It is the story of a constant struggle upward, or the story of a gradual decline. Squadrons rise or decline as do empires or republics, and for the same reasons. Good or bad leadership and the soldier spirit or lack of it in the ranks either makes or breaks an organization. . The history of the Seventeenth is the story of a squadron's rise. A "hard-boiled" Captain, and a rank and file back of him in every move, early in the existence of the Seventeenth placed the squadron in the van of the regiment, where it still remains. The Seventeenth is made. It is known, not only in the Post, but in Vancouver and Portland, as the squadron "that does things." It is "hard-boiled" from the Commanding Officer to the last rookie assigned us, but at headquarters those in command know we have never fallen down on the job. Other squadrons may enjoy the same reputation, as far a we know, but it is generally known that any job too big for the rest of them is turned over to us. And we do it. The same squadron spirit that held the old Four Hundred and Third together thru the rain and mud and long hours of work last winter still prevails in the Seventeenth of today. We can look back on the history of this squadron with something of pride in the hardships overcome and the things ac­ complished. The mud and rain calamities of a year ago are jokes today. We didn't get to go to France. Or to Siberia. They didn't hold the game open quite long enough. But when you go , next week, you can tell them that you were 1. Marching to Mill Ded ication a member of the largest squadron in the 2. - 4. Moving Or d erly T ent fr om 403 to 17 United States Army, and the leading squad- 3. 403 Leaving Barr ack s for Mill ron of a regiment that has actually been in the field Ion O'er than any regiment in France today. That is a fact. The Second Provi­ sional Regiment was one of the first regi­ ments to actually be in the field, and we have seen more actual field service than nine-tenths of the m en who w ere fortunate enough to c ross the pond ahead of us. The Seventeenth Squadron, including the many months it was known as the 403rd Aero Construction Squadron, has been in the field a few days longer than one year. All of us were not here at that time, but the Squadron took to the field about the time the majority of the men over eas were being entrained for the training camps. During the last days of November, a year ago, one hundred and five officers from the Second Officers Training Camp, at Presidio, California, arrived at the Upper Cantonment. They found a few wooden barracks in ' a wilderness cut up by trenches dug by the engineers and infantry which had occupied the Post for several years. Seven of these officers were assigned in command of this squadron. Captain Morser, then a first lieutenant, was one of them. The others were Captain Kenneth Hodge­ man, in command; First Lieutenants Syl­ vester, Scott and Eckles, and Second Lieu­ tenants Clark and Ennis. Needless to state, no doubt, these officers found the climate somewhat different from that of the Presidio. The rain fell in tor­ rents, and while Captain Morser is not cer­ tain whether it was a mile and a half or five miles that he carried his luggage, including the green trunk that today con­ tains the squadron funds and records, before he located a barracks for the squadron, thru mud almost knee deep, he is certain of one fact : the only climatic difference in the days was that some days it rained a little harder than others. Outside a half dozen wooden barracks, one of which was the home of the 403rd, Vancouver Cantonment and the Signal Corps Cut-up Plant was at that time still neat white lines on blue prints, and the men who were to revolutionize the cutting of airplane stock and break all world records for pro­ duction, were only figures in long columns on large sheets of paper in the files of the VVar Department at Washington. That was only a year ago. Thirty thousand men from all states in the Union have made Oregon and Washing­ ton camps their home for the past year. A squad from each of forty states and a man from every state in the Union are now mem­ bers of the Seventeenth. The first week in December things began to happen. And the kaleidoscopic changes 1.

Squadron Mechanjcs and Engineer were attached to Captain Hodgeman's com- , ': '. i.'

