Respectfully yours, CLAUDE T. BOWERS Major General, NC NG The Adjutant General SECTION I GENERAL A. Definition The Army National Guard of the United States and the Air National Guard of the United States are integral parts and first line Reserve Components of the Army of the United States and the United States Air Force. The National Guard of the States has a dual and simultaneous status, is organized under State laws, and in time of national emergency may be called or ordered into active Federal service. All federally recognized units and elements of the Active National Guard and the personnel of the Inactive National Guard of the several States, District of Columbia and Puerto Rico together constitute the National Guard of the United States. B. Missions 1. Mission of the National Guard of the United States to the Federal Government: To provide a Reserve Component of the Army of the United States and the United States Air Force capable of immediate expansion to war strength, able to furnish units fit for service anywhere in the world, trained and equipped to: a. Defend critical areas of the United States against land, seaborne or airborne invasion. b. Assist in governing, mobilization and concentration of the remainder of the Reserve Forces. c. Participate by units in all types of operations, including the offensive, either in the United States or overseas. 2. Mission of the National Guard of the States : To provide sufficient organizations, so trained and equipped as to enable them to function efficiently at existing strength in the protection of life and property and the preservation of peace, order and public safety, under competent orders of State autho-rities. C. Composition of the North Carolina National Guard The North Carolina National Guard is composed of units of both the Army and the Air National Guard located in 99 cities and towns of North Carolina. Units and locations are listed in Section VIII (Army) and Section IX (Air). SECTION II ADMINISTRATION AND PERSONNEL Functionally, this Department is organized under the military concept of staff organization and includes the following principal staff positions: The Adjutant General: Assistant Adjutant General: Assistant Adjutant General, Air: US Property and Fiscal Officer: Chief, Personnel-Administration: Chief, Public Affairs: Chief, Operations-Training: State Maintenance Officer: Technician Personnel Officer: Military Academy Commandant: Federal Property Auditor: Engineer: State Budget and Fiscal Officer: Publications Officer: Major General Claude T. Bowers Brigadier General Roy E. Thompson Brigadier General William J. Payne Colonel Thomas B. Longest Colonel David W. Donovan Colonel Charles S. Manooch, Jr. Lt Colonel Samuel T. Arrington Colonel Charles D. Isom, Jr. Lt Colonel Neil J. Pait, Jr. Lt Colonel William P. Keeton, Jr. Lt Colonel Fred Harding, AFRes 1st Lieutenant Elbert McPhaul, Jr. Mr. Howard Cooke Mr. John Coates Excepting the Assistant Adjutant General, Air; the employees of the United States Property and Fiscal Office; the Technician Personnel Officer ; the employees of the State Maintenance Office ; the employees of the North Carolina Military Academy ; and the three Administrative Specialists, the staff and employees operat-ing under the direction of the Adjutant General are paid from State funds. The staff and employees operating under the direction of the Adjutant General consists of thirteen staff officers (reference preceding paragraph), six assistant staff officers (Assistant Operations and Training Officer, Assistant Engineer, Assistant Publications Officer, Assistant Personnel-Administration Officer, Enlisted Personnel Supervisor, Assistant to the Technician Per-sonnel Officer), one watchman (USPFO warehouse), five main-tenance men (three at NC Air National Guard—Charlotte, and one each at Butner and Wilmington), three security guards (NC Air National Guard—Charlotte), eighteen clerical assist-ants, and janitor-messenger (USPFO)—total forty-seven. After thirty-seven years of loyal and dedicated service as Chief Clerk and Assistant to the Adjutant General, Miss Evie W. Freeman was retired 31 December 1963. 8 SECTION III PUBLIC INFORMATION AND SPECIAL ACTIVITIES The North Carolina National Guard Public Affairs Section, under the direction of Colonel Charles S. Manooch, Jr., continued to stress to the citizenry of North Carolina, the importance of the dual mission of the North Carolina Army and Air National Guard and the vital part the Guard plays in today's defense structure. As in the past, the prestige and benefits of being a National Guardsman were the main themes in spotlighting the National Guard. Newspapers, radio and television were kept current, at all times, of the missions, needs and accomplishments of the Guard. Material and items presented to the television industry in-clude the "Little Guy" animated cartoons, on-the-spot coverage of various armory facilities and interviews with National Guard personnel. Various 10-, 20-, 30- and 60-second recruiting spots and the "Guard Session" series made up a large part of the radio industry's presentations. Approximately 85 radio stations in North Carolina programmed the 15-minute weekly "Guard Session" series and most all Tar Heel stations cooperated with the National Guard in special recruiting programs conducted by local units. Newspaper coverage of National Guard activities at the local and state levels reached an all time high. Promotions of Guardsmen and coverage of field training activities, closely followed by special feature stories (command changes and re-tirements) were the principle levels of coverage reported in the newspapers. Four hundred buses in eight major cities were posted with National Guard transit cards. Outdoor National Guard bill-boards were posted throughout the State's highway system. All types of printed recruiting materials, such as pamphlets, book-lets, posters, counter cards, bumper stickers and window decals, were furnished to all units of the North Carolina Army and Air National Guard. In addition, special displays, prepared at the Bureau level or State level, were made available to all units for specific events, such as county fairs, high school presentations, etc. All military vehicles loaned to the Post Office Department 10 Report of The Adjutant General during Christmas carried special banners with the caption, "Santa's Helpers, Your National Guard." Direct communication with business and industrial leaders, civic leaders and high schools was maintained by The Adjutant General's Department and all units to continue the excellent community relations already established. There was a notable in-crease in participation of community activities by members of the National Guard at the local level as well as the use of the National Guard armories for community and civic activities. In many areas, the National Guard Armory is the hub of the com-munity. Various representatives of the community, National Guard and National leaders participated in Armory Dedications with appropriate ceremonies. Special activities of the National Guard during January 1963 to June 1964 included Armed Forces Day, National Rifle and Pistol Matches, State Fair and the North Carolina National Guard Physical Fitness Program. Armed Forces Day, held on the third Saturday in May, con-sisted of Army and Air National Guard participation in open houses; parades and other ceremonies. Most units took part in varying degrees in observing Armed Forces Day activities throughout the State. The North Carolina National Guard again participated at the National Rifle and Pistol Matches held at Camp Perry, Ohio, which provided additional publicity and favorable comment in North Carolina. The 10-firing point National Guard Rifle Range at the State Fair proved again to be highly popular with the youngsters. The range, operated under National Rifle Association rules, drew much praise from parents and children alike. An estimated 8,000 people