THE SENTINEL L' COMPANY B HISTORY FRANCIS P. KANE WE'RE THE HEROES OF THE NIGHT We were a good gang in BU Company! Even after the docs got through weeding us out by the look, listen, leak and laboratory process we were forty men over our authorized number. And right from the start the outfit was so popular that the skipper couldn't get volunteers to fill up some other company's quota. Kelly Cof the Kelly and Dunne team-as famous as ham and eggs, up and down, etc.j even told the Captain that he'd 'sooner go home than leave BH Company and Sars Dunne. However, the divorces were finally selected and the reduction accomplished in time to avoid casualities thru over- crowding. A We began byllearning the main points of the compass and squads east and west before the ordnance department would loosen up on the rifies in which some of us were mostly interested. And then they made us learn to spell all over again Chad us line up alphabet- ically without calling the roll more than oncej to qualify for rifie cleaning. The auto mechanics did pretty well, but the bookworms had a h- of a time with the cosmoline. And one earnest genius on K. P. nearly spoiled the taste of the beans by trying to roast the grease out of his rifle in the oven. Down at 26 Orr Street the tent was full of bolts, firing pins, etc., with grease ad lib, on Hoor, bunks, blankets and baggage, until Cohen, Rest and Koeing got all the rilies assembled agai11-dean. All the other tents on the street shared the same frenzy, but it was all worthwhile because we learned how to keep those riiies ready for inspection forever after, so the oliicers could hold their peace. About the time we began to handle our rifles in close order drill like military arms instead of civilian fowling pieces, the brass hats said, Now, B Company, that's fine-but it's pretty much all discipline and display. You're so good on discipline and so rotten on display that we're going to teach you how to winthe next war. Hold your arms like fowling pieces again, and play Indian. So we were introduced during part of each day to extended order, scouting and patrolling and some of the tricks of the trade. To be or not to ben was soon the question of the day. Under Lieut. Keeler's able guidance errors were reduced until we could boast of some real proficiency in making use of cover. NVe were issued packs and learned of an overnight hike we were to take to Great Lakes Training Station. That night after Lights Out had sounded some tent disregarded the order. Suddenly: Voice from the Company Street- Put that light out. Voice from Tent-4 'What for? V. F. C. S.-- Because it's a rule on a military reservationf' V. F. T. Csarcasticallyj- Who the hell are you?,' V. F. C. S.- 'I,m Capt. McKee KO. DJ. Light goes out immediately and silence reigns. -The morning set for our march dawned and with packs slung we started out. Many packs looked like barrack bags, not that it mattered for we were having a whale of a good time. Songs came fast and while tunes may have been lacking volume was not. Even' in the best of armies a crack like this could be expected. NVhat a wonderful pack a length of stovepipe would make. Because the Blue men seemed to be enjoying themselves the doughboys' traditional ingenuity stood us in good stead and soon the air was filled with, The Blue men have to carry packs, Parlez-vousn. Mile after mile was quickly covered and soon we were marching through the gates of the Navy Reservation. Arriving at our assigned area packs were unslung and tents pitched. Jansen walking around, asking everybody, Got anybody to sleep with ? He was odd man in the Company and it takes two men to put up a pup tent. The medical ofiicers started puncturing blisters but to the credit of B Company only one man had to ride back to camp.