mand. They had left Camp Custer a week before landing hel~e, and the rain had been pouring in Vancouver for days before they left their original home. They landed in the mud. It .was nearly dark. They were hungry, and there wasn't a cook in the outfit. l~ ortunately for those 105 men, of whom Supply Sergeant Luppold and Pvt. Mullen are the only ones with the squad today, before Captain Morser attended the officers training school he had been a mess sergeant in the regular army. A hasty survey of the other organizations forming at the Canton­ ment found no cooks to be had, but Pvt. Florres, an experienced K. P. with the Hos­ pital Corps, was impressed into service as a cook. The same spirit that has made the Seventeenth was shown that first night. Everyone, led by Lt. Morsel', peeled off th,eir coats and peeled spuds, or fell to. at such other necessary tasks with a willing hand. The supper, they say, was good. And if it was underdone or overdone in spots, and a little of the mud mixed in for seasoning, it was hot and plentiful, and no one suf­ fered any ill effects. On December 12, fifty men arrived from Camp Lewis. Among that fifty were Sgt. Witt, Sgt. Lewis, Mail Orderly West, Pvts. Cowles, Thornberg, Langdon, the Kloepfell brothers, Powell, 'VaItel' Johnson, and many others who are seated here at these tables. The organization of the squadron was rapidly being perfected, the one weak spot remaining the kitchen. Everyone was will­ ing, but all were inexperienced, and it was with great pleasure that the advent of a civilian cook was hailed the seventh of that month. But the situation was not perma­ nently relieved until Cook Wilhoit, who had charge of the preparation of this dinner, arrived from Kelly Field. With him came Cook Torrens, who altho a constnlction foreman in civil life, was assigned to the kitchen, and Cook Schone. Our other effi­ cient cooks came later. The tenth day of January is one of the red letter days of our history. It was on that day that the first contingent of Kelly l~ ield aviators arrived. Among them were Top Sgt. Fergueson, Sgts. Stewart, Techler, Miegan, Edwin L. Johnson, Davis and M. E. A. S. Schaeffer, and a great number of the men who made up the original 403rd. Two days later another contingent arrived from Kell y Field and in spite of the many trans­ fers to and from the squadron nearly every man here has recollections of sand storms and freezing nights that do not compare favorably with even such rain and mud as they have experienced in Vancouver. New Year's Day will be remembered by all who were here at that time as the day the 1. "'Vho Blew That Whistle?" measles quarantine was lifted and we got 2. Shining Up for Saturday Inspection our first glimpse of the bright lights of 3. "The Sawdust Trail" Portland. . 4. "Looks Like a Nice Day" The morning reports and record of events for that period are crowded with assign­ ments and transfer. Many whose names appear in these reports are still here. Other names are strange even to Captain Morser. Men were assigned one day and transferred out the next. Fifty-one men arrived . and Lt. McGill r eported for duty on the 11th day of Janu­ ary . The men were from Minnesota, and if any are still here they have fai1ed to make themselves conspicuous by breaking into the guard house or saluting an officer with both hands. On the 12th of January Lts. Eckles and Ennis were transferred to other commands. But the squadron was not destined to remain lieutenantless. On the 15th 1st Lts. O'Brien, Mordaci and Lilli and 2nd Lts. Miller, Leach and Valiant were attached for duty. On the 16th day of January Capt. Hodge­ man and Lt. Oglesby were transferred. But a greater loss, if possible, to the rank and file of the squadron, that same day, was three cooks, the mess sergeant and the top sergeant. The next day another cook and the dining room orderly were transferred. The men were destined for the woods. They are probably somewhere in the mob at the upper cantonment today, and could they be located, some of the O. D. clothes that the Kelly Field men turned in to Supply Sgt. Luppol d in order that the men going to the woods might be fully equipped, might also be found. The morning report of the 'next day was signed by the ranking officer of the squad­ ron, 1st Lt. Clarence W. Morser. And every morning report from.that day to this, except recently for a few days when Lt. Czulegar was in command, have been signed without other change than from 1st Lt. Morsel' to Captain Morser. Between the 11th and 20th the squadron strength dropped from 186 to 91 men. But the loss in numbers was more than compen­ sated when on the 17th Pvt. Clair A. Mott was attached. Mott wasn't mess sergeant at that time, so the fact that the squadron strength rapidly increased from the time he was attached, reaching the high mark of 212 during the next week, wasn't Mott's fault. Before another week the original 91 men again comprised Lt. Morser's command. February was an eventful month for the squadron. All during the busy days of January the men from the cantonment had been fatigu­ ing at the mill, walking to and from their work in the rain and mud, when they couldn't push the trucks out of the mire. The story of the