visited the Rifle Range and display which featured the "One Army" exhibit—"Soldier—Key to Landpower." The North Carolina National Guard continued to stress its Physical Fitness Program, a project originated by the Guard of this State in 1962 and accepted as the pilot program for the National Guard nationwide. The last test results of the program in North Carolina indicate that the Tar Heel Guardsmen are in better physical condition than at any time previously. One of the most outstanding special events to transpire dur-ing the period of this report was the "Joint Recruiting Pro-gram." The reorganization of the North Carolina Army National Guard caused a shortage of men in the Guard. In order to bring the Army National Guard up to the strength allocated, a special Report of The Adjutant General 11 request was forwarded to higher headquarters to ask the United States Army Recruiters throughout the State to refer men to the North Carolina Army National Guard for enlistment. With maximum speed, the request was approved and the North Carolina National Guard inaugurated another first—a "Joint Recruiting Program" between the active Army and the National Guard. Contact was made with the Commanding Officers of the United States Army Recruiting Main Stations in Charlotte and Raleigh. Upon presentation of the plan, their cooperation was assured. The Army Recruiters would receive the same points for referring a man to the National Guard who enlisted as they would for an active Army enlistment. The success of the pro-gram is shown in that during the first four months, 55% of the men referred by the active Army Recruiters were enlisted in the North Carolina Army National Guard. Another special event of the period was the visit of allied officers stationed at the John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Cen-ter at Fort Bragg. The Adjutant General's Department was contacted by the Liaison Officer of the Center to arrange a tour of Raleigh and the National Guard facilities. Two busloads of officers, representing Southeastern Asia countries and the Far East, on two different occasions, were hosted by The Adjutant General and his staff. Presentation to the Governor and the North Carolina Supreme Court Justices were the major high-lights of the tours that included visits to the new North Caro-lina Legislative Building, Museum of Art and the North Carolina National Guard Center. The most far-reaching special event was inaugurated in June 1964 when members of the news media of North Carolina (radio-television- newspapers) were invited to join The Adjutant Gen-eral on his inspection visit of the Special Forces at their two-week field training at Camp Williams, Utah. Six members of the news media from Charlotte, Durham, Raleigh and Wilmington and the mayors of Raleigh and Wilmington spent two days in the field observing the Special Forces of North Carolina and Utah prepare for their drop into rugged Utah Mountains. The entourage traveled to and from Utah in the North Carolina Air National Guard C-121 Super Constellation. The members of the news media were greatly impressed with the realism and high proficiency displayed by the officers and men of the Special Forces. The eye-witness view by members of the news media resulted in much radio, television and newspaper coverage of the Special Forces encampment. SECTION IV UNITED STATES PROPERTY AND FISCAL OFFICER The United States Property and Fiscal Officer is authorized the State under the provisions of Title 32, U. S. Code, Section 708. This officer is a member of the North Carolina National Guard on extended Active Duty. The United States Property and Fiscal Officer is responsible for the financial planning, obligating, accounting reporting and administrative control of all Federally appropriated funds allot-ted to the State for the support of Army and Air National Guard activities. In addition to his Comptroller functions, he is responsible for requisitioning, receipt, issue, shipment, dis-position and accounting for all supplies furnished and equipment loaned to the State by the Federal Government for the train-ing support of Federally recognized Army and Air National Guard units and activities in the State. A staff of fifty-nine (59) Federally paid technicians is provided to assist this officer in performing his duties. Colonel Thomas B. Longest has had this assignment for this State during the period covered by this report. A detailed report of the activities of the USPFO is outlined in an attachment to this report. 12 SECTION V NORTH CAROLINA ARMORY COMMISSION AND CONSTRUCTION The North Carolina Armory Commission, constituted under the authority of Article 23, Section 143-230, General Statutes of North Carolina, is charged with responsibility for the armory construction program including the building of new armories and the maintenance and modernization of the old. The Com-mission Membership consists of the Governor, the Adjutant General, the Attorney General and two Federally recognized officers of the North Carolina National Guard appointed by the Governor. The present appointed members are Brigadier General Ivan Hardesty and Colonel Daniel K. Edwards. State appropriations to pay a portion of the cost of armories built by Federal aid and maintenance of State-owned armories are made to this Commission. An audit of all income and dis-bursements of the Commission, together with a list of assets, is a part of this report. During the period 1 January 1963, through 30 June 1964, two new armories and a Combined Field Maintenance Shop were put under contract and construction started. Seven new armories at Elizabethtown, Forest City, Hamlet, Morehead City, Raleigh, Raleigh-Durham Airport, and Winston-Salem started in 1962, were completed and occupied in 1963. During this period, major repairs were made to a number of State-owned facilities. The following is a tabulation of new projects put under con-tract and repairs made during the period for which the report is made, with an indication of the source of the twenty-five per cent of the cost not paid by the Federal Government on new construction: 13 14 Report of The Adjutant General new armories SECTION VI STRENGTH OF THE NORTH CAROLINA NATIONAL GUARD The Army National Guard of North Carolina consisted of 835 commissioned officers, 75 warrant officers and 9915 enlisted men as of 31 December 1963; and 810 commissioned officers, 72 warrant officers and 10,011 enlisted men as of 30 June 1964, comprising the State Headquarters Headquarters Detachment; 205th Medical Detachment; Co C, 16th Special Forces Group; 123rd Signal Detachment (RM) ; and 30th Infantry Division, commanded by Major General Weston H. Willis of Jacksonville. The Air National Guard of North Carolina consisted of 136 commissioned officers and 870 airmen as of 31 December 1963; and 130 commissioned officers and 833 airmen as of 30 June 1964, and was headquartered at Douglas Municipal Airport, Charlotte, N. C, under the command of Brigadier General Wil-liam J. Payne. The North Carolina Air National Guard consist-ed of Headquarters of the NC Air National Guard; Head-quarters, 145th Air Transport Group (H) ; 145th USAF Dispen-sary (AT) ; 145th Material Squadron (AT) ; 145th Support Squadron (AT); 156th Aeromed Evacuation Flight; 156th Air Transport Squadron (H) ; 156th Weather Flight (Mobile) and the 263rd Communication Squadron (TT) at Badin. The grand total of organized militia of the State of North Carolina was 11,856 at the close of the period for which the report is made. 15 SECTION VII STATE SPECIAL DUTY During the period covered by this report, it was necessary to call elements of the National Guard into active State special service eight times to assist in various emergencies. On 4 April 1963, a forest fire occurred in Franklin County. Twelve officers and 110 enlisted men were ordered to State special duty to assist authorities. On the same date, four officers and 69 enlisted men were ordered to State special duty to fight a forest fire in Lee County. As a result of a forest fire in Scotland County on 5-6 April 1963, six officers and 48 enlist-ed men were ordered to State special duty. On four separate occasions elements of the North Carolina National Guard were ordered to state special duty to assist search parties for missing persons. 