WASHINGTON — For the first
time since airmail was introduced in
1918, a major new type of postal
service — express mail — will offi
cially start Sunday.
Express mail will provide guaran
teed same-day or next-daV delivery
depending on whether the sender
takes the mail to a post office or an
airport. Pickup and delivery is also
offered at extra cost. Parcels can
weigh up to 70 pounds.
The expedited mail service, avail
able in most big-city areas, will cost
extra. But the U.S. Postal Service
will refund the postage if a delivery
is late — except for delays caused by
strikes or flight cancellations.
In tryouts under way since 1970,
95 percent of all shipments were de
livered on time and over 99 percent
were delivered within 24 hours, the
U.S. Postal Service said. The opera
tion, now covering 400 cities, is
being expanded to 900 cities.
Next-day service means express
mail taken to a post office by 5 p.m.
will be arrive at the destination post
office by 10 a.m. the next day. It will
be delivered to the addressee by 3
p.m. at extra cost.
For same-day service, the sender
takes the mail to an airport, where it

officer. They serve in the 4th Re
connaissance Battalion, U. S.
Marine Corps Reserve, in San An
tonio.
Following a half day of instruction
on recon patrol techniques mid the
mission of the recon platoon, both
companies made an eight-mile
forced march to Camp Bullis, an
Army training camp west Uf San An
tonio.
The companies were broken
down into individual recon teams
and, after dark, the two Units were
pitted against each other to obtain
information
The primary mission for the
teams was to git the r information on
the size of the enemy force, the type
of weapons employed, and other
basic data needed by their iritelli-
gence sections. Recoin units only
engage the enemy with fire and ma
neuver as a last resort.
Intelligence takes the “evidence”
and assesses the best avenues of at
tack, the size of attacking unit
needed to seize a postilion, arid how
the unit should be equipped.
Texas A&M cadets regularly
cooperate with reserve arid active
military units for realistic training.
