National Guard Offers Interesting,
Profitable Careers For Young Men
By ED DOHERTY
Every Wednesday night in the
Shelton armory a group of 47 en-
listed men and three officers, mem-
bers of Battery B of the 700th
Anti-Aircraft battalion, received
training in the latest weapons of
war carrying on a tradition wlfieh
dates back to 1636.
LONG BEFORE the establish-
meet of the Republic, the militia
of Massachussetts and other states
provided the military defense for
the colonies and later under Gen-
eral George Washington they
formed a continental army during
the revolutionary war.
The National Guard of today is
the counterpart of the citizen-sol-
dier of yesteryear. However, to-
day, National Guardsmen are
trained according to standards set
by the U.S. Army with the most
modern equipment available.
The Shelton unit of the National
Guard was organized November
12, 1947. Battery B of the 700th
Anti-Aircraft Battalion is an auto-
matic weapon, self propelled unit
which can swing into action on a
minute notice in the event of a
national or state emergency. The
National Guard, unlike any other
military organization, is a dual
federal-state body and can be
called into service by either the
governor of the state or the pres-
ident of the United States.
In order to be an active mem-
ber of the guard, a person must
attend 48 drills a year and spend
15 days in encampment during the I
summer where actual warlike con-
ditions are simulated.
THERE ARE MANY outstand-
ing advantages which go along
with guard membership. They in-
clude training in such field as
communications, mechanics, sup-
cooking, administration and
many others besides extra pay,
comradeship, training for leader-

crime guns mounted on an M-15

machine guns, rocket launcners
and U. S. Carbine Caliber 0.M1
ries.
The guard also has a great deal
of eqmpment such as gas marks,
tents and other types of supplies
for camping outdoors.
The lational Guard has an air
arm called the Air National Guard
and they maintain bases through-
out the country flying the latest
military aircraft.

who have a military obligation to

senior joins the guard before Feb-

cation and then take his basic
training for six months this stun-
mer. After that time he will re-
turn home to spend two and a half
years of active duty here and three
years of inactive duty
There are many advantages in
joining the National Guard for
a high school senior including only
6 months away from home instead
of two years which would be re-
quired for regular army or navy
service; a chance to serve with
boys from his own hometown; an
opportunity to coi]tinue, with his:
regular job or schooling while at
the same time fulfilling his mili-
tary obligation and the benefit of
weekly drills and training which
makes it much easier for him to
make the adustment to military
life gradually instead of all at once
as would be necessary in army or
navy service. High school boys

investigate the many advantages
of Joining the National Guard.
There are also many advantages
for a veteran in joining the Na-
tional Guard. Besides extra pay
for drills the veteran can earn
retirement benefits after complet.
ing 20 years of service. He can
apply the time he has spent in
the armed forces to thi retirement
and if his total service runs to
30 years he receives even larger
retirement benefits. A master ser-
geant with 20 years of service will
receive about $31.70 a month when
he reaches the age of 60. If he
stays in the service for 30 years
he will receive about $61.78. The
amount of retirement depends on
the length of service and the rat-
of the individual upon reach-
the age of 60. A private in-
surance policy which would pro-
vide the same benefits would cost
a mbstantial sum. Veterans who
have completed several years of
service can earn retirement bene-
fits in a comparatlvy short time.
