LADY MARINE

TO REJOIN OUTFIT
SEATTLE. Nov. 21 — UP! — Miss
Anne Revak, a corporal in the Ma
rine Reserve since World War II,
applied last July from Fairbanks,
Alaska for active duty in the corps.
"Sorry, can't do it," was the gist
of a score or more of replies re
ceived to her insistent demand for
restoration to duty, "We are not
ordering reservists resident outside
the continental United States to
active duty.”
Miss Revak supplied her own solu
tion. She drove the 3.252 miles to
Seattle via the Alcan highway, ar
riving here early this month.
Then came word from Washing
ton that she's in. But Miss Revak
wasn’t.
j She had driven to Pittsburgh. Pa.,
| to visit relatives rather than wait
| for what she figured would be the
slow word from Washington. So she
l reeled off another fast 3.000 miles
! and today she was sworn in. pre
paring to go to Camp Pendleton,
Ca.if —1.000 miles south of here.
That's roughly 10.000 miles total,
but Miss, oops Corporal Revak, is
happy and so, presumably, is the
Marine Corps.

j Dangerous river rapids are no

( recruiter Sgt. Carl Kawagley, non
, commissioned-officer-in- charge of

chance to add another name to the
; 2nd Alaskan Scout Battalion unit's
roster, he makes the hazardous trip
'• down the Kuskokwin River from
Akiak to Bethel.
He travels the 40 miles in a 22
| foot open skiff powered only by a
10-horsepower outboard motor to
bring recruits to the doctor for
! examinations. The recruits, appar
j ently filled with admiration for his
j navigation skill, took up collections
| to defray the expenses of the three
80-mile round trips he has already
made.
The Kuskokwin River is north of
Bristol Bay on the Bering Sea.
