Lewis DeLos Reyes, son of Mrs. Rose DeLos Reyes, route 3, Anaheim, it was announced recently. One of the companies, a “control unit,” lived on a field ration while the other companies ate emergency rations to see how they compared physically with those of the control unit. The experiment was held in order to give the War Department some idea of how men would get along on field rations for extended periods in view of conditions arising in the war where men spend weeks in forward or isolated positions beyond lines of supply. Cpl. Reyes has a brother, Cpl. Arnold DeLos Reyes, in the Southwest Pacific. WRITES FROM CAMP T/5 Myron Smith, formerly of the Anaheim Gazette staff, now is with the U. S. army at Fort Jackson, S. C.

Mrs. Smith and their four children plan to stay with her parents until the war is over, he said. T/Sgt. H. V. Lemke To Get Four Gold Bars for Service AT A 12TH AAF B-25 BASE—Technical Sgt. Harland V.
