GEN MULCAHY ON INSPECTION Training designed to enable Marine aviation personnel to meet the Jap in hand-to-hand combat was inspected last week by MajGen Francis P. Mulcahy, new comdgGen of MarFairWest. Gen Mulcahy, accompanied by his flying aide de camp, Capt. N. E . Thompson, Lubbock, Texas, witnessed pilots & ground crewmen from El Toro undergo the rugged TC PhsyTrngS routine.

helmet strapped under the chin has been exploded by Ca pt E dwin (Dutch) Smith , fam ous Olympic champ of TC PhsyTrngS. Prompted by curiosity over the bugaboo about wea r ing a helmet for the jump, Ca pt Smith & the season ed combat swimming instructors at the tra ining tanks und ertook experimental jumps from the edge of the 12 Area tank. Suffering no injury, the men then leaped from the 15-ft tower without injury, so progressed to the 20-J"t & 33-ft towers, making leaps without injury. The test jumps by Capt Smitii were followed by similar leaps by instructors, none of whom suffered any injury. Now, as stardard practice, combat swimming classes are making the jump with full dungarees, helmet & 2 flotation bladders on the day before qualification. Capt Smith, whose h ome is in LA, was led to jump with helmet after he had satisfied another curiosity; namely, the theory that a man with full marching order could not abandon ship safely while wearing a Kapok life jacket. With it proved by test jumps that a man in combat outfit can make a safe abandon ship jump while wearL-ig the Kapok device, a ttention next was devoted to exploding the helmet bugaboo.

By Pfc. Marion 0. Milton "I got out while I still had some of my brains left". That was the statement made by Pfc Billy Celebron, former pro boxer who slugged it out with many of the ring's toughest boys. Celebron, attached to the T3Sec Maintenance Crew, was working on the new obstacle course the other day. He was making little weeds out of the big ones as he waved his sheath knife back & forth . Putting his knife aside, Billy spent a few moments going over his fistic career, & a colorful one he had, too. Born in Venice, Italy, the city of canals, 33 years ago, Celebron deserted his home land long before Mussolini began waving his fascist arm over the natives. Celebron, of course, didn't find the streets of US lined with gold on arrival, & he set out to make his own little nest egg the hard way. Settling in Rockford, Ill, Celebron attended the St. Anthony Hi School as a youth. He loved to fight, & that explains why he selected the Corps for his branch of the military service. Gold Is Where You Find It In 1932, a t the age of 21, Celebron realized that "Thar was Gold " in those boxing rings providing you knew how to use the dukes. During that year, Celebron laced on his 1st pair of boxing gloves. He entered the Golden Gloves tournament · at Chicago & was runner-up for the welterweight Pfc. Milton crown. The following year, Celebron polished off the rough spots & captured the GG's welter crown at Chicago & the National AAU diadem at Boston. The road to success was now in view. With a record of 192 victories out of approximately 20? amateur of Celebron's victiins, & when matches, Celebron decided that you can knock over guys like the time was ripe to get in & Zivic, brother you have something pitch for the dough.

CAMPEN 9 ENDS. NAVY STREAK By Pfc MOM San Diego's NavTrng· Center team was rolling a long its merry wa y. Every team that dared step out on the diamond against the sailors had its ears pinned back good & proper. Since the opening of the baseball season the Naval squad had humiliated foe after foe until the victory column showed 26 consecutive triumphs without a defeat. On Sun21May,, CamPen's 5thMarDiv team traveled to San Diego to seek revenge for an earlier 19-5 insult handed the Marines by t hese sailors. After the smoke of the battle cleared & the 5coreboard was visible, the figures were hung up ~howing 7 runs for CamPen against 5 for the Naval squad . . The Gyrenes had scored another 1st, the 1st to accomplish the mission they had started out to do-end that victory streak. Trailing 5-3 in the 9th, it looked like 27 in a row for the Navy men. Then things began to happen. 2 men walked & l stLt And y Chlebeck drove 1 in with a double, bringing the tally to 5-4. With 2 away & 1 more out needed for a Navy triumph, hardhitting Sgt Chas (Heine) Mueller was purposely passed, filling the sacks. Sgt Stephen Duplinsky came strolling to the plate waving his big bat. He promptly lashed out a terrific triple to clean the bases & assure CamPen of game. Besides his double in the 9th, Chlebeck also walloped out a triple & single & stole home to share top laurels with Duplinsky. The 5thMarDiv club has 4 games on tap this week, meeting the Linda Vista Aviation 9 on the CamPen diamond on Wed31May at 1500. Thur 1 June CamPen goes to NavField, San Diego, to clash with Ft Rosecrans at 1400. Over the week-end, 3&4 June, Port Hueneme will visit CamPen for games starting at 1400. Following are recent scores of the 5th Div team:

During the past week, some 40 WRs visited the Boat Basin & had rides in landing craft & amphibtracs. Earlier, 5 WRs visited the infiltration range & watched a 5tlo Div outfit run the course under fire. Witnesse<; of the latter eve·i were Pfcs Mary Daughaday, Mildred Cheek, Margaret Downing, Eva Carr, Doris Henry. The WRs expressed appreciation at the opportunity to observe the type of · training undergone by the men they freed to fight when they enlisted. These occasions are instruc & exciting, they declared.

Pillboxes, identical to those in SoPac battle theaters, have been constructed for training purposes by TCEngBn experts at the miniature Tarawa mockup in the DeLuz Creek area. The project, part of a program to train beach assault troops, is the first at CamPen & believed to be the 1st at any MarCorps Lase. Utilizing the natural terrain for concealment, 3 pillbox fortifications have .been constructed & camouflaged with materials foraged from the surroundinelandscape. Diversification of materials used in the construction was strel"sed in building of log, another of cement, the 3d cf sand bags.
