Description

with the oncoming LA maneuvers, the "military editor" of the Shreveport Times was informed that the armies will be treating the civilians as "enemies;" as in the real war one cannot know if the friendly civilians that come up might be friendly or are foes; goes on to write that were some incidents in the past with young LA teenagers playing pranks and mocking the soldiers and a convoy stopping to let a woman get her hat--these will not be repeated and will more than likely end up with said civilians becoming prisoners of war; article closes with saying to keep the kids and hats at home during the maneuvers
