Aerial Spraying Helps Control Channel Brush LTJG SIMPSON Simpson Wins Medal In Vietnam Lieutenant (junior grade) Wil- ford A. Simpson, USNR, ofCross Hill recently was awarded the Navy Achievement Medal with Combat “V” for service in Viet nam. He was Bunker Commander at tached to Helicopter AttackSqua- dron Three at Vinh Long from Jan. 31 to Feb. 6, 1968. He re mained at his bunker on Vinh Long Army airfield as three Communist battalions surround ed and held the area under con stant attack. Simpson protected parked air craft and covered transiting flights. He shared rations with 160 refugees evacuated from a near by convent. Simpson is now a flight in structor at Whiting Field in Pen sacola, Fla. My Neighbors Aerial spraying for brush con trol proved successful in the Dun can Creek Watershed area. A recent inspection of watershed channels and floodwater retard ing structures reveals that aer ial spraying for brush control is one way of getting the job done. More than 3 miles of stream channels and about 2-1/2 miles of shoreline around two lakes were sprayed in July by South Carolina Helicopter, Inc., of Sa luda. The chemical used for brush control consisted of a special mixture of 2, 4-D - 2,4,5-T in a heavy jelly-like substance that prevented drift Brush control on improved stream channels is essential if the improved channel carrying capacity is to be maintained. The Watershed Conservation District assumes the mainten ance responsibility tefore the contracts for channel improve ment or dam construction are ap proved. The picture l>elow shows a por tion of the stream channel im provement work on Sand Creek which was completed in 1966. The purpose of the brush con trol is to keep brush from grow ing back and again reduce the water carrying capacity f the channel. fei‘i '4 l3x#lsLiL» J jt. j “Guess you’ll just have to face it, dad—I’m no child prodigy . . .” Browning Heads Greenwood Mills Selling House GREENWOOD - Cecil 0.
