These are the three M’s the U.S. Army Special Forces soldier is chosen by and which are drilled into him throughout the long months of his training. Anc with the new emphasis on this vital mission the Army Nationa' Guard has once again met the i challenge of modem warfare by adding its own top-flight citi zen-soldier Spe cial Forces units to the ranks of this elite group. The Army Na tional Guard now has Special Forces units in six states, all of which have in tensified their training and in- Gen. Greenlief creased their manpower over the last year. One word can characterize the men of the Army National Guard Spe cial Forces organizations from Alabama, Louisiana, North Car olina, Utah, Rhode Island, and West Virginia—dedication. At first, it may seem difficult to conceive how so difficult a mis sion, requiring such highly trained and versatile personnel could be performed by these part- time soldiers who can only spend weekends at their training. Ac cording to Brigadier General Francis S. Greenlief, Assistant Chief for Army, National Guard Bureau, the answer to this is that the average National Guards man, “realizes he has more than a weekend commitment and gives it gladly. These men, the cream of the crop, dedicate themselves to the sacrifices of time and tal ent necessary for them to become crack Special Forces troops”. They are athletes, professional men, salesmen—from all walks of life—but with a few things in common. They all love the out doors. They are individualistic, mature, self-sufficient—a mix ture of their traditional ances tors, the colonial or frontier militiaman and the best of the modem military man. For example, in November of this year 150 Louisiana National Guardsmen of the 21st Special Forces Group, spent an inclement Saturday afternoon parachuting from three C-119s just north of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, in order to maintain their parachute pro ficiency. Special Forces troop? being airborne qualified is one of the first requirements of Special Forces training. For two weeks last summer Special Forces troops, members of the 16th Special Forces Group of the West Virginia National Guard, carried out a realistic war game in the rugged mountains and wooded slopes that make West Virginia the “little Switz erland of America”. Attached to the airborne infiltrators were six bands of “civilians” made up of 168 Maryland National Guards men who had volunteered to live off the land and to learn the hit- and-run tactics of guerrillas as FIGHTING UNIT—raid he looks it! An Army National Guard Spe cial Forces trooper is rigged for combat as he checks out heavy load of equipment before boarding an airplane for a practice jump. Like Active Army counterparts, Army Guard SF Troopers train in “un conventional” warfare techniques. taught by the “green berets” of West Virginia. The six bands roamed through sections of a 200-square mile area around Camp Dawson, West Virginia, during “Operation Dare”, striking with sudden and devastating swiftness at enemy installations and troops. When they were not harassing aggres sor forces, the guerrillas spent lours in their forest classrooms earning about weapons, demoli tions, communications and other skills essential for survival in enemy-held territory. Just how ragged was this braining? “Too rugged for me,” said Jimmie Orr, pro football player with the Baltimore Colts, after he returned to “civilization” with his Maryland Guard unit. Most of the Guardsmen, mem bers of Alabama’s 20th Special Forces Group, joined the 19th Special Forces Group of the Utah Army National Guard last sum mer. Those who were not with them were at various training schools, such as the U.S. Naval Amphibious Base, San Diego, California, for specialized train ing in amphibious techniques and underwater reconnaissance and demolition. These are just a few of the activities of these men in their efforts to ready themselves for any and every type of warfare i The housewife who doesn’t like to decorate the Christmas evergreen tree too soon before Christmas Eve can still achieve a holiday atmosphere by set ting up a hospitality tree several days before the holiday.

