Henry C. Merritt, The unit left , Warsaw at ; 11:50 p. m. August 15th and arrived at Fort McClellan, Ala in time for an 8:00 o'clock breakfast Monday morning. The first week was spent on the various ranges of the camp (Ml rifle, 30 cal. Machine gun, 81MM Mortar, and 75MM Recoiless Rifle). "M" Company had 100 gualifica tion of its men on all ranges ex cept the Ml Rifle range. The weekend was highlighted by the arriva) of Billy Graham, noted evangelist, and his service held on Saturday night. Estimated attend ance of this meeting was over twenty thousand. Lt. H. C. Allen taught a Sunday School lesson the following morning which was so well attended by the men from Company "M" that the Regimental Chapalin commented on it during his regular Sunday morning ser vice. The men of the 30th Division moved into the field to spend their second week. Pup tents were set up, field kitchens erected, and la trines dug Monday morning. In the afternoon a demonstration of tanks and infantry in the attack was presented to the division by its own components. During this summer camp some thirty odd members of the North Carolina Senate and House accepted invitations to visit the Division dur ing its stay in the field -and observe first hand Just what the National Guard was accomplishing. Company "M" was very fortunate in having as its guest Rep. Carl V. Venters eating breakfast and dinner with the men before being flown back to North Carolina by the Air Na tional Guard. All of these men ex pressed their amazement at the state of training the Guard has achieved with its limited drill schedule. The following two days were uti lized by "M" Co. to run Platoon oroblems prepared by the platoon leaders, Lt. H. C. Allen Machine gun, It. George C. Kornegay 81MM Mortar, Lt. Raymond Rivanbark 75MM Rifle. These problems were so well prepared and executed that Company "M" won the Batallion training award as having the best training within the Batallion dur ing the 1954 encampment The remaining days were spent preparing to return home. Beds and mattresses had to be turned in, buildings scrubbed, windows wash ed, areas policed, but finally train time arrived and the company was loaded and returned to home sta tion .safely. .Warsaw has reason to be proud of her men for no other company in the third Batallion can boast of their record over the " past four years. With Captain Henry C, "Mer ritt commanding during this period Company "M" has compiled a rec ord of three Superior ratings and one Excellent They have never been TVted as merely Satisfactory. Young men who join the National Guard before they are 18Vi years of age cannot be drafted. Corrapany "M" now has room for several men who wish to serve their country and help to KEEP TOUR GUARD UP. fire Department tjels Resuscitator tV ' .Recently the Kenansville Fire De partment received an Emerson Res uscitator This la one of the most valuable pieces of life saving equip ment that a rescue squad can have.
