Boris Smolar's `Between You • • . and Me Editor-in-Chief Emeritus, JTA (Copyright 1980, JTA, Inc.) INSIDE THE MILITARY: On a military base in Florida — the Patrick Air Force Base — there is an insti- tute engaged in training military personnel for all branches in the U.S. armed forces as instructors in human relations instrumental in combatting racial bigotry, anti- Semitism and discrimination. The primary purpose of the institute is to promote harmonious relations in the U.S. armed fortes. In addition to training staff officers or instructors in human(race rela- tions, the institute disseminates educational materials and guidelines for use throughout the armed forces. It also provides consultant services to Defense Department organ- izations. It conducts research and performs evaluations of its programs' effectiveness. Its library has more than 8,000 books and .5,500 pamphlets, many of which deal with the subject of anti-Semitism. It also has 1,800 audio-visual items and 200 professional journals and newspapers, in- cluding American-Jewish newspapers and publications. ADL MATERIAL ON BIGOTRY: The anti-bigotry program which the institute conducts is similar to the pro- grain conducted by major Jewish civilian organizations among the general population but more specific in knowing its audience. Among the materials used by the institute are some published by the Anti-Defamation League of Bnai Brith. The institute also maintains contact with the American Jewish Committee. Among the members of its staff and faculty are Jews holding high military positions. Some of them go out of their way to declare in their records that their religion is Jewish, although regulations offer a choice to declare non-preference for any religion. There are more than 30 religious denominations listed by the institute as standard data prescribed by the Department of Defense. Policy guidance for the institute is furnished by the Race Relations Education Board of the Defense Depart- ment. The position of institute director rotates from service to service every three years. The present director is Captain Michael J. Marriott, U.S. Navy. Because members of the Army Reserve and National Guard find it difficult to put in 16 weeks of residency in the institute, a combination of residence and correspondence study has been developed for them. They are required to reside the first two weeks in the institute, then to follow up with 15 subcourses consisting' of 111 hours of corre- spondence work, then resume their in-residence in the in- stitute for two weeks which constitutes the final phase of the course. All three phases must be completed in one year. UPROOTING PREJUDICES: Although the graduates of the institute are limited in their in- structorship to function only in the ranks of the armed forces, their influence in combatting bigotry goes much further. Many men enter the armed forces with anti-Jewish and anti-black prejudices implanted in them by bigots in their home towns. Civilian organizations fighting bigotry cannot reach them in their military installations to uproot the implanted malicious propaganda. However the in- structors of the institue have been trained for this very same job — to eradicate bias. The men poisoned with anti- Semitic propaganda are educated by the instructors while in the armed services. When they return home later to civilian life their minds have been cleared of prejudice against national minorities. The biased feelings they had carried in their pre-military years under the influence of malicious elements gradually dissolve under the influence of the education on human relations they receive during the years of service in the armed forces. The work of the institute instructors thus continues to have its effect on them for the rest of their lives. That this work is effective can be seen from the growth of the program of the institute. Its in-residence course of study has evolved from an initial seven-week program in 1971 to the 16-week program of today. Field evaluation enables the Department of Defense to determine the ability of the institute graduates to accomplish the objectives of their instructional program. All indications show that the are successful in performing the mission for which they were trained.
