by Sgt J.L. Midgette Jr.

K-BAY - Confronting rock throwing mobs and receiving letter bombs in the mail cannot be called routine training, but for members of 1st Battalion, 3rd Marines, it was all in a day's work. Last week, the unit, formed into a battalion landing team (BLT), (with support units attached), ended 30 days training at Pohakoloa Training Area, on the Big Island, with a three day civil disturbance/counter rebellion exercise. The exercise began with a U. S. Consul General (played by Lieutenant Colonel D. R. Berg, executive officer, 3rd Marines) requesting U.S. Armed Forces assistance to protect U. S. citizens lives and property. The BLT, commanded by Lieutenant Colonel L. R. Gaboury, arrived at the trouble area and sealed it off with barbed wire and roadblocks, which were manned by Headquarters and Service Company. Alpha, Bravo and Charlie Companies established areas of responsibility around the area. During the exercise, Marines of the BLT were harassed and threatened by a rebellious local populace (played by NEW NAME - Mrs. Jo Ann Smith (right), widow of Medal of Honor winner Major Stephen W.