1. 4-6 October 1963—Randolph County—Three officers and 69 enlisted men 2. 16 October 1963—Duplin County—Four officers and 33 enlisted men 3. 19-20 October 1963—Granville County—Six officers and 83 enlisted men 4. 23 January 1964—Gates County—Eight officers and 112 enlisted men As a result of a drowning at Kerr Lake in April, 1964, heli-copters assisted in an area search for the body at intervals for several weeks. 16 SECTION VIII ARMY NATIONAL GUARD A. Reorganizations and Present Organization At the close of the last reporting period (31 December 1962), the Governor had rejected the latest reorganization plan sub-mitted by the Secretary of Defense. In late January 1963 an-other reorganization proposal was submitted by the Secretary. This plan involved the elimination of all Air Defense units (eleven—252nd Artillery Group) by conversion to infantry or other type units to be absorbed in the 30th Infantry Division. The 30th Infantry Division would be reorganized under the ROAD (Reorganized Army Division) concept and would include the Division Base with six infantry battalions and two armor battalions. The troop basis for the State consisted of: State Hq Hq Detachment at 100 percent strength 30th Infantry Division at 80 percent strength 205th Medical Detachment at 80 percent strength 123rd Signal Detachment at 80 percent strength Co C, 16th Special Forces Group, 1st Special Forces at 55 percent strength After considerable discussion, this proposal was accepted by the Governor and detailed planning was initiated. Several key factors were developed for guidance: 1. If possible, all communities in which a unit was located would retain a unit. 2. Minimum changes in branch to eliminate retraining. 3. Utilization of existing facilities in best possible manner. 4. Grouping of battalion size organizations in the same gen-eral geographic area to allow for better command supervision. 5. Placement of larger units in the more densely populated communities. The completed plans were implemented on 10 March 1963 and fulfilled the guidance criteria in an acceptable manner. This reorganization was accomplished using draft Tables of Organization. When the final Tables of Organization were pub-lished in February 1964, another reorganization was necessary 17 18 Report of The Adjutant General to conform to changes between the draft and final versions. This action was completed on 1 March 1964 and made only-minor changes throughout the 30th Infantry Division. The 30th Infantry Division is included among the Nation's highest priority (Immediate Reserve) units. In the establish-ment of this priority system and realignment of all Reserve Forces, the Secretary of Defense promised that the high priority units would receive increased financial support in the areas of administrative assistance, service school training and modern equipment. However, since implementation, such support has not been increased; in fact, sharp reductions have been made in these funding areas.

Annual Field Training Calendar Year 1963 The 30th Infantry Division (—) , under the command of Major General Weston H. Willis, performed Annual Field Training at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, during the month of June. All units spent the entire training period in the field. Tactical training at squad and platoon level was emphasized. All infan-try platoons conducted live fire exercises. One guardsman was killed in an accident prior to departure from home station. One brigade of the 30th Infantry Division, consisting of two armor battalions, one cavalry squadron, one medical and one maintenance company, and other supporting elements, trained at Fort Stewart, Georgia, during the month of June. Training included firing prescribed tank tables and unit tactical training. The 205th Medical Detachment and 123rd Signal Detach-ment were attached to the 30th Infantry Division for the training period. Company C, 16th Special Forces, performed AFT at Fort Bragg during the month of August. The first week of the training period was devoted to MOS training, and the second week to tactical training including tactical jumps. All training was supported by the Special Warfare Center. The division missile battalion trained at Fort Benning, Geor-gia, during the month of June. A comprehensive training pro-gram was followed which included firing the Honest John rocket. Headquarters and Headquarters Detachment, NCARNG, less 22 Report of The Adjutant General the Selective Service Section, was divided between Fort Bragg, Fort Benning, and Fort Stewart. The Selective Service Section attended the Selective Service Conference at Keesley Air Force Base, Biloxi, Mississippi. The Adjutant General feels that the training period was most effective. Calendar Year 1964 The 30th Infantry Division (—), under the command of Major General Weston H. Willis, performed Annual Field Train-ing at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, during the month of June. All units spent the entire training period in field bivouac. Training emphasis was at small unit level with particular at-tention to development of junior officers and noncommissioned officers. A considerable amount of night tactical training was accomplished. One brigade of the 30th Infantry Division consisting of two armor battalions, one cavalry squadron, one medical and one maintenance company, and other supporting elements began Annual Field Training at Fort Stewart, Georgia, on 27 June 1964, consequently, the training period will not be completed until 12 July 1964. The 205th Medical and 123rd Signal Detachments were at-tached to the 30th Infantry Division at Fort Bragg for the Annual Field Training period. Company C, 16th Special Forces, performed AFT at Camp Williams, Utah, with the 19th Special Forces Group, Utah Army National Guard. The training consisted of a Field Training Exercise which utilized the Special Forces in situations similar to those expected when actually employed in combat. The train-ing was realistic and effective. The unit was air transported to and from training site by the North Carolina Air National Guard. Headquarters and Headquarters Detachment, NCARNG, less Selective Service Section, was divided between Fort Bragg and Fort Stewart. The Selective Service Section performed on-the-job training in the offices of the North Carolina Selective Serv-ice System. All training was well planned, aggressively directed, and effectively accomplished. Report of The Adjutant General 23 C. Service and Army Area Schools Members of the Army National Guard, officers and enlisted men, continue to strive for professional improvement by at-tending the various courses of instruction offered at Army Service and Area Schools. During the calendar year 1963, 189 officers and 93 enlisted men took advantage of these schools and from 1 January 1964 until 30 June 1964, 54 officers and 37 enlisted men attended service schools for a total of 373 for the period. D. Reserve Enlistment Program—63 This program replaced RFA-55 (commonly called six-month training program). The principal difference in the two pro-grams is that a non-prior service individual upon enlistment agrees to enter active duty for training for a specified time which is required to complete training in the MOS to which he is assigned. The minimum period is four months. Generally, this program affords excellent training for the individual guardsman and relieves the unit of the responsibility for the major part of basic training. During calendar year 1963, 1778 enlisted men entered the program and from 1 January to 30 June 1964, 1282 enlisted men entered the program, for a total 18 months input of 3060. E. North Carolina Military Academy The North Carolina Military Academy was established in 1958 and is located at Fort Bragg, N. C, utilizing several build-ings held on license from the Department of Army. The primary mission of the Academy is to provide an Officer Candidate School for the development, training and commissioning of qualified applicants. A Non-commissioned Officer Leadership School is also pro-vided by the Academy. Lt. Colonel William P. Keeton, Jr., has served as Commandant since its organization. Thirty-seven members of Officers Candidate Class Number 5 were graduated and commissioned on 27 July 1963. The follow-ing is a list of graduates: 24 Report of The Adjutant General Richard E. Bailey Elton F. Kirby Bobby J. Barnes Robert B. Lancaster Floyd A. Bell Raeford E. Langdon Ronald R. Benson John S. Mills David B. Bunn Julius J. Preddy Hilton E. Clayborne Preston C. Sasser James W.

