MANIJAL FOR NONCOMMISSIONED OFFICERS. 179 



Now carry the right-front corner over and lay it on the left- 

 rear corner. Pull all canvas smooth, throw guys toward square 

 iron, and pull bottom edges even. Then take the right-front 

 corner and return to the right, covering the right-rear corner. 

 This folds the right side of the tent on itself, with the crease 

 in the middle and under the front side of tent. 



Next carry the left-front corner to the right and back as de- 

 scribed above ; this when completed will leave the front and 

 rear sides of the tent lying smooth and flat and the two side 

 walls folded inward, each on itself. 



Place the hood in the square iron which has been folded 

 downward toward the bottom of the tent, and continue to fold 

 around the square iron as a core, pressing all folds down flat 

 and smooth and parallel with the bottom of the tent. If each 

 fold is compactly made and the canvas kept smooth, the last 

 fold will exactly cover the lower edge of the canvas. Lay all 

 exposed guys along the folded canvas except the two on the 

 center width, which should be pulled out and away from bot- 

 tom edge to their extreme length for tying. Now, beginning 

 at one end, fold toward the center on the first seam (that 

 joining the first and second widths) and fold again toward the 

 center, so that the already folded canvas will come to within 

 about 3 inches of the middle width. Then fold over to the 

 opposite edge of middle width of canvas. Then begin folding 

 from opposite end, folding the first width in half, then making 

 a second fold to come within about 4 or 5 inches of that al- 

 ready folded ; turn this fold entirely over that already folded. 

 Take the exposed guys and draw them taut across each other, 

 turn bundle over on the under guy, cross guys on top of bundle, 

 drawing tight. Turn bundle over on the crossed guys and tie 

 lengthwise. 



When properly tied and pressed together this will make a 

 package 11 by 23 by 34 inches, requiring about 8,855 cubic 

 inches to store or pack. 



Stencil the organization designation on the lower half of the 

 middle width of canvas in the back wall.
