Major Lloyd 7. Mapes, US Army
Advisor to the 3rd Battle Group,
297th. Infantry, Alaska National
Guard, delivered short talk to the
Kodiak Rotary Club on Novem-
Der 22nd
Major Mapes stated very plain
ly the almost certain fact that Kodi-
ak is in danger of losing its Nation
al Guard Unit because it has sunk
to a low of "a members. Between
so to 60 men are needed to warrant
keeping a unit in Kodiak he said.
Our very existance as a nation
depends upon our ability to de-
fend ourselves" The major con-
tinued by saying that the Minute
Men of yesterday have lost none of
their Importance in the face of
world in crisis. The need for an
adequate defense is clear, but the
overtaxing of our nations eco
nomic strength compells us to
depend upon volunteers to sup
plement the professional soldier.
These volunteers, the State Ma
tional Guard Unuits, are our Min
ute Men of today.
'To insure that the overall
strength of the National Guard
is maintained, the National Guard
Bureau has given the Adjutant
General of the State of Alaska the
ultimatum of increasing the
strength of the Bird. Battle Group
ito 45qo of its full, authorized
strength by January 1st., 1861, or
of facing the probable transfer of
the Battle Group to another state"
the Major said. "All other Battle
Group units throughout this state
are gaining in strength. Kodiak is
losing strength"
Major Mapes reasoned that Ko-
diak's loss of membership in its
unit showed lack of interest by
local citizens, and lack of interest
by the Guardsmen themselves as
evidenced by their failure to vol
unteer their services for civic &C.
tivities. He stated as one example,
the complete lack of any National
Guard observance on Veterans Day.
Fundamentally, though, he stated
that the lack of leadership by a
qualified commissioned officer ac-
counts for much of the apathy
within the local Guard unit. He
praised Sergeant First Glass Gene
Sundberg for his devotion to duty
and his hard work on behalf of
the Kodiak National Guard, but
stated the unit does desperately
need an officer to direct and pro-
mote its operations. A civilian In
fantry Reserve Officer employed
at the Naval Base is being sought
for this position.
Major Mapes concluded his talk
with these suggestions to the
Rotarians. Contact SIC Sundberg
and let him know you are support
ing him and the Guard. Encour-
age men you know to join the
Guard. Be sure they are good men.
Include the Guard in any and all
civic activities. Include the Guard
in your Civil Defense plan and
coordinate the plan with them.
And finally, the National Guard
is built from the community up,
not from Washington, D. C. down."