Heath Wilton M. Warner, Jr. Ralph G. Howell Joel C. Wetherington **Ronald M. Johnson * Honor Graduate ** Leadership Award Thirty-seven non-commissioned officers were graduated from NCO Leadership Class Number 4 on 27 July 1963. As of 30 June 1964, thirty-six members of Officers Candidate Class Number 6 remained enrolled. It is expected that all of these will be commissioned as Second Lieutenants upon comple-tion of annual field training in July 1964. F. Annual General Inspections General inspections of all units of the Army National Guard are conducted annually by the Inspector General's Department, Headquarters, Third United States Army, Fort McPherson, Georgia. The purpose of these inspections is to determine whether: a. Units are organized as prescribed and minimum strength requirements are being maintained. b. Officers and enlisted men possess the prescribed qualifica-tions. c. Organizations and members thereof are armed, equipped and uniformed with prescribed allowances. d. Training and instruction are in accordance with prescribed standards. Report of The Adjutant General 25 e. Amount of property in the hands of units, its condition and safe-guarding is as prescribed. f. Records are being maintained in accordance with the re-quirements of law and regulations. The results of these inspections during the biennium fall into three adjectival rating categories as follows: a. FISCAL Year 1963 SUPERIOR—16 EXCELLENT—73 SATISFACTORY—14 UNSATISFACTORY— 1 b. FISCAL Year 1964 SUPERIOR—14 EXCELLENT—68 SATISFACTORY��12 G. Maintenance As State Maintenance Officer, Colonel Charles D. Isom, Jr., has responsibility for supervising the maintenance and repair of all Federal equipment issued to the North Carolina Army National Guard. The functions are performed at the Combined Support Maintenance Shop, Butner, Major Arthur E. Ferrell, Supervisior; Army Aircraft Maintenance Shop, Raleigh-Durham Airport, 1st Lt. Harvey F. Shull, Supervisor; and twenty-one (21) Organizational Maintenance Shops located throughout the State, under the technical supervision of Major James M. Fletch-er, Organizational Maintenance Officer. The over-all standards of maintenance have been, and continue to be, outstanding. On 1 February 1964, the Office of the State Maintenance Officer was moved from Butner to offices in The Adjutant General's Department, N. C. National Guard Center, Raleigh. The annual Command Maintenance Management Inspections for FY 1963 and FY 1964 were conducted for The Adjutant General by the State Maintenance Officer, assisted by a Team Chief and technical personnel from the Combined Support Maintenance Shop. These inspections were conducted under the provisions of a revised Army Regulation 750-8. Units and activi-ties were rated either Satisfactory or Unsatisfactory in the categories of both Maintenance Management Operations and Condition of Material. All units and activities in the NC ARNG attained a rating of Satisfactory for both Fiscal Years. This 26 Report of The Adjutant General revised concept for the conduct of these CMMI's has accomp-lished the objective of causing commanders at all echelons to become more aware of their responsibilities for maintenance and care of their equipment. State Maintenance activities were awarded Superior ratings for both FY 1963 and FY 1964 Annual General Inspections (IG). The Chief, National Guard Bureau, in June 1963 and in August 1964, commended the State Maintenance Officer and all maintenance personnel under his supervision for these Superior ratings. In November 1962, Headquarters, Fort Bragg, requested that The Adjutant General authorize the Combined Support Main-tenance Shop to undertake a vehicle rebuild project for the Active Army because of the emergency situation created by the Cuban Crisis. The Maintenance activity, ably supported by the USPFO for NC, reconditioned seventy-seven (77) % ton Cargo trucks. By extra time worked at night and on weekends, the project was completed by 31 January 1963, ten days ahead of schedule. This accomplishment earned appreciation and com-mendation from Fort Bragg. H. North Carolina Army National Guard Technician Program As of the time of this report, the North Carolina Army Na-tional Guard is composed of over 10,000 citizen soldiers organ-ized in 147 different units and activities located in 99 different communities throughout the State. Often overlooked, or at least not apparent to the layman, is the vast amount of admin-istration, accounting, maintenance, logistics, and training func-tions which must be performed daily in order for the National Guard to fulfill its mission. To carry on the tremendous workload at unit and activity level, an allotment of full-time positions and funding support is made annually to this State by the National Guard Bureau under the provisions of Section 709, Title 32, U. S. Code. The program for this force of employees is known as the Army National Guard Technician Program. Even though these tech-nician employees' salaries are supported 100 per cent by the Federal funds, for all intent and purposes, they perform their duties and responsibilities as regular State employees. Respon-sibility for the employment, supervision, separation, establish-ment of work week, and fixing of pay rates, within the limits prescribed by National Guard Regulations, is delegated to the Report of The Adjutant General 27 State Adjutant General by the Chief, National Guard Bureau. Technician positions authorized and supported for the Ad-jutant General's Department include a Technician Personnel Officer, State Maintenance Officer, Organizational Maintenance Officer, two Staff Administrative Specialists, and one Publica-tions Clerk. The North Carolina National Guard Military Academy, lo-cated at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, is supported by a tech-nician Staff Assistant (OCS), and one OCS Clerk. Under present unit technician manning criteria, at least one technician is supported for each National Guard unit with an assigned strength of 50 or more Guardsmen. These individuals occupy positions known as Administrative Supply Technicians. Larger units such as battalions and higher type headquarters organizations are provided additional personnel based on the type of unit concerned. These positions include Staff Admin-istrative Assistants, Staff Training Assistants, and Staff Ad-ministrative Specialists. An Organizational Maintenance Shop, authorized for each battalion size unit within the State, is supported with from one to six General Mechanic Technician positions. In addition to the technician support provided at unit and organizational level, we have three major activities which re-quire much larger forces of full-time personnel. These are the Office and Warehouse of the U. S. Property And Fiscal Officer, the Combined Support Maintenance Shop, and the Army Avia-tion Maintenance Shop. Except for one State-paid auditor, the Office and Warehouse of the U. S. Property and Fiscal Officer for North Carolina, located at the North Carolina National