Guard Two Texas National Guard divisions, tfie 49th Armored Division which has a unit in Irving and tfie 36th Infantry, both learned what was behind the "green door" in Houston this weekend. But mum is tfie word. The green door just happened to be tfie color scheme of barracks at Ellington Air Force Base at Houston wfiere one of tfie U.

S. largest map manuevers Exercise Cloverleaf was field under tight security precautions to train more than 1,000 staff officers and key enlisted men of the National Guard and Army Reserve from a five state area. The three day "paper- war" problem, conducted over two weekend periods, provided a realistic command post exercise for both of National Guard divisions, withtfie- oretical tactical problems giving commanders and their staffs training in mobile, dispersed operations under conditions of extensive nuclear warfare. Cloverleaf Exercise marked another chapter in a series of 10 such exercises conducted since 1957 by the U.S. 4th Army and the 75th Manuever Area Command, tfie latter a reserve unit based In Houston.

The problem played by the Guardsmen was conducted over a map of Europe with "controllers" tossing everything at tfie commanders of tfie 49th and 36th from nuclear warfare to nasty weather. The command post exercise, however, was strickly a training exercise and not a test of any contemplated plan, said Gen, Lutfier E. Orrick, 49th Armored Division commander. "This exercise gives our commanders first hand opportunity to exercise tfieir gement in crucial decisions. True to life situations are tossed repeatedly Into their laps, and we are graded on how we meet and attack these problems," said General Orrick.

"It is more of a war of the mind, than of the muscle," the division commander continued. This differs from summer camp training, General Orrick pointed out, where all members of the division are actually engaged in "on the ground" training for tfieir specific job. In Cloverleaf, tfie emphasis is to sharpen staff coordination and tactical procedures not required during actual training exercises. Exercise director was Lt. Gen.

Thomas W. Dunn, commanding general of tfie 4th U. S. Army at Ft. Sam Houston.
