CAMP MACKALl CHANGES FROM GHOST TO BUSY POST OF 2000 In less than' one month Camp Mackall, North Carolina, located 15 miles south of Southern Pines alogn U. S. No. 1 has been trans formed from an abandoned ghost camp—a relic of World War II— into a bustling Army post already housing more than 2,000 troops. These men have arrived from all over the Eastern United States to participate in the Joint Army- Air Force training ' Exercise SOUTHERN PINE durng August. During this short period, a well stocked post exchange, together with an open air tavern has been put into operation, the theatre has been repaired and now is handling first run films, and the service dub is ready to reopen after ex tensive reconstruction. One end of Big Muddy Lake has been cleared for swimming, life guards have been appointed and atetndance is high; Work on these and other more technical projects such as roads, plumbing, lighting and communi cations was in,large measure ac complished by units attached to the Aggressor Service Command, headed by Colonel Donald P. Wy lie, of Patterson, New Jersey. Camp Mackall is Aggressor Headquarters for the Maneuver, and the Aggressor Service Com mand, or AGSCOM, is the agency which will coordinate , the acti- The maximum length of buses having three axles has been in creased from 35 to 40 feet. vities ol the service troops requir ed by the Aggressor tactical forces. Officers and men of this Headquarters are from Major General Crump Garvin’s! 301st Logistical Command, previously located at Camp Rucker, Alabama. Rehabilitation of Camip Mackall is alresidy more complete than it was .for any., of the previous man euvers since the end of World War II. While PX sales began in a tent three hours after the first troops had arrived here, within a week the Exchange had moved to a permanent building and men from the 50th Medical Clearing Comipany had begun work on the outdoor tavern, priority project of Captain .Frank L. Mullen of Mon roe, Louisiana, Army Exchange Officer. Theatre seats were requisition ed from another post and for the first, time since early last year a full length Hollywood film was shown indoors when the theatre had its grand opening the evening of June 20th. Performers from the 300th Special Service Comp any provided live entertainment at the opening, master of cere monies at which was Master Ser geant Richard T. Nolan., theatre manager. One of the busiest units in the rehabilitation was C Company of the 969th Engineer Construction Battalion, also in from Camp Rucker, and commanded by Cap tain John F. Williams. The 969th is responsible for the quick work on the theatre, the service dub, and the lake area, as weU as many important but more routine pro-' jects, among them road repair, installation of refrigeration fac ilities and sign painting. Among units already phased in are outfits representing the Signal, Quartermaster, Ordnance, Adjut ant General, Military Police and Transportation Corps besides those already -mentioned. Each unit has had its part Lin helping to make Camp - Mackall the reju venated installation it is today. The purpose of Aggressor is to add realism to the maneuver. The objective of Exercise Southern Pine will be to drive the “invad ers” out of the Carolinas. Aggres sor units will, of coursd; be made up of United States troops wear ing distinctive green uniforms, crested helmets and their own peculiar insignia. Aggressor tactical units have already begun arriving at Camp Mgckall and are taking full ad vantage of the excellent facilities they are finding there. 43 Increased yields from hybrid com are enough to provide an extra 35 pounds of pork for every man, woman and child in the United States.
