Go to Church This Sunday

Chapel Roof Won't Cave In By Chaplain K. M. Loughman

"When we were kids, the entire family went to church every Sunday; but now something has happened. It has been so long since I went to church, I think the roof would fall in if I stepped inside a church."

A young man made that statement grace of God was awakening the man's mind, inspiring him to recognize his true value as a son of God.

OBSERVATIONS- Recommended Reading - Retired Marine Capt. Martin

Boyle has come forth with the Corps' answer to "Bridge on the River Kwai" with his new non-fiction book entitled "Yanks Don't Cry." The volume, just published, tells of 44 months as a

prisoner of the Japanese in WW II. He writes it like a Marine would tell it, no holds barred. At the same time, he rarely philosophizes and at no time are he and his fellow prisoners martyred by the author.

Despite constant starvation and sadism, Author Boyle and his colleagues found ways to harass the enemy and their war effort. In this they found humor and attempted to hold on to their morale.

Capt 3oyle was captured during the surrender of the Ma.

rine garrison at Guam shortly after the war boke out. He NVaS

a corporal (. . "and my sergeant warrant was on the colonel's desk when they blew the building up with bombs.")

Station Librarian Maccine Titus expects to have copies momentarily and the exchange is looking into procuring a hm. ited quantity.

New Directive Spells Out

DOD Policy. on Civil Rights "Equal Opportunity in the

Armed Forces" is the subject of a new Defense Department directive (5120.36) which has been sent to the military serv- ices.

The directive, dated July 26, followed a July 24 memoran- dum sent to President Kenne- dy by Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara.

In his memorandum, Sec- retary McNamara told the President that a directive has been issued explicitly stat- ing DOD policy with respect

ililitary Duties Come First

to off-base discrimination, and requiring: Preparation cf detailed di-

rectives, manuals and regula- tions making clear that leader- ship responsibility is to be discharged.

Institution in each service of a system for regularly mon- itoring and measuring progress in this field.

The policies of the mili- tary departments must meet with the approval of Norman S. Paul, Assistant Secretary of Defense for Manpower.

The directive points out that it is the policy of DOD to con- duct all of its activities in a manner which is free from ra-

all uniformed members and all

If On-Duty Doesn't on ic employees irrespective

K-Bay Marines contemplat- ing off - duty employment should first acquaint them- selves with the provisions con- tained in Station Orders 1050.1C and 5340.1.

The number of questions re ceived and the difficult situa- tions that some Marines find themselves in indicates that many are unaware of Statiol, policies concerning off-duty employment.

Navy and Marine Corps personnel are, in general, not restrained from engag- ing in legitimate and ethical enterprise or work during off-duty hours. However, it must be remem-

bered that personnel are tech- Mcally in a 24-hour duty sta- tus and therefore their mili- tary duties at all titres take precedence of their time, tal- tnts and attention.

Some of the more pertinent restrictions of off-duty employ- ment are that personnel shall not engage in any civilian jobs reflecting discredit upon their service, or for an organization involved in a strike or lockout.

Other taboos are taking jobs with public police forces, as security guards or "bouncers" in public estab- lishments or clubs. Personnel should also re-

member that conducting or soliciting of business aboard the Station is unauthoribed un- less the individual has first received authorization to do so from the CO.

tant Daily Vacation Bible School-308 strong-will stage their closing worship service Thursday at 7 p.m. in Old Mokapu School.

The climax to three weeks of religious schooling will find the children, ranging from 3 years up through high school. putting on an hour's pro- gram of singing and display ing craft work.

K-Bay's Bible School is head .

Signed by Secretary McNa- mara, the directive states:

Every military commander has the responsibility to op- pose discriminatory practices affecting his men and their dependents and to foster equal opportunity for them, not only in areas under his immediate control, but also in near by communities where they may live or gath- er in off-duty hours.

In discharging that respon- sibility a commander shall not, except with prior approval of the Secretary of his military department, use the off-limits sanction in discrimination cas- es arising within the United States.

The directive authorized the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Manpower to establish an Office of Deputy Assistant Sec- retary of Defense (Civil Rights). Mr. Alfred B. Fitt has been named to head the new position. (AFPS)

COMPLETES SYLLABUS - Michael G. Dickerson (in cock- pit), is congratulated by VMF -212 CO, Major G. K. Jackson, following the Lieutenant's first flight in the F8B Crusader jet Monday. Lt. Dickerson holds the distinction of being the first K-Bay pilot to complete the squadron's training syllabus since it was redesignated a fighter squadron last month.

Motorized Turf Trimmers:

Try Shoes - The Toes You

Save Could Be Your Own By GySgt. Jack Paxton

Remember the old pre-jet days when every flight line had a sign warning "beware of propellers"?

If the KMCAS Accident Pre- vention Advisory Board had its way, the same signs would be posted again-this time on every power lawn mower on the Station.

