VOLUME XI - No. 42 SIX PAGES WHITE SANDS MISSILE RANGE NEW, MEXICO, FRIDAY, JANUARY 20, 1960 Retiree Grew Up With V-2 M/Sgt. Johns In Missilery Since Start An Army non-com who has worked directly with the nation's military missile program since its beginning - from the captured German V-2 to today's Nike Zeus anti-missile missile-retires from -active duty on Jan. 31. He is Master Sergeant David Johns Jr., a 38-year-old ex-prisoner of war with more than 20 years of service in the Army, nearly 15 of those years on the launching lines at White Sands Missile Range, N. M. Probably the only GI in any of the 'Services with such a record, Johns has played a working role in the Army's first steps into missilery with the V-2, the development of the Nike Ajax and Nike Hercules air defense missiles, and tests with the Navy Talos as a land-based air defense system. For the past two years he has been a missile internal guidance technician with the Army's Nike Zeus system, the only anti-missile missile now in development in the Free World. BACK WHEN What has it been like, watching the nation's missile arsenal grow from the early exploratory steps into today's lineup of deadly weapons? 'Back then the sirens sounded and everyone knock· ed off work to watch each time we launched a V-2; to· day you see a contrail up there and don't give it a second thought." , '''Back then" was November of 1946, only a year after the first rocket, a modified Tiny Tim, was fired from the New Continued on page IS Business Brisk Al The Library During All ol '60 :By ARLIENE MARTIN The reports from WSMR's Post Library indicate a flourishing business during 1960. It has not been determined whether the increase was due to some television sets breaking down or the stepped-up educational programs at WSMR. At any rate, instead of having / the TV repaired it would seem that Mom, Dad and the children turned to reading during their spare time. Visitors to the library, recorded by an "electric eye," numbeerd 132,671. The total books, magazines and records checked out amounted to 267,486 for the year, with an average of more than 20,000 processed each month. NON -FICTION Over 50 per cent of the books checked out were in the non-fiction category. There were 1,345 new books added to the library's , collection plus some 2,000 sent in from military installations which were closed.