Guard Center complex on Reedy Creek Road in Raleigh, is supported entirely by ARNG Technicians with a current authorization of 59 positions. These USPFO Technician positions include administrative, budget, accounting, supply, clerical, and warehousing personnel provided to assist the USPFO in discharging his responsibili-ties with respect to the receipt, storage, distribution, and ac-counting of all funds and property of the United States pro-vided by the Federal Government in support of the National Guard of the State. The North Carolina National Guard Combined Support Main-tenance Shop currently located in Butner, North Carolina, but which will be moved to new quarters at the National Guard 28 Report of The Adjutant General Center complex in Raleigh early in 1965, is supported by 63 ARNG Technicians. Field Maintenance Technicians include ad-ministrative, technical, craft, and trade positions required to perform the necessary field maintenance of Federal material and equipment provided for the National Guard units located throughout the State. The North Carolina National Guard Army Aviation Maintenance Shop, located at Raleigh-Durham Air-port, is currently supported by 16 ARNG Technicians. The technicians supported for this facility are responsible for the maintenance and repair of Army aircraft authorized for this State. ARNG Technicians employed at the end of each Fiscal Year and total salaries and wages paid those technicians during the biennium covered by this report were as follows. Fiscal Year 1963 SECTION IX AIR NATIONAL GUARD A. Organization The North Carolina Air National Guard is composed of four major elements reporting directly to and under the direction of Brigadier General William J. Payne, Assistant Adjutant General for Air of the State of North Carolina. These units are Hq, 145 Air Transport Group (H) ; Hq, North Carolina Air National Guard ; 263 Communications Squadron (TT) ; and the 156 Weather Flight. These units, with the exception of the 263 Communications Squadron (TT), are located at Douglas Munici-pal Airport, Charlotte, N. C. The 263 Communications Squadron (TT) is located at Badin, N. C. with a detachment at Wades-boro, N. C. Headquarters, 145 Air Transport Group (H), supervises all functions of the 145 Support Squadron (AT), 145 Materiel Squadron (AT), 145 USAF Dispensary (AT), 156 Air Trans-port Squadron (H) and the 156 Aeromedical Evacuation Flight. Supervision and direction of functions are in accordance with the most recent Group functional alignment whereby the author-ity and responsibility to command an Air National Guard unit is vested in one commander, the Group Commander. Although each unit within the Group is authorized a commander, these subordinate commanders are responsible to the Group Com-mander for certain functions in support of the Group mission. In this alignment, the Group Commander is authorized a Deputy Commander for Materiel, Deputy Commander for Operations, and a Support Squadron Commander as assistants for the supervision of all Group activities. Military Air Transport Serv-ice, USAF, is the major gaining command for the 145 Air Transport Group (H). In the event of an emergency, the Group and assigned elements would become a part of the World Wide MATS System with assignment to Eastern Transport Air Force, McGuire AFB, N. J. The Group has an "in place" M-Day assign-ment at the present time. The 263 Communications Squadron (TT) is composed of operations, maintenance, and self-supporting sections and is 29 30 Report of The Adjutant General assigned to the 251 Communications Group (Mobile), Ohio Air National Guard, Springfield, Ohio, for operational purposes and for supervision of training for preparation to perform Federal mission. The 251 Communications Group does not exercise com-mand over the 263 Communications Squadron (TT). This unit has an M-Day assignment to Air Force Communications Service. The 156 Weather Flight, Mobile, continued normal operations during this period without a major change in organizational structure. This unit has an M-Day assignment to Air Weather Service, Military Air Transport Service. The small staff authorized Hq, NC ANG, does not provide for adequate coverage of the various NC ANG functional areas. As in the past and in order to provide sufficient coverage, a composite staff consisting of officers assigned to other units has been utilized to provide this coverage. This arrangement has proven of great benefit and provides an air staff well versed in all functional areas for the Adjutant General, State of North Carolina. This structure has permitted decentralization of cer-tain Air National Guard functions to the office of the Assistant Adjutant General for Air, thus eliminating duplications. One of the major problem areas in the organizational struc-ture of NC ANG units during this period has been a constant change in strength requirements. During one period, we re-cruited "like mad." During another period, and not too much later, we were in the process of selecting officers for possible elimination from the program. We were heroes on 30 June 1963 when recruiting objective had been met and exceeded. The next day, 1 July 1963, we had too many people on board, thus neces-sitating a possible attrition program until desired strength level was attained. The strength problems are due to the chang-ing personnel authorizations (Unit Manning Documents) with-out sufficient increase in the authorized drill pay spaces. In this State, we are authorized 1235 military spaces in accordance with applicable Unit Manning Documents. The programmed (drill pay spaces) is only 962 which means we can fill approxi-mately 78% of authorized positions overall. The 145 Air Trans-port Group (H) can only fill 75.5% of authorized positions. In the entire Air National Guard, the full Unit Manning Document strength of 98,783 exceeds the authorized drill pay strength by 24%. The drill pay ceiling imposed has been the primary reason for reduction in overall airmen strength during the last twelve months. USAF Service School spaces have been reduced and Report of The Adjutant General 31 funds used to support drill pay spaces; therefore, spaces have not been available for non-prior service airmen. We must look to this source for replacements for experienced airmen com-pleting- service obligations. A great majority of airmen do not choose to continue affiliation once a service obligation is com-pleted. Every effort is made to retain airmen through explana-tion of present benefits. It appears that retention of trained personnel will continue as a problem until additional benfits be-come available. The need for a reenlistment bonus is more ap-parent daily. The major turnover of experienced personnel every six years is expensive and has an adverse effect on the opera-tional capability of Air National Guard units. As of 30 June 1964, the following NC ANG units are Federally recognized and actively participating in 48 unit training assemblies per fiscal year, field training, and other authorized training activities: 32 Report of The Adjutant General mission had been planned for the Group. This change was ex-pected early in this reporting period; however, it did not ma-terialize until early January 1964. Pending receipt of the authority authorizing a mission change and beginning 1 July 1963, an accelerated overwater training program was begun to qualify aircrews on overseas routes. Each aircrew member is required to make at least two overseas trips each year in order to become and remain operationally ready. Meeting these re-quirements, as well as other flying requirements, requires de-tailed planning and coordination on the part of the various functional areas. Primary missions of NC ANG units are as follows: Hq, NC ANG: Advises and assists the Adjutant General of the State in the administration, logistics, and training of Air National Guard units within the State, in performance of State requirements and in preparation of the Air National Guard for its Federal mission; and provides for the retention and con-tinued training of highly experienced Air National Guard per-sonnel. Hq, 145 Air Transport Group (H) : Provides command and staff supervision for assigned units in Flying Safety, Operations and Materiel functional areas; provides command support to assigned units in all other functional areas. 