Camp Lejeune, North Carolina,
Jan. 2S.-The word training when
applied to boot" camp is a mis-
nomer. Processing, mental, ply
sical and chemical, would be more
accurate.
After a trip on a troop train
than which there is no whicher-
with more than a score of other
young women from Arizona and
Southern California, we arrived at
Camp Lejeune with a generous
share of soil from each of the
states we had passed through and
a thorough busting of SCOT.
We were met by our company
commander, Second Lieutenant
Mary Bohlin of Washington, d. c.
A tall. striking young blonde, she
proved to be the kind of officer
which skeptics had said could
never be developed in a women's
branch of the service In other
words, she is a Marine.
KNOCK it off, was her first or
der.
Thrilled and eager to comply,
we threw our baggage off the
train.
This wasn't what she meant,

Editors Note: When the U. S.
Marine Corps Women's Reserve
observes its first anniversary Feb
ruary 13, many Arizona young
women will be helping the battling
leathernecks uphold the tradition
of being "first to fight for right
and freedom" They're the wom-

over duties here at home to free
fighting men for combat duty.

Sergeant Emily Schultz of New
Hampshire told us to get our giz-
mos from the rack and fall in. A
moment of hesitation, and we de-
termined that gizmo referred to
our hats.
Later, at chow, someone re-
quested '"pass the gizmo." Why
the hat should be passed at this
point was not quite clear. Then

| that this was what she meant
Not completely satisfied, we en-
countered another giZmo a short
time later in class. This time 1t
was a pencil.
Mystified as we were, things did
not become any clearer when the
drill sergeant referred to all of us
as "a bunch of gizmos" when we
got out of step.
We were sure he didn't mean we
were a bunch of hats. pencils OF
| butter No we weren't sure. Al
this point we were not sure Of any
thing.
Our corporal, Dorothy Cotella OF
San Francisco, grinned and ex
planned that there were gizmos
everywhere.
We eat them, sleep in them
wear them, talk to them, salute
them-ad infinitum.
Gizmo is the most versatile
word in the Marine language. With
it the Marine need never hesitate
for a word.
1t covers even more territory
than the civilian thingamajig

Gizmo is a very important word
and should never be underrated

Upon arising there is the detail

The corps uses more disinfect-
ant probably than any other COM
modify. In fact a germ would
have to have an Identification
card to pass the main gate of the
post.
Once this is over, all that re-
mains to be done is washing the
window next to each bunk, being
sure to give full attention to each
slat in the venetian blinds, wash
ing the locker box, sweeping and
swabbing the deck, shining shoes

we were informed without delay.
The intelligence knock it off" can
mean anything from the mild ga
little less noise, please" to the
not-so mild "shut up," Our male
drill instructors, whom we were
to encounter later, always made
themselves clear as to which was
intended.
AS we were taken through the
camp in busses we were impress
ed by the tremendous size and
scope of the base
1t is difficult to try to set down
my first thoughts when we pass
ed thousands of Marines drilling,
saw the parachute training tow
ers, first heard the pumping of
anti-aircraft guns and the deep
roar of distant field pieces.
The buildings throughout are
two story brick in setting of
acres of clipped lawn and neat
sidewalks. Later we learned who
kept them that way.
Staggering along under our bag
gage, which we had been told we
might possibly have to carry, we
were taken first to chow.
Here we found quantity and
quality. 1t was excellent.
Next we were billeted-the pro
cess of being assigned a bunk, the
most highly-valued commodity in
camp. We were to spend most of
our leisure time here, so there is
not much | can recall to tell about
it. REST" is always in quotes in
the Marine Corps.
After chow we began the relay
race of classes, drill traditions,
songs, jargon and discipline, which
is "boot" camp.
We were in a land of ladders,
decks, bulkheads, matches, sacks
and scuttlebutt.
1t didn't take us long to learn
that floors are decks, stairs are
ladders, walls are bulkheads,
doors are matches, sacks are beds
and scuttlebutt-the source of
most of our information-is rum

We thought Marine terminology
was simple until we came to the

not seem to be anyones fault. So
we take our showers with mingled
emotions as well as temperatures.
Then there is the matter of pow
er. Sometimes one doesn't notice
taking shower at all, because the
fine spray mists down like dew.
There are others, however,
which make up for this deficiency,
and | wouldn't advise anyone but
an experienced swimmer to med
die with these.
The few minutes after the ply
sical education class are so active
that the class itself might well be
dispensed with.
At this time we must change

Special details polish the brass
and so on.
We always have at least a half
hour in which to accomplish this
and our dressing. We have to
come out looking as neat as the
gals on the recruiting posters, too.
Sometimes we even have time to
go outside and police the grounds.
Policing the grounds means pick
ing up everything except the earth
and the grass in a given area.
All necessary equipment is pro-
vided for these duties. There is
