af f . if 1-sf ft Glass flisfvry On january 23, 1939, lll timid rookies enlisted together as an army of ununiformed men cmd women to start their basic training at Camp Commerce, S. E. 26th and Powell Boulevard. Unacquainted with camp rules and regulations, these new recruits were thersubject of much embarrassment and confusion-a veritable awkward squad. At the first roll call, the com- mander reported that 41 were Portlandersy 15 were born in states west of the Rocky Mountains: one in Canada, and one in Alaska. Some found the camp discipline too strict and transferred to other camps. Later, reinforcements discovered the advantages of our training and joined forces with us. Then, just after a long awaited furlough, we received a communique from General Head- quarters telling us that we had earned our Freshman stripes. We again went into action and gained considerable ground in the bombardment of home work of the Sophomore Division. Drilling did not take all our time, however. During our leisure moments we took active part in clubs and athletics. We also won several inter-class track meets. Later when we were promoted to the junior Brigade, we became officers of clubs and non- coms in athletics. More maneuvers: we hacked our way within striking distance of our goal and finally gained a solid foot-hold on our objective. Fifty-three are generals in the stenographic field, 16 have special technical training in bookkeeping and 10 are even better prepared to lead in both stenographic and bookkeeping fields, while three are doubly prepared for clerical work. Thirty answered roll call promptly and three were always present and on time for all activities. New positions were assigned to 31 in different fields throughout the city, and 12 plan to attend officers' training school for further instructions in their chosen field. Fourteen were awarded medals of honor for outstanding ability in their assigned duties. Now, the battle is over. As we pack our duffle bags to leave Camp Commerce, we regret- fully haul down our Senior flag which has flown proudly for the past year. No bugle will sound retreat: taps will not be heard: instead the call to arms will roll out. The unshed tears, the catch in our throats atthe thought of leaving camp gives way to clear eyes and squared jaws in preparation of what is to come. We are equipped and fully fortified to join the ranks of those who have gone before us and leave camp to the competent leaders of the division to follow. K.