145 Support Sq (AT) : Operates and maintains an installation or facility in support of dispersed, enroute or on base mission, maintenance, medical and headquarters units. 145 Materiel Sq (AT) : Performs all aircraft maintenance, supply support and services required to maintain base units and aircraft in an operationally ready state. 145 USAF Dispensary (AT) : Provides medical support to mission squadron and allied units under field or combat con-ditions. 156 Air Transport Squadron (H) : Provides military air trans-portation of personnel and materiel for the armed forces and other governmental agencies as directed. 156 Aeromedical Evacuation Flight: Provides aeromedical evacuation crews for in-flight care of patients on transport air-craft assigned to each Air Transport Squadron, Heavy, at operating locations. Report of The Adjutant General 33 156 Weather Flight, Mobile: Provides weather forecasting and observing services as required. 263 Communications Squadron (TT) : The peacetime mission of the Communications Squadron (Tributary Teams) is to at-tain and maintain an optimum effective capability to carry out roles and tasks assigned in Gaining Command plans for use in national emergency. C. Reorganizations and Conversions The mission change from aeromedical transport to air trans-port referred to above, became effective on 25 January 1964. Concurrent with the mission change, a major organizational realignment was authorized necessitating reassignment of a majority of personnel. In addition, units were withdrawn or deactivated and new units activated. It was necessary to present the new units for Federal Recognition Inspection as of 25 January 1964. Following is a listing of units authorized imme-diately prior to realignment and authorizations effective as of 25 January 1964 and as of this date: Units Auth Prior to 25 Jan 64 Units Auth as of 25 Jan 64 HQ, NC ANG HQ, NC ANG Hq, 145 Aeromed Trnsp Gp Hq, 145 Air Trnsp Gp (H) 145 Air Base Sq (AM) 145 Spt Sq (AT) 145 Consol Acft Maint Sq (AM) 145 Mat Sq (AT) 145 USAF Disp (AM) 145 USAF Disp (AT) 156 Aeromed Trnsp Sq 156 Air Trnsp Sq (H) 156 Wea Fit (F&O) 156 AMEF 263 Comm Sq (TT) *156 Wea Fit (F&O) 263 Comm Sq (TT) * Redesignated effective 1 April 1964 With this reorganization and concurrent mission change, we were faced with a change in the composition of an aircrew. Due to the global airlift capability with resultant worldwide opera-tions, navigators were authorized as a part of an aircrew for the first time in the history of the North Carolina Air National Guard. Realizing this requirement, the National Guard Bureau was requested to authorize the procurement of navigators ap-proximately six months prior to the mission change. Authority was granted and qualified navigators were on board at time of mission change. We were not so fortunate in another area. We had been advised that Flight Attendants authorized immediately 34 Report of The Adjutant General prior to the reorganization and mission change would continue as an authorization in the new unit manning documents. Upon receipt of the documents, the Flight Attendant authorization had been changed to Loadmasters. It was then necessary to re-train assigned Flight Attendants as Loadmasters. The retraining program has been more successful than anticipated. Nine opera-tionally ready Flight Attendants were available by the end of this reporting period. Due to the primary air transport mission, the flight nurses and aeromedical evacuation specialists were removed from the Air Transport Squadron and assigned to the 156 Aeromedical Evacuation Flight, organized on 25 January 1964. The flying unit presently has a dual mission in reverse of the former mis-sion. The current primary mission, as stated above, is air trans-port mission with a secondary mission of aeromedical transport. Sixteen crews are authorized to perform these missions ; how-ever, all positions cannot be filled due to manning limitations imposed by the National Guard Bureau based on drill pay spaces authorized by the Congress and the Office of the Secre-tary of Defense. Aircrew compositions authorized for perform-ance of types of missions indicated are as follows : Air Transport Aeromedical Transport 2—Pilots 1—Flight Nurse 1—Navigator 2—Flight Engineers 2—Flight Engineers 2—Aeromed Evac Specialists 1—Loadmaster 1—Navigator (when required) 2—Pilots The reorganization and mission change has not materially affected the progress of the flying unit toward operational readi-ness and capability to perform assigned missions. The aircrew members continue to improve their capabilities to operate the C-121 aircraft. Eleven aircrews have been formed and nine complete air transport or aeromedical transport aircrews are fully operationally ready. The nine aircrews are capable of global airlift as the situation may demand. Under emergency condi-tions, eleven aircrews would be available to perform assigned missions throughout the world. Two years experience in the C-121 aircraft have now been gained. This experience is beneficial to the pilots who fly the aircraft and to the maintenance personnel responsible for in-suring that aircraft are maintained in first class condition. An average of 338 hours per month has been flown in these air- Report of The Adjutant General 35 craft during this period. The Group has flown more each and every month than any of the seven Air National Guard C-121 Groups. It is noteworthy that periodic inspection manhours have been reduced from 1713 direct manhours in September 1963 to 1522.5 manhours per inspection as of 30 June 1964. This in-creased efficiency is also true in data regarding "post flight" inspections. These achievements have been possible by excellent management principles applied by the Base Maintenance Officer. The aircraft in commission rate has remained high and exceed-ed the rate normally expected. The flying unit continued its accident free record during this period and has been given special recognition by the National Guard Bureau and the gaining command. In August 1963, the NC ANG completed 5 years since the last major accident, and, on 30 June 1964, had accumulated 26,095 flying hours without a major accident. This is all the more remarkable when con-sideration is given to the fact that this encompassed 4 major aircraft conversions from the F-86E jet Day fighter to the F-86L All Weather jet interceptor to two very different versions of the twin reciprocating engine C-119 to the 4 engined C-121C and G. The 263 Communications Squadron (TT) has not experienced a reorganization during this period. This unit has an excellent record and is highly regarded by the National Guard Bureau and the gaining command. The 156 Weather Flight, Mobile, was reorganized during this period and redesignated; however, these actions did not change the function of the unit to a great extent. For the first time in its history, the unit has filled all authorized forecaster positions. The unit's effectiveness showed an excellent increase during this period. D. Construction. Most of the construction was in the nature of repairs, re-paving, and overlaying of asphalt taxi areas and aircraft park-ing apron at Charlotte, and the vehicle parking area at Badin. These totaled $47,071.00. Relocation of two power lines totaled $6,741.00, while renovation, repairs, replacement, etc., of por-tions of the Dining Hall heating and air conditioning systems, and tie-down anchors for the C-121 aircraft accounted for $9,110.00. 