MEDICAL COMPANY MESS SECTION

The 4th Division Food Service supervisor set up a program to give the cooks more training in food preparation.
The four mess sgts. from each battalion messhall were picked as instructors.

Some of the subjects taught were: Meat Preparation, Vegetable Cookery, Heavy Duty Kitchen Equipment, Mess Management
and Administration. And, the most important of all, Personal Hygiene.

These classes are given in the mornings; one week of each month. The training, however, did not stop in the class room;
it was, and still is, carried on a duty basis.

MEDICAL COMPANY MOTOR POOL

Usually the Motor Pool is associated with muddy vehicles, gasoline, grease and dirty fatigues. This may be true
in the majority of units; but in Medical Company, things are different.

At Fort Benning there were few vehicles, resulting in most of the men attending Regimental Motor Maintainance and
Driver's School. The lucky few that had vehicles were kept busy

The Medical Company drivers looked different than those from other companies: they stayed clean. Clean fatigues,
shined boots and fresh shaves was the order of the day Motor Sgt. Whitman required this as did Aragon.

At Mannheim, Germany the company received new vehicles and became fully equipped.

At Wildflecken, Sgt. Stevenson became Motor Sgt., a position he holds at present.

Our Motor Pool continues to roll as the cleanest and most efficient in the regiment.

Sgt. Jesse Stevenson.
