Commandant At Lejeune This Week

oAMP L E J E U N E — Gen. A. A. Vandegr l f t , C o m m a n d a n t of the Marine Corps, is spending F r i d a y and Sa turday he re as the guest of Ma j . Gen. John Mars-ton, c o m m a n d i n g off icer of the c a m p .

Gen. Vandegr l f t was stat ion-ed here four yea r s ago f irs t a s ass i s tan t division c o m m a n d e r and la te r as c o m m a n d e r of the F i r s t Mar ine Division.

through your e f for t s and your abili t ies our ent ire p r o g r a m of p r e p a r i n g squadrons and groups for oversas was accc le ra ted and m a d e m o r e efficient.

Here a t Cher ry Point and its outlying f ields the r was no phase of aviat ion in which the Women Rese rves were not prominent . Radio, Operat ions, Assembly and Repa i r . R a d a r , Aerology, Syn-thetic Training, Communicat ions , Ordnance—in all of these special-izations the help which you gave

; us was invaluable. ! Nor ' a re we unmindful of t h e . j contribution which you have I m a d e toward the adminis t ra t ion ; of this Base . The high s t a n d a r d s

of your cler ical work, the long I and tedious hours in Transpor ta -

tion and the Pos t Exchange , your planning a n d execution of the hundred act ivi t ies of Special Ser-vices, in every depar tment—Ma-teriel , Personnel , Q u a r t e r m a s t e r , in each section of every depar t -ment—you did the job and you did it well.

In the message f rom the Com-m a n d a n t which you have just heard , Genera l Vandegr i f t said that " A s you have served with us you have learned f rom us . " Tha t is a f ine though ' But m a y I add to those words, cl.' , tha t a s we have served with you. we have learned f r o m you. We have

learned anew the lesson of loy-alty. To that special loyalty of which Mar ines a r e so proud, you have brought , through your good and fa i thful service , a new force, a new vitality. F o r this l e s s o n -above all—are we so gra te fu l to-

day .

Cher ry Point is s i tua ted in an a r ea known as one of the best insect b reeu ing s i tes in the U. S.A.