36 Report of The Adjutant General The largest purchase and hire project was the construction of a fine class-room building for the C-121 Mobile Training De-tachment from Air Training Command which is stationed here at Charlotte and provides initial and refresher instruction on all C-121 systems, etc., for aircrews and maintenance personnel from all seven ANG C-121 groups, a Regular Air Force Special Air Missions C-121 Squadron, and a few miscellaneous crew members from USAF, USN, etc., from time to time. This structure was designed, engineered, and constructed by our Base Civil Engineer at a cost of $5.42 per square foot for an 8 room brick veneered masonry building, insulated through-out, heated and air conditioned, with a 20 year built-up roof. In addition, we realized a concrete floored basement storage area of some 2,200 square feet as a bonus. This building was costed out by Hq, USAF, engineers at $110,000.00, while our cost was $25,000.00. A special letter of commendation was presented to the Base Civil Engineer by the Assistant Chief, National Guard Bureau, Air, for this outstanding achievement. Plans and specifications were prepared, and bids opened on the rebuilding of a major taxiway, of which the ANG is the prime user, in June 1964. Funds were not immediately available, so the contract was signed early in July for $139,453.00. Contract in the amount of $174,184 was awarded for the re-moval of two C-121 nose dock hangars from Charleston AFB, S. C, to the ANG east parking apron at Douglas. This project has been in the mill for two years, and is scheduled to be com-pleted in January 1965. Designs, plans and specifications for the addition of dining hall and classroom wing to the facility at Badin, N. C, were completed and approved, and the project incorporated as a line item in the FY 1965 military construction program. It is an-ticipated that this construction will be completed during CY 1965. E. Field Training ANGR 50-03 authorizes the performance of a fifteen day active duty for training by two methods. Field training may be performed by a unit during fifteen continuous days or under the year round concept. The 263 Communications Squadron (TT) and the 156 Weather Flight, Mobile, use the 15 con-tinuous days system. The 145 Air Transport Group uses the "year round" concept. This system was used during Fiscal Year Report of The Adjutant General 37 1963 and 1964. The year round plan permits the spread of available field training manpower throughout the year in direct support of daily mission support requirements. The commander is provided complete flexibility to schedule available mandays in all of the various categories. When effectively used, this plan can be of much value in improving the overall capability of individuals. Detailed scheduling is most important if the objec-tives of this plan are met. Training under the year round con-cept whereby individual training is stressed necessitates com-pletion of unit training, general military training, and other training requirements during unit training assemblies. During Fiscal Year 1964, one primary field training period was established during each quarter for personnel other than rated personnel and others on flying status. An effort was made to schedule approximately 25% of the personnel for training during each of the primary periods in order to spread available field training mandays throughout the fiscal year to support mission requirements. In instances where personnel could not attend a primary period, they were scheduled for other periods when services could be used. A majority of rated personnel and other personnel on flying status completed field training requirements during the first six months of Fiscal Year 1964. This action was taken in order to qualify personnel on overseas routes at the earliest possible date, thereby increasing the operational readiness status of personnel in this category. Trips were scheduled to the Far East and to Europe and aircrews operated over routes prescribed for Military Air Transport Service. Flight nurses and medical technicians who had not previously performed 15 days train-ing as medical crew members aboard aeromedical transport air-craft of the active Air Force transporting sick and injured patients of the armed forces throughout the continental United States participated in this training. Others performed the same duty airlifting patients from overseas bases to the United States. The rest flew on the overseas training mission with our aircraft. The year round type of field training is quite valuable and has been effectively used by our flying units. Continuous evalua-tion is necessary to insure that full training benefits are realized. A program of this type is necessary in order for flying person-nel to meet overwater training and qualification requirements. The value to other personnel must be based on training benefits 38 Report of The Adjutant General realized and contributions to the overall mission. These are the most important items for unit commanders to consider in pre-paring a field training schedule. Personal convenience must be the least important item in the scheduling. The 263 Communications Squadron (TT) participated in Ex-ercise "Long Haul II" during Fiscal Year 1964. Squadron Head-quarters was located at Fort Campbell, Kentucky, with tributary-teams located at Blytheville AFB, Arkansas, McGhee-Tyson MAP, Knoxville, Tennessee and Dobbins AFB, Georgia. This arrangement created many travel and logistics problems ; how-ever, through thorough planning and strict supervision by the Squadron Commander, the field training was completed without incident or serious problem areas. This unit has an excellent record and has a history of being operational before other units of the Group to which assigned. F. Schools USAF and other service technical schools listed in the USAF Formal Schools Catalog are available to Air National Guard members. Advanced and lateral courses have not been used to a great extent during this period since mission equipment has not been changed during this period. Non-prior service personnel enlisting in the Air National Guard are required to complete a minimum of four months active duty for training as a condition of enlistment and in order to become basically qualified in duty Air Force speciality. Due to a requirement that period of active duty begin within 120 days after enlistment, an individual cannot be enlisted until an Air Force service school space has been made available by the National Guard Bureau. The four months active duty requirement may be completed by attending USAF Basic Mili-tary Training for eight weeks (scheduled to be changed to six weeks in October 1964) and returning to home station for OJT at the three level until four months active duty for training is completed, attending USAF Basic and USAF Technical School and returning to home station for five level OJT until active duty is completed or attending Basic Military Training and USAF Service School where duration is four or more months. After the initial active duty training period, airman receives training toward a higher skill level through an effective on-the-job training program. Each airman is tested as phases of the training program are completed and tested by the Air Force Report of The Adjutant General 39 Test Control Officer prior to being awarded a higher level Air Force Speciality. USAF Service School spaces have been extremely limited during this period. For this reason, North Carolina Air National Guard units have experienced a decrease in assigned strength. The manpower limitations (drill pay ceiling referred to in an-other part of this report) have a direct effect on the number of service school spaces made available by the National Guard Bureau. As the Air National Guard neared the 75,000 drill pay ceiling, it was noted that an excess number of non-rated officers existed in comparison with the number of rated officers on aboard. It appeared that it would be necessary to separate a number of non-rated officers ; however, a decision