Army Guard Intensifies
Special Forces Training
Maturity—Motivation—Mili
tary. 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

The Rise of Secularism
ON FEBRUARY 17, 196* Dr.
Billy Graham warned our Na
tion that “there is . movement
gathering momentum in Amer
ica to take the raditional con
cept of God out of our national
life.” !
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.

members were called into active state service for duty or recon

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.

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.”