SINCE THAT TIME we have witnessed a steady advance of progress being made in this country by the forces of secu larism, those who would take God out of our national life. The most notable victory for the secularists came on June 25, 1962, when the U. S. Supreme Court ruled out a non-com puls- . ory Now York school prayer which merely acknowledged de- ’ pendence upon Almighty God and requested His blessings on the chHdrea, their teachers, and their country. The prayer was , found to be an attempt to estab- : lish a religion in conflict with < the 1st Amendment to the Con- ! stitutlon, which provides that | “Congreee shall make no law re- ] specting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free I exercise thereof.” MILLIONS OF AMERICANS protested the decision, and for a while it appeared that the Con- , gress would be forced to over- ! rule the decision, even if it meant amending the Constitu- • tion. The forces of secularism were quick, however, to counter the mass of public opposition through the propaganda devices of the so-called liberal news media and also with the bless ings of many national leaders who hailed the decision as a vic tory for religious freedom. It was a victory of sorts for free dom, but a victory for freedom from religion rather than free dom of religion. SINCE THAT DECISION, the secularists have scored new gains in their fight to eradicate oublic recognition of a Supreme Being. The singing of Christmas carols has been ended in some schools. During the past Christ mas season, a group of secu larists in New England were able to pressure some school principals into abolishing the Christmas tree from their schoolrooms. On January 5. 1963, two Protestant leaders, in an ar ticle in THE WASHINGTON POST, called for acceptance of the establishment in America of a new religion, which they called “Secularism.” Dr. Martin Marty (Not vrtntsd mt aovomm.nl ooponoo) called secularism “the fastest growing group in America.” NOW PENDING before the U. S. Supreme Court are two cases which could give the se cularists. their greatest victory to date. Both are concerned with the right of a local school to permit its students to engage, without any compulsion, in the recitation of the Lord’s Prayer and Bible reading in opening exercises. One case is from Maryland and the other is from Pennsylvania. Many other States permit their schools to have such exercises, including ”outh Caro lina, where most schools have a similar program. THE PRINCIPAL argument being made by the secularists to that their liberty is being com promised. Many of the same people who have done the meat to destroy liberty in this coon- try through support of centrali sation of power and softness to ward the enemy are the moot vocal in defense of absolute lib erty to, some areas. For instanee, we are told that academic free dom to fostered when we permit communism to be taught in some of oar institutions and also when communists are invited to lec ture on the camposes of Amer ica. Now we are being told that we mast remove acknowledge ment of God from our national life in order to appease secular ists or atheists, who are not required to participate in these public school acknowledgements^ These arguments overlook the important truth that, as our Constitution and other import ant national documents state, we derive our blessings of i'osrty from God, whether we call Him by the term Jehovah, God, or Divine Providence. When we scratch the Giver and Provider of our liberties from our nation al life, we imperil those remain ing vestiges of liberty and turn our nation to secularism or even national atheism—as is required in communist societies today. I AM REPULSED by the false notion that we should destroy the pillars on which our libertieu rest in order to advance some cause in the name of liberty. Such actions constitute a fraud and sham not only on God, but also on liberty itself and the people of America. Sincerely, "tfijULftsvYSArilJ. On the Home Scene Guard Helps Neighbors When Disaster Strikes A •wide variety of frequently little-known services are per formed by National Guard units in times of crisis in their own home communities. • Valiant rescue efforts were made by members of the Army and Air National Guard when that ill-fated chartered airliner carry ing Army recruits crashed near Richmond, Virginia, killing 77 passengers and crewmen. The 149th Tactical Fighter Squadron of Richmond sent the first and only heavy emergency equipment to reach the scene. Armored personnel carriers and jeeps of the 183rd Reconnaissance Squadron of Virginia’s Army National Guard cut paths through the rugged terrain surrounding tho scene so that this equipment could be moved in there. Once there, the men of the fighter squadron, wearing asbestos suits and hoods, waded into the fiery wreck to fight the fire and seek survivors. The men of the Guard also assisted in other ways such as search ing the area for survivors and cordoning off the scene in order to keep spectators away. WWW To July, 1961, a flash flood hit Ch^ ’'>ston, West VIrgfnfa, kill ing 22 people and injuring over 1600. The flood caused ^ver $6,000,000 in property damage.

Unit alert plans went into full operation as members were called into active state service for duty or recon naissance patrols relief crews. Members of the 150th Armored Cavalry were placed on around- the-clock duty working 12 hours or. ana 12 hours off. Members of the 130th Troop Carrier Squadron of the Air National Guard volunteered to help •without pay. As work progressed they found that the equipment they had was insufficient to cope with the situation and sent out a call for additional apparatus. Within a few hours equipment and tech- from all over the state were pouring into t nical teams: rver the state were pouring into the stricken city. Reconnaissance teams scouted the area lor people in need and security units sealed it off and protected'it from looters. All told, it was the largest and most complex operation in West Virginia in more than three decades. WWW In mid-winter of 1962 a big snow storm hit the New Mexico mountains at the opening of the deer season trapping some 500 hunters. The snow piled up to three feet with as much as ten-foot drifts in some places. The Army National Guard from six towns cooperating with the State Police in the area began immediate rescue efforts which ended in bringing every hunter hack alive and well. Using only wheeled vehicles, the Guardsmen cleared paths in the snow to reach remote areas and also, cleared- existing roads so that the hunters could drive their cars out. They carried food to hunters who had taken refuge in the isolated ranches. As tho Eddy County Sheriff put it. “the rescue of many would have been impossible without the National Guard.” WWW When a million dollar fire burned El Centro, California’s Bar bara Worth Hotel to the ground, members of Company B, 40th Ordnance Battalion, were at hand to control the huge crowd which turned out to watch the blaze and guard adjoining build ings against looters.
