigade began snapping in on the new "Known Distance" requalification course with M-14 and M46 rifles at K-Bay's Mokapu Rifle Range this week.

Personnel from aviation units and Station will begin firing for requalification on the "B" course next month.

Instead of one week on the rifle range, shooters firing the KD course are now spending two, snapping in the first and firing the second. The "B" :ourse will be completed in two days of firing.

To prepare for this week's shooters, the instructors and coaches spent the last two weeks going through coaches' school and firing the KD course.

Chief Warrant Officer-3 Hayden B. Russell; range officer, said, "The KID course will produce more experts and less nonqualifiers because the course is more conducive to better shooting."

To assist instructors in getting marksmanship principles across to individual shooters, the range detail for the KD course is divided into two groups. During the course of instruction, shooters also fire a 25-yard course to find the battle sights on their weapons.

The new KD course is similar to the "A" course, which Marines fire in recruit training, but was replaced for requalification by the "C" course in 1967. Instead of firing at the center, shooters are once again--taking a six o'clock sight picture-before squeezing the trigger.

by Sgt "Mojo" Ryan

Shooters begin firing the course on the 200 yard line with slow fire from the sitting, kneeling and offhand positions, firing five rounds in five minutes from each position. Rapid fire in the sitting position, 10 rounds in one minute completes the 200 yard firing.

On the 300 yard line, shooters will fire five rounds sitting slow fire in five minutes, and 10 rounds rapid fire in the prone position in one minute.

At 500 yards, a slow fire string of 10 rounds in 10 minutes completes the course.

The "A" target for the 200 and 300 yard slow fire has a 12 inch round bullseye. The "D" target for the rapid fire strings is a silhouette type, which represents the head and upper torso of a person. The target for 500 yards is a larger silhouette type which represents the head and whole torso of a person.

Out of a possible 250 points, shooters must score at least 220 for expert, 210 for sharpshooter and 190 for marksman. Hits in the black or bullseye are worth 5 points and targets have a 4 and 3 ring. Shots outside of the 3 ring but still on the manila paper portion of the target count 2 points.

Russell, range officer, display the three types of targets being used on the new "Known Distance" course, at K-Bay's Mokapu Rifle Range. At 200 and 300 yards, shooters fire slow fire strings at the "A" target on the right and rapid fire at Ike "D" target in the center, and 500 yard slow fire at the target on left.

the company boasts 250 hives on Oahu.

Not only supplying the majority of the local health food stores and bakeries with their own natural honey, they also import honey from the Mainland and circulate bees wax that is used in boutiques and for art supplies.

A hive produces almost 80 gallor a year, bringing the income of Sgt Montoya to approximately $2,000 for 52 weeks' work at 20 hours a week or 1,040 hours a year.

With this, it seems strange that the bee business is actually dying. Sgt Montoya said, "When the trend of today is natural food, the people are letting honey die out."

If you want to watch an interesting display of raw courage and you have a nest of honey bees near your building, give Sgt Montoya a call.

"We're the only ones on the Island who will retrieve bees as a service," he said.

Under your nervous and wary observation, he will don a protective helmet with face net and gloves and walk right into the nest, scoop the bees out of their hive and transfer them to his hive.

He will tell you, "Bees won't hurt you unless you try to hurt them." Meanwhile, he gets stung on the arm and shows no sign of pain.

Once the Queen Bee is in the hive, her workers will follow. All the workers are unfertile female bees and the household rhores and duties belong to the males. Chalk that one up for Women's Lib.

The majority of the bees on the Island are wild and of the Italian strain. Probably they were brought. in years ago.

During the winter season, the bees produce no honey and the queen will produce only enough eggs to keep the hive in operation but when spring arrives, she will lay up to 100 eggs a day,

Sergeant Montoya, with his wife and two sons, has a home in Punaluu. When the "sarge" gets out, he intends to continue his bee business from Punaluu while attending the Church College of Hawaii, working for a major in agriculture.
