Catone, one of the Fort Edward boys now in training with the U. 8. Army at Camp Gruber, Okla, has written an interesting letter which tells of the intensive work the men are going through. According to Sergeant Catone's letter, there is little "spare time" in a day for the boys but they seem to enjoy the training and are anxious to get themselves in shape for the job ahead. Sergeant Catone's letter follows: "Sorry I haven't had time to write sooner, but we're really kept on the move here, day and night.

This new, fighting army is now on quite different basis, from the old National Guard. Things we used to study and practice for weeks are being taught and mastered in I matter of days. Everything has been streamlined, and every available moment of the day is being utilized. "A typical program for day would run like this: First call at 4:30, chow at 5, leave for rifle range at 5:45, fire from about 7 until 11, then hike back to camp for lunch at 12:15, clean rifles for a 2 P. M.

inspection. Then a critique on the scores for the day. In this critique, faults and flaws found in the shooting of each individual soldier are discussed and the man who makes mistake is expected to correct It immediately. Through this method of instruction, our company has had 85 per cent of its men qualify as riflemen, which is a tribute to the way men from alls walks of life have been taught how to apply themselves at work. Were it not for the all-too-frequent dust storms, even more of our men might have made the grade.

My own score on record fire lacked six points of being in the sharpshooter bracket. It WAS real thrill to be able to fire the new M-1 or Garand rifles. They're really great rifles.

After week of intensive drill, 200 officora and non -commissioned officers were graduated. I managed to pull out with an certificate, and it sure was tough grind. At any rate, the net result la that I'm now teaching the second platoon how to fight with a bayonet. "Once more returning to the duties of the day, after Retreat at 5:30, and chow at 5:45, we attend school for non sioned officers. This class is held Your nights each week, on the others we are free to go to Muskogee or to the Post Exchange.

But generally we're tired enough to hit the hay while it's still daylight. none of the Fort' Edward boys is in my. company, I've met quite a few of them at the Post Exchange, and the greatest worry of all is how much they all miss the good old Fort Edward water. Although the water in camp is palatable now, it's still warm, and tastes of chlorine. We also miss the nice cool nights.

A cool night here has 85 degrees as a Low' for the entire night. The next few weeks will be in all probability the toughest days of our training. During this time, we will train, on the most difficult obstacle course in the country: half a mile of barbed wire, moats, walls, hurdles, trenches and all to be navigated with 55-pound pack. When we come through that, we'll be all set for full scale field maneuvers, which will wind up our basic training. "Well It's getting late, and I've got a lot of sleep to make up, so I'll close now.

I hope all is well back home and that this war interlude will be over soon, so that we all may resume our normal duties In a peaceful world. "Best of luck to all. "Sergt. Patsy J. Catone, "Co.
