days" and saw out bodies on

Army Helping
Handicapped

FORT POLK, La. Dec. 10
tAP) "A military police unit
at this recently reactivated
Army post is planning
Christmas surprise for handi-
capped students at a special
school in Lebanon, Pa.
1t all started two months ago
when Company c of the 165th
MP Battalion, Lebanon, was
called to active duty. The COM
pany trained for two weeks at
an armory before leaving for
Fort Polk.
For four days the men
marched past a gray frame
building. scarcely noting that
it was the Avon School for the
Physically Handicapped. Then
a pupil Scooted up to M. Sergt.
Wayne GaSsert and asked if
the company would drill for
his schoolmates.
Sergt. Glassert looked down
and noted a safety patrol
badge enScribed Captain"
The rugged MP sergeant
snapped to attention. Sir, I
have no alternative. You out
rank me-"
Volunteers Drill
Sergt. Gassert led his men
to the county-operatec school
where they met other pupils at
the institution. Somel of the
children had cerebral palsy and
muscular dystrophy; others
were confined to wheelchairs.
The company had no drill
team, but Capt. Frederick Tice,
the commanding officer, au-
thorized Sergt. Gassert to pick
a volunteer group.
They drilled for the students.
What's more, the soldiers
Clipped in and bought a tablet,
pen and box of candy for each
of the 19 children at Avon.
When Company C left for
Fort Polk, every student went
to the armory to tell the men
goodbye.
Margaret Kline, one if the
instructors, said she tried to
discourage the children because
of bitter cold weather.
Feeling of Belonging
But their going to the ar
mory is something the chill
dren will never forget" Miss
Kline wrote Sergt. Ssert.
They felt a feeling of be-
longing"
Il certainly miss my Sergt.
Gassert." wrote the young pa
troll captain.
Miss Kline wrote that the
pupils began a special study
about Louisiana and current
events so they would know
where their soldiers were and
why they left home.
And while the military police
unit prepares a Christmas sur
prise for the children, the boys
and girls are also planning
something special for their SOL
dierS.
Of course, nobody is saying
what the surprises are. After
all, you don't open Christmas
