Puerto Rico Air
Base Developed
By Col. Mint Reed
i Continued from page 1
ployed on special projects, there
are now about 3,000 of them work
ing here.
By August 1, this will be one of
the busiest air fields of any kind
in the world and the world's his
tory. By that date, tl.e greatest alri
transport operation known to man
is scheduled to reach its peak: the
flying of about 50.000 troops month

JOBS VARIED
There are only six Puerto Riean
officers and 46 Puerto Hlcan en
listed men stationed at the base.'
There are several hundred Conti
nental officers and men among the
permanent base personnel. They
are not, says the colonel, "a drop
in the bucket."
This leaves it largely up to the
civilian workers to "run the base."
They do much of the work in the
S'10PS and hangars, operate the
various messes, restaurants and
clubs; run the great PX 'post ex
change!, the laundry, the shoemak
ing and repairing shops, the ice
cream plant, barber shop, and
many more base units.
Colonel Reed, delighted at the
I work the Island civilians are do
ing, says there's no great trick to
it all. He says one must first set
up a long-range plan for the var
ious operations, then establish high
minimum standards, then "exercise
a little patience" in training.
Under such a plan, he says, it
soon develops thai Puerto Rican
workers are as good as those any
where. CRACK SERVICE
As an example,! he colonel called
attention to one of the base's
messes, where 620 persons are
served a given meal in two hours
and a half. The food, ample and de
lirious, Is served "from cocktails to
coffee" by just eight waiters. That
means each serves an average of
77 persons.
A Continental officer is in charge
of the mess but everyone else,
from chef and head waiters on
down, is a Puerto Rican civilian.
In the truly startling PX, which
looks just like a Stateside depart
ment store uf the best type, the
only uniformed employes to be
seen are the soldiers who man the
censoring-mailing counter. An of
ficer, naturally, is in over-all
charge.
FRUITFUL GARDEN
In Borfnjuen's 85-acre garden,
one year old and plainly Colonel
Reed's joy and pride, Puerto Rican
civilians again do the work, and
with very happy results. Already
! the garden fills more than 50 "per
cent of the base needs for fresh
vegetables and fruits.
As soon as 20 more acres ran be
put into production, it is estimat
ed that 100 per cent of this need
will be filled. In some instances
there are and there will be more
surplus commodities to be mar
keted elsewhere. Already, Bonn
quen is thus supplied with fresh
garden produce 365 days a year.
From this plot of ground to hos
pitals, messes and restaurants on
the base go tomatoes, lettuce, cu
cumbers, eggplant, carrots, rad
ishes, sweet corn, watermelons,
bananas, mangoes, papayas, limes,
avocados and several other pro
duce. OFFERS HELP
In the garden's first year of ex
istence 189,909 pounds of vegeta
bles were produced and 2,248 fruit
trees were planted.
The base works with, the Agri
cultural Experiment Station at Ma
yaguez and with the Polytechnic
Institute in planning crops and in
dealing with other gardening prob
lems. Careful records are kept on each
step made, and Colonel Reed says
he will be happy to have anyone
who is interested study these rec
ords, particularly if it will result
ir improving the Island's food
supply.
As a matter of fact, he invites
government leaders, business men
'and others to inspect any non-military
phase of Borinquen life.
"If they want to know how a
store should be run," he said,
"they're welcome to come here and
see oar PX. Or if, for example,
they care to see how restaurants
can be operated efficiently, they're
free to examine ours. Remember,
it's Puerto Rico's own people who
are doing all this work.
'SENDING 'EM' HOME'
Cilonel Seed has a plan which
works in most cases where his ci
vilian employes fall down on their
jobs or grow lazy: He "sends them
home" for a week, or perhaps
more. It is, in effect, a suspen
sion. "Usually," he explains, "after
the persons has sat at home a little
while, thinking about the good
food and nice bathrooms and other
comforts and conveniences he's
missing, he's glad to come back
and straighten up."
Most of the civilians come from
territory close to the field
Annrnvifnktalu 1 OifcO . if t tii.ni 11 ri
.. ,h-1. ' Ulv, ,,
- -. ... . . . . . . .. .... ...
5,000-acre base,' this being a high
ly unusual concession for an Army
post to make. Besides having ex
cellent accommodations, which in
clude electric refrigerators, and
stoves, the civilians have their own
,..,.ir.wt with
Hons, the base personnel has a
cess to varied forms of amusement;
clubs for everybody, an 18-hole
golf course, mavie theatres, and
courts or fields for many sports.
Because of the nature of Borin
quen Field, where hundreds are
working, arriving or departing al
all hours of the day and night,
most sports fields are electrically
lighted and play can go on any
time.
IDEAL LOCATION
Borinquen is to be a permanent
air base. Colonel Reed says, and
all plans are made with that idea
in mind. The officer is a strong
booster of Puerto Rico's weather,
which along with the Island's lo
cation, whs responsible for a H-29
training program hnving been
brought to Borinquen some time
ago.
"This is the only place I know
of," says the base commander,
"where you can set a flying sched
ule for. say three months, and at
the end of that time have it come
out right on the nose. In the States
you fall far behind in the winter
and then get an overage of flying
time in the summer."
In commenting on the value of
the field as a base for training
crews to fly long distances over
water, he says:
ISLANDS EVERYWHERE
"If you want to train men to My
to an island 500 miles away and
return, without passing over land
well, you can do it from here. If
you want an island 1.000 miles
away for this purpose, you'll find
it, too.
"If you want to send them non
stop thousands of miles, there's
the ocean."
Other than being used as the
B-29 training base, Rorinqiien
serves as the base for aircraft in
the Caribbean area, is a supply and
storage base, is a depot and over
haul point, and is a shuttle point
for large numbers of men.

In Memoriam
Dedicated to Mr and Mrs
George Gibson
I recall so many times
As I'd pass by your front door,
I'd look up at those blue stars
And I'd count them: there were
four.
Now in passing by I see
There are ohly one, two, three
One of them has turned to gold,
For that soldier brave and boid
In humble prayer, down on yoiu
knees:
"God bless my boys across the
seas."
I stood and listened and heard you
say,
"Please bring my boys home
again some day."
Our precious Saviour knows the
best.
Your darling son has gone to
rest.
He was a soldier, brave and true,
And died for his country, too.
il
God bless every precious mother
Who has lost a precious son.
You will see them some glad morn
ing. When your work on earth is
done.
The glittering stars are shining
brightly;
Wild flowers bloom and ' fade
away.
Your darling boy is only sleeping
UntU the Resurrection- Day.
