"It's my observation that most Navy ships that are undermanned," Dr. Fiaher said "I don't think that the hard work and long hours you saw were atypical - there's a severe shortage of personnel at the bIgber petty officer levels." LCdr. Brooks added an explanation thaf the reallties of a volunteer Navy plus fiscal constraints have been causes of this situation in today's Fleet.

It was made clear by GSA that there was no obligation to purchase (either expressed or implied) by those who filled out the questionnaire, and those who received the questionnaire are under no obligation to return it ifthey do not wish to do so. The questionnaire was accompanied by a letter from A. B. Pace, director of the Real Property DiviSion of GSA's Public BuDdings Services, who statedthat the need was recognized for keeping current Wherry housing occupants informed about GSA's disposal plans as they develop.

Iwe hosts slminar on long rangl plans for tlSt, Ilaluation facilitils At the invitation of the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) Assistant Com- mander for T&E (AIR-1l6), representatives from each of the Navy's Major Range Test Facilities Base met recently at the Naval Weapons Center for a long range planning seminar on test and evaluation. Each activity has been directed by AIR-1l6 to submit a comprehensive long range planning document by Feb. 15, 1977. TheSe plans will be modeled after NWC's Project 21 report, a 25-year plan prepared by the T&E community as a guide for modernizing NWC ranges and test facilities. Seminar attendees from NAVAIR were Willard R. Rieger and Donald R. Bennett. Rieger, who is from the NAVAIRlong range planning office, has been appointed project leader for NAVAIR and will serve as the director and focal point of this Navy-wide task. Bennett, whose responsibilities are related to equipment improvement and modernization, will be the project coor- dinator for West Coast activities. NWC To Provide Advisory Aid With its extensive background in the processes and its understanding of the difficulties in conducting long range T&E planning (via Project 21), Ibe Naval Weapons Center will provide advisory assistance to participating activities as required. WhOe a large number of Center personnel will be available for consultation in specific technical or financial areas, Jerry L Reed, head of the Long Range P1anning Office (Code 0601), will be the coordinator for all advisory services provided by NWC to other activities. During the seminar, a series of presen- tations were made describing and discussing the methodology used by NWC personnel in the preparation of Project 21. Following welcoming remarks by Rear Achniral R. G. Freeman m, NWC Com- mander, Rieger and Bennett provided In- troductory information on the Navy's requirement to establish a joint positioo on the management and funding of its T&E facilities.

His previous tour of duty was as Surface Weapons Officer in NWC's Weapons Department. Learning E;xperlence Aftertheir return, Mater, Dean, Cote, and Gowing described their experiences to Dr. Roger Fisher and LCdr. Ed Brooks of the NWC Fleet Support Office and Dick Murphy of the Weapons Department. The four JPs made suggestions on ways that future ship visits might be arranged to provide maximum benefit to invol~ employees. All four agreed that the trip was well worth their whlle. They were impressed with the technical capabilities of the Hollister's crew and with the hard work they saw. Hard Working Team Both the officers and the crew were worked to their llmit," Dean said "uthat's the way everybody works in the F1eet, I think the Navy's earning its money." "It's my observation that most Navy ships that are undermanned," Dr. Fiaher said "I don't think that the hard work and long hours you saw were atypical - there's a severe shortage of personnel at the bIgber petty officer levels." LCdr. Brooks added an explanation thaf the reallties of a volunteer Navy plus fiscal constraints have been causes of this situation in today's Fleet. Mater said be was surprised at how old the systems were that are in use on the Hollister.

Purpose of the inquiries, which were sent to the tenants of the 93 residences out of the 600 Wherry homes that are stiIl occupied, was to learn if they are interested in the purchase of a dupiex or fourp1ex unit at a fair market value. Those responding to the questionnaire also were asked to indicate what they considered to be the most likely price for duplex and fourplex units, ranging from a low figure of $10,000 to more than ~,OOO. It was made clear by GSA that there was no obligation to purchase (either expressed or implied) by those who filled out the questionnaire, and those who received the questionnaire are under no obligation to return it ifthey do not wish to do so. The questionnaire was accompanied by a letter from A. B. Pace, director of the Real Property DiviSion of GSA's Public BuDdings Services, who statedthat the need was recognized for keeping current Wherry housing occupants informed about GSA's disposal plans as they develop. "It is our desire," Pace wrote, "that the houses remain occupied to the extent that the disposal process will not be adversely (Conllnued on Page 4) , China Lake Museum,Rocketeer Newspaper,Rocketeer 1970s,Rocketeer 1976,Rktr11.12.1976.pdf,Rktr11.12.1976.pdf Page 1, Rktr11.12.1976.pdf Page 1
