This Century is labeled as the I T
Warfare Century. We had the
World War I, the World War II, ,
the Korean Conflict, Vietnam, the
Persian Gulf and several small
outbursts around the world.
There are just a very few people
if any left that witnessed the World
War one, where the Yanks went to
France and Germany, in the teen
years of the 20th Century. At the
present time I don't believe there
are any veterans alive from that
great war, from around here, in
fact there are just a very few across
the whole country.
The way it is any war is "Hell,"
and men face the hardships during
that time to bring peace around the
world. The date set aside was
November 1 1 , and was known as
"Armistice Day." For several years
Armistice day was observed on Nov. 1 1, and when I was a small boy
all it ment to me was, "Ah !" a day out of school never knowing the real
meaning of what it stood for.
Soon after the end of W.W.I, Germany was preparing to strike again
and rule the world. Italy and Japan sided in with them and had the
whole world uneasy for a while. It all started when Germany invaded
Poland in September, 1 939. Hitler and company were on the rampage
taking country after country at the beginning of World War II. Hitler
took several of the small countries in Europe, finally taking France,
and was bombing England all the time.
All this time the United States remained nutural and not getting into
any kind of action. Than on December 7, 1941, the Japanese Empire
made there daring surprise raid on Pearl Harbor, doing great damage
to the U S Fleet that was tied up in the harbor.. This prompted the
United States to declare war on the Japanese Empire.
During the early months of the war the US was on the defensive as
the Japanese were taking Island after Island in the South Pacific. One
of the first encounters the US made with Japan was during the battles
of Bataan, Corregidore and Mindanao, where the Japanese took the
Philippines where Gen. McArthur left making the statement." I Shall
Return."
The first drive against the Japanese and the start of the offensive the
Marines took Guadalcanal, in the Solomon islands. The US army made
their landing on North Africa and started the long drive to Sicily, and
into Italy toward Europe.
Meanwhile the Marines were taking Island after island in fierce
fighting on Islands as Tarawa, Truk, Peleliu, Saipan, Iwo Jima and
Okino wa. The US regained the Phillipines once again where at the start
of the war the prisoners of war had to make that death march to the
prison camps.
The big landing at Normandy put the Germans really in a corner and
the end looked near, still there was bitter fighting to take place. All the
allied forces moving in on the German army, the Russians from the
east, the British and US from the west and south drove the Germans
back to all meet to end the war in Europe. Still in the Pacific heavy
fighting was taking place where Marines were dying by the thousands
taking those Islands back from the Japanese, who made the vow to
fight to the death and not to surrender. Finally they dropped the A
Bomb on the mainland of Japan wiping out thousands of people the
Japanese surrendered to end the W.W.II.
Well After a couple of peaceful years things started to brew up once
again and Truman made the announcement he was sending troops into
Korea to settle some differences between North Korea and South
Korea, a little police action he said, not realizing an all out war was on
the making and it coasted the US thousands of lives in three years.
There were nearly 58000 men killed or missing from that war. After
the war was ended the troops returned home with out any banners
flying, no bands or parades down main street. Everything went un
noticed. Korea the Forgotten War. There were some tough battles
fought in Korea that many guys will never for get, battles like the
Frozen Chan gj in Reservoir, where the troops were surrounded and cut
off from the rest of the allied forces and they had to fight their way out.
One Marine Officer called in saying, there is enemy on our left flank,
enemy on our right flank, enemy behind us and enemy in front of us,
" By God They Won't Get Away This Time." All the big battles such
as Pork Chop Hill, Heart Break Ridge, Bloody Ridge, Old Baldy,
where the Chinese army out numbered the alllied forces 10 and 20 to
one most of the time. When the war ended it just faded right out of sight
no one bothered to remember all those who fought in that campaign.
All along things were very uneasy in Indo China where Vietnam
broke out where troops were sent in to where many people thought we
had no right to be there yet we lost many many personnel in that war
known as the 10,000 day war, where battles raged such as Kha Sanh,
Hue, Da Nang, Chu Lai, Plaiku, Que Nhen, Da Lat, Saigon Bac Tieu
and many other battle sites many guys will never forget.
Than came the Persian Gulf battle that didn't take much time to end
but still it threatened the whole world.
The Century of Warfare, lets hope 2000 will be a better century.

gram for Sundays.
Women's group meets'lon
Wednesday nights. Men's group will
begin soon on Monday evenings. I
read the article about the police stop
finding the water gun. It was enter
taining to read. I am also saddened to
watch a cop show on T.V. about a
L.A. youth who was killed robbing a
store with a water gun. I guess the
darkness of the hole down the barrel
does not give an answer if it's steer or
watertoy plastic. I understand in
California, toy guns require an ,or-
Thank you my

To the editor,
My Beloved Friend:

advice, during my crazy life.
And, yet your true love and

more love in your heart for them
than I, But, I love and respect .(
you for that. "Oh Great Spirit

I've lost a True Good Friend, '
For she has helped me thru thick
& thin, to help us, gave us our '
freedom, And she is gone. For
I know now, I have lost a good
friend, And I never ever got a
chance to say Thank you, I know
now it is too late!
Grandfather, Bless her and make
her journey a good way!"
Bless all the people in 'Warm

different from real guns. I thank God
our police followed their training in
seeking a call about a gun. Even if
the gun was a toy. '
I want to thank Warm Springs for
being yourselves with guests. Once
again we had groups of young people
coming here to do work for Tribal
Housing and to visit the reservation.
Each group returned home with great
love and respect of the people of
Warm Springs. Again, thank you.
And finally it is time.. ..School starts
in four days. Have you had your
child do some reading? A few math
problems? Or is your child on a school
day bedtime at night? It is time to
know what education is the future.
See you in church.

To the editor,
Twenty years or so ago, tribal
members who were part of George
Schneiterfs Rockinf 4-H club wanted
to learn about livestock and agricul
ture. Today, 4-H is different. Maybe
not better, but different.
Now, the Extension agents are
directed to persuade adults to be
come volunteer leaders. That's dif
ferent from the past, when George
pretty much was the leader.
Now, the agents are directed to
ward other tasks. Maybe not more
important, but other tasks just the
same. For instance, we're helping
tribal members develop farm busi
ness plans to increase their net worth.
We're working with the Tribe to help
establish new tribal enterprises to
increase everyonefs net worth. We're
offering OSU credit courses to all
tribal members who want to further
their education.
Other tasks mean we now have to
persuade adults to become 4-H vol
unteers. And yes, we depend a whole
lot on the adult volunteer to help the
youngsters through their projects.
This past year, the 4-H program
provided technical support to youth
in the community who raised live
stock projects for the Jefferson
County Fair. However, the youth did

not have a leader to help them in a
club format. The Warm Springs 4-H
program is still in need of adult lead
ers, especially for livestock projects.
If someone from the community can
step forward to claim that role of
leadership it would be possible to
once again involve more children
and parents in livestock production
as there once were in George
Schneiter's day.
4-H livestock projects aren't in
tended to be get-rich-quick schemes.
They are intended to help kids de
velop skills that will carry them
through adult life. But the kids have
to want to raise the animal in the first
place, to be accountable, and to grow
with their club. 4-H is there to teach
kids about the Three R's: Responsi
bility, self Reliance, and Respect.
Once kids learn the Three R's, they
turn out to be pretty great kids.

"Texas" Bob Pawelek

P.S. Those adults interested in
taking an active, positive role to make
a difference in kid's lives in the com
munity can contact the Warm Springs
4-H Program to get started. Our next
basic leader training sessions are
September 1 2th and September 23rd.
