Leonard Weber, left, of Tacoma and Carl Uppman of Gig Harbor didn't attempt to put on their gas masks during the July 1934 Citizen's Military Training Camp (CMTC) exercises at Camp Murray until after the wind had whipped some of the tear gas being used for training in their direction. They received a teary eyed lesson in military preparedness. In the 1930s, young men interested in military careers could volunteer for summer training camps operated by the army. Camp Murray is at the southeast end of American Lake and is still headquarters for the Washington National Guard. (T. Times 7/13/1934, pg. 1)
