This is her story in her own words: went to high school in Riverside, Cajif . I got good grades and could have gotten Scholarships, Scholar-ships, but I was tired of school and difln't want to go straight thfijttgh. But I didn't know what I wanted to do. p I didn't want to'work at McDonald's or A&W, as others oth-ers in my family had done. I wanted income and I wanted the GI Bill. One of the counselors coun-selors at the school said that people who take a break from school usually do better later on, and I knew some people who had enlisted. Plus, I wanted to jump out of airplanes, and I couldn't afford af-ford that. At first, paratroopers wasn't an option. My older sister, my best friend and I all took the Air Force test together, and then the Army test. Unfortunately, the only thing then available in the Air Force was helicopter mechanic, me-chanic, so we started looking at the Army. In the recruiting office there was a poster that said, "Last Step toward Becoming a Man: Paratrooper." "Yeah," I said, "that's what I want to do not become a man, I want the paratrooper part." I was just joking, but the recruiter said, "You know, that's just opened to women." Only two women had gone through it by then, an experimental experi-mental group. I said to myself, "In that case, that's what I want. I want it for two years." Only four bases trained paratroopers, so I didn't have to worry about an assignment, as-signment, and it pretty much meant going to the south. The two-year training option for women meant that you became a parachute rigger the ones who packed the parachutes, the equipment and the vehicles (like tanks). I went to Fort Jackson, S.C., for about eight weeks. Because there was a big influx in-flux of women in the military at that time, the Army didn't have supplies for everybody. We never did get some of the parts to our uniforms. You went through a line, and some of us got sneakers, I got shoes, and my sister got boots, even though we were Cole Get the 'MHS Get the . 1 - 800 - toyota I THE ALL NEW TOYOTA TUNDRA" HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 4x4, Access Cab, 4.7 liter U, Auto Rates as Low As STARTING AT On Approved Credit $28,116 "Has $299, 6oomtmam In, phi tor W It h hi.. 2tlh 2007. m ''i'ff'MAit.

About that time, an increasing all supposed to get all of them. But that's all the quartermaster quartermas-ter hatfl.

The Army didn't make a lot of effort to be sure the uniform's uni-form's fit, either. There was no way I could close the top button on my shirt, and the Army doesn't like you coming back for exchanges. I have a picture of the whole unit close to graduation, gradua-tion, and some are wearing their dress uniform, and some are wearing their fatigues because they didn't get their dress hat, and you can't wear a dress uniform without a dress hat. The photograph looks kind of weird. We were also supposed to get dress gloves, but many didn't, and you never wore them anyway. any-way. In basic, we did a lot of marching and rifle training with the M16. 1 did well as a sharpshooter. The M 16 was so light it felt like a toy, and it was hard to take it seriously. The instructors demonstrated by putting the butt against somebody's head and shooting, shoot-ing, and the person hardly felt anything at all. We did have to take them apart, clean them, and put them back together, though we would never have had to use them in combat. We weren't allowed in combat at that time. We also had a lot of classroom class-room training, even on how to put on makeup. The self-defense training was very good. Our bivouac was camping training, orienteering orien-teering with a compass and map. We never got the results of our psychological training, though someone said that my sister and I got the highest scores they had ever seen. Next week, Irene talks more about boot camp and the women who were there. I Some veterans may wish, on their own, to tape or digital record their memories of military service.