erection of the mill is one 1. "Pie !" complete in itself. It is sufficient to state 2. " Ready To Go" here that from the day the first ground was 3. Mur phy and Mott broken until the dedication only 45 days '1. " Rest I" elapsed. The work was all government 5. "McGrew Boulevard" fatigue, but no one soldiered on it, altho the skk reports of that period are long and varied. Ono of the first entries of the month records the fact that Pvts. ---, Fergue­ son, Luppold and "Witt were appointed to the rank of sergeant. Fergueson was Cap­ tain Morser's clerk, LuppoJd was supply ser­ geant, as he is today, and \Vitt was mess sergeant. On the 3rd of February 2nd Lts. Czulegar and Ford were assigned for duty. In less than a week, however, they were placed on special duty, Lt. Ford in the mill and Lt. Czulegar in the canteen. The mill was dedicated the first Saturday of February. That night Major Bearden asked Lt. Morser when his squadron could move down. The reply was "At once." And Sunday, with four inches of snow on the ground, and a foot or more of mud under­ neath the snow, the erection of tents com­ menced. With two hammers, a hand axe and hand saw the squadron fell to on their new home. Twenty-four tents and the old mess hall were erected and ready for occupancy j n four days and the following Thursday the 403rd left its cantonment barracks and by nightfall was established in its new home. The 401st, 402nd, 404th and 406th squad­ rons were already here, at that time, but there was plenty of room for morning exer­ cises, which consisted mostly of double tim­ i ng for several miles around the old engin­ eers' mule pasture, where the men who came later, si nce we have moved to this location, broke all records by erecting twenty-nine tents before dinner one pleasant Sunday morning. All of you remember that Sunday. The record made when the squadron moved from the upper cantonment, and Cap­ tain Morser's civilian" life experience as a contractor and builder, destined" this squad­ ron to its work of regimental construction. Too many of the buildings of the regi­ ment and of the other squadrons to enu­ merate here are fhe work of this squadron. The men assigned here in August and Sep­ tember know full well what work in that line has been accomplished. More men of this squadron are on regimental construc­ tion today than of any other squadron other than the 113th Engineers, which was organ­ ized to take over just such work. Thru JUly and August the limited service men began to filter in. Fifty or more were assigned in JUly and were here in time to help move from the location near the mill to this location, a move that was made the 2nd day of August, between daylight and dark. It was during the last of August that the squadron reached its maximum strength and became the largest squadron in the United States Army. It was in August and Septem­ ber that the greater number of the men 1. Waiting for a Tent present today were assigned to the Seven­ 2. The Old and the N ew teenth. Those were busy days, and in the 3. "Hey, Sal'g., Where's Our T ent?" hustle and bustle of building the Annex and the Boulevard Addition to meet one of the old men was 1ike seeing a man from your home town. But we have all become acquainted during the three months ju t past, and while those who came later out~ number the men of the old 403rd, there is no distinction drawn and we are all mem~ bers of the "Hard~Boiled Seventeenth." And just a the squadron as an organiza~ tion has made good, so have individual members of the command. More good jobs were successfully administered by men of the Seventeenth than of any other squadron. To mention a few of them will give you an idea of just why headquarters always sends to the Seventeenth for the right man for the place. The success of the regimental canteen is due largely to the efforts of Lt. Czulegar and M. E. A. S. Seegar. Lt. Ford is day superintendent of all inspection crews. Lt. Oglesby is assistant superintendent of mill maintenance, and is responsible for the upkeep of t,he mill to a very large extent. M. E. A. S. Schaeffer is chief engineer at the dry kilns. Sgt. Miegan is in charge of all commercial sales of wood at the mill office. Sgt. Benz is a responsible member of the office stall personnel, as are Sgts. Jenkins and Johnson. Sgt. Techler holds a responsible position in the regimental supply office. Three unit foremen are members of the Seventeenth. They are Sgts. Lashua, Chap~ man and Pearce. Sgt. :r arvis is regimental electrician. Nine men of this command have worked up to head sawyers. They are Sgts. Boyd, Berry, Lewis, Johnson, Lantz, Smith, Cor~ porals Showman and George, and Pvt. 1st C. Cowles. Edgermen and foremen of lesser depart­ ments are too numerous to mention, but there is scarcely a man of the original 403rd who is not, today, holding down a respon­ sible position in the mill or in the regi~ mental work. And for the edification of those who are our guests it might be added that the Sev­ enteenth is also in the lead in other respects. We have more men than any other squadron on the disciplinary squad. 1. An Early ~forl1ing Task 2. Just Off the "Graveyard" It doesn't matter much what end we 3. Smith and Luppold Off Duty ·1.