The Board isn't too wor- ried about lawn mowers in the hands of government- hired employees. These folks have a near-perfect safety record - they also have safety shoes.

The remedy? Naturally a safety shoe on every foot is an ideal, albeit expensive, situation. A good, practical way to avoid mishap is to wear a sturdy shoe and exercise extreme caution whenever the mower is in "go" status.

The consequences? Depends on how sharp your mower is.

He's a Marine Infantry Leader by Choice "Military Leadership is the art of influencing and direct-

ing ;nen in such a way as to obtain their obedience, confi- dence, respect and loyal cooperation in order to accomplish the mission."

There are many echelons of leadership within the organi- zational structure of the Ma rine Corps. In terms of unit size. leaders are needed from the fire team to division and Corps level.

Such a leader is First Lieutenant D. K. Shockey Jr., until recently platoon leader of the 3d platoon, B-1/4. Lieutenant Shockey has had

one ambition since. attending Little Rock High School . . .

to be a Marine infantryman. He began his Marine Corps

leadership training program by enlisting in the Marine Re- serve's 92d Rifle Company, Ft. Smith, Ark., in 1958. Upon terminating his enlisted serv- ice on Jan. 27, 1962, he was Marine Corporal Shockey.

While a reservist attending the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, he was enrolled in the Platoon Leaders Class, working toward a Reserve commision. He attended two summer camps at Quantico, in 1959 and again in '61.

He not only attained a commission upon graduation from Basic School in Novem- ber, 1962, but also attained the distinction of being the first graduate to take the two t o p school honors among his class of 415 Ma- rine lieutenants.

He received the Marine Corps Association's award for honor man of the class and the Colonel William B. Lem ly Award for Academic Excel- lence.

He arrived at Kaneohe Bay for duty with the First Marine Brigade in January 1963. It was here that he became what he had desired most-an in- fantry platoon leader.

The day of a platoon leader is often a lengthy one. One of 15 or 16 hours is not un- common when he's building his unit into an efficient, ag- gressive fighting unit.

A typical working day be- gins with physical condition- ing for the platoon, led by the

platoon leader. A rifle inspec- tion generally follows, again under the eye of -the platoon leader.

Before a platoon leader can deliver a lecture on tactics, small arms or any subject to

increase the knowledge of his men, many hours must first be spent in research, lesson plan preparation and rehears- als.

Not all of the day is spent in strict marching, study or calisthentics, however.

A leader of men must re- serve time to know his men. This is done by counseling his troops, knowing their prob-

lems, and aiding in solving them, when possible.

What kind of platoon does he lead?

For one answer, SSgt. Walter Garrett, his platoon sergeant, says: "Well, take about 40 average Marines and you have an average pla- toon.

But when we have a "boss" like Lt. Shockey, a few things rate in the "excellent to out- standing" column.

"Such as being named com- pany honor platoon for three consecutive months; or having 100 percent enrollment in oft- duty education courses."

"The morale of our pla- toon is high. Our men are eager for training, to go to the field. After all, they're infantrymen." Being an infantry leader

was by Lt. Shockey's own choice, not by chance.

As he said: "I wanted in- fantry over any other field be- cause it offers a better chance to develop leadership through- out a career. There are pos- sibly more lucrative or glamor- ous fields, but for me, I'll al- ways want to be an 03."

Asked the ultimate aim of leadership, Lt. Shockey stated: "If in combat, your men wouldn't let you down, and I wouldn't let them down. The way I see it, lead- ership is a two way deal." It's not all work and no play

for a typical platoon leader, though. A work day calls for relaxation. Lt. Shockey re- laxes - when his training schedule permits - at home with wife, Judith Ann, whom he married while in college at the beginning of his Marine Corps service and training.

Lt. Shockey was, until his recent assignment as com- pany executive officer, just one of 27 top infantry platoon leaders currently serving the First Marine Brigade.

FIRST LIEUTENANT DONALD K. SHOCKEY

"Leadership is a Ttro-Way Deal."

"OFFICE HOURS" Not necessarily disciplining troops, but counseling them in their problems or encour- aging off-duty education is a

time-consuming job of a pla- toon commander. Lt. Shockey mainatins an "open door" policy.

RIFLE INSPECTION Frequent inspections of personal equipment keep Lt. Shock. ey's Third Platoon in a constant state of readiness.

OFF DUTY DUTIES After hours activities for Lt. Shockey include pulling the "turntable watch" for son Lamar Kent, 2, as wife, Judith, awaits the music . . . naturally a selection entitled "Marine."

INSTRUCTING OUTDOOR CLASS Litter bearers receive pointers from Lt. Shockey in the proper way of crossing obstacles with a "wounded" platoon member. Before field application of a subject, hours of classroom pres- entation and more hours of preparation were the platoon leader's tasks.
