Jeanette A. Seibold, seaman recruit, WAVES, USN, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John A. Seibold of Route 3, Greenwood (Clark Co.), Wis., has recently plunged from civilian to military life.

A U.S. Navy recruit, she has now completed training at the U.S. Naval Training Center, Great Lakes, Ill. For her, the past few weeks have bee filled with drill, learning to identify aircraft and ships; how, when, why and whom to salute; the background of Naval courtesy, history, organization, and how to live harmoniously and efficiently as a member of a large and complex organization.

Now ready for further assignment, the Wave will be transferred to duty within the shore establishment of the Navy, to one of certain foreign stations, or to a service school for specialized training.