was made to reduce the number of non-prior service enlistments by reducing the number of non-prior service school spaces. This action per-mitted units to retain non-rated officers scheduled for elimina-tion. The curtailment of USAF Service School spaces for non-prior service airmen provided the necessary funds for the fi-nancial support of the non-rated officers. We are faced with a numbers game until the drill pay ceiling is raised. Whether a problem occurs in training, manpower, fly-ing or any other functional area, the drill pay ceiling is a domi-nant factor. We must look to an increase in this ceiling from the present 75,000 to an authorization which will assure a drill pay ceiling not less than 90% of unit manning document strength. This would amount to some 90,000 drill pay spaces throughout the Air National Guard. G. Air Technician Program Air Technician management and supervisory functions have been decentralized under the provisions of ANGR 40-01 and are performed under the direction of the Base Detachment Com-mander, North Carolina Air National Guard, Charlotte, N. C. In this capacity, the Base Detachment Commander directs the activities of the Air Technician Detachment, Charlotte, N. C, and the Air Technician Detachment, 263 Communications Squad-ron (TT), Badin, N. C. Air Technicians perform those functions and duties which cannot be performed by Air National Guard members while in a military status. A supplement to ANGR 40-01 has been issued and this direc-tive establishes policies and procedures relating to administra-tion of the Air Technician Detachment. Procedures and policies 40 Report of The Adjutant General contained in the supplement are based on Air Force directives insofar as possible. A special effort was made to assure avail-ability of adequate documentation thereby establishing approved audit trails. A noteworthy accomplishment was the mechaniza-tion of the civilian payroll and civilian time and attendance reporting. Some of the manual systems are being maintained while mechanization is on trial basis. This is especially true in the time and attendance reporting area. Manual leave records are being maintained pending receipt of additional information from the National Guard Bureau. This constitutes a duplication of effort; however, the extra effort will be worthwhile since detailed internal operating instructions have not been issued by the National Guard Bureau. The manpower authorizations for the Detachment at Char-lotte, N. C. are based on certain military factors and the success of military units in meeting established goals. One of the most important factors is assigned pilot strength. Pilot strength has been a problem area throughout the Air National Guard. The Air National Guard flying unit at Charlotte, N. C. has maintain-ed pilot strength at near the National Guard Bureau pro-grammed level throughout this period. National Guard Bureau programs Air Technicians for "under 37 pilots" or "over 37 pilots." We have remained in the latter category. During this period, the National Guard Bureau established a Standard Manning Document System. This standard document is intended to authorize identical manpower spaces to units possessing similar aircraft. This system cannot be followed in all situations due to difference in support responsibilities. The standard documents are designed to show requirements for the basic manning of an Air Technican Detachment. Due to man-power limitations, and primarily due to overall pilot shortages, the National Guard Bureau has not been in a position to fund for authorized manpower spaces. The requirements or manpower spaces shown on the most recent Air Technician Manning Document indicate an authoriza-tion of 151 spaces for the flying base; however, we are limited to a monthly average of 135 employees during the Fiscal Year. The Base Detachment Commander is authorized to fill those positions which, in his opinion, are most essential to the per-formance of the primary mission of the flying base. The present manning policy creates an austere situation. In some instances, it has been necessary to curtail employment in some areas in Report of The Adjutant General 41 order to employ personnel essential to the successful accomp-lishment of the flying mission. The Air Technician Detachment can always use additional manpower. The year round concept of field training and local OJT program for non-prior service personnel completing active duty for training requirements have provided some relief. It is hoped that additional permanent Air Technician positions will be made available as overall pilot strength increases and the manpower ceiling (drill pay spaces) is raised. The Air Technician manning standard applicable to the 263 Communications Squadron (TT) indicates a requirement for 13 employees. Due to limitations in man-years authorized for the State, this unit is permitted 11 permanent employees. In addi-tion, special provisions for employment of temporary employees have been effectively used by this unit. The Air Technicians are a force of highly skilled personnel and the "backbone" of the Air National Guard program. The technicians have continued their leadership role in making our Air National Guard units a most valuable part of the Air Force. The continuing effort on the part of the National Guard Bureau and the National Guard Association of the United States to secure a well deserved retirement program is indicative of high level regard for this force. H. Air Advisors The major air commands designated as gaining commands for Air National Guard units have continued to provide qualified personnel to supervise the trainings in preparation for perform-ance of the Federal mission. When the North Carolina Air Na-tional Guard flying unit experienced a mission change, Hq, MATS, withdrew manpower spaces which were supporting the medical aspects of the aeromedical transport mission. As a re-sult of this policy, the flight nurse and medical service officer advisors were reassigned. Advisor functions in these areas are now performed by officers assigned to Air National Guard Transport Wings. With the mission change, it was necessary to provide advisor functions in the navigator career area. A fully qualified navigator was assigned and this officer has given valu-able assistance to the navigator training and qualification pro-gram. Three officers and six airmen, assigned to Detachment 33, EASTAF, are available to perform air advisor functions. The officers assigned and functional responsibilities are as follows: 42 Report of The Adjutant General Rank, Name, AFSN Function Lt Col Jack H. Sisson, 33584A Senior Air Force Advisor Lt Col William H. Byron, Jr., Navigator Advisor A0669194 Major Erick R. Ahokas, A02079228 Pilot/ Simulator Advisor The Air Force Advisor to the 263 Communications Squadron (TT) is Major Arthur S. Gustafson, A0591153. He was assigned to advisor duty by the major gaining command, Air Force Communications Service and is under the supervision of the intermediate gaining command, Hq, Central Communications Region, Tinker AFB, Oklahoma. Major Gustafson has been on duty with the 263 Communications Squadron (TT) since May 1961. He is a fully qualified communications officer and has at-tended formal service schools providing instruction in communi-cation operations and maintenance. He is assisted by a technical assistant, well qualified in the communication operations career area. One airman is assigned to the 156 Weather Flight, Mobile, as Technical Advisor. This airman has provided outstanding assist-ance to the Commander, 156 Weather Flight, Mobile, as well as providing daily support to the flying base. SECTION X SIMPLIFIED FISCAL STATEMENT The financial report of the operations of the Department is made on the fiscal year basis. This report is being made to cover the Fiscal Years of 1962-1963 and 1963-1964. The audited reports for the fiscal years ending June 30, 1962, and June 30, 1963, are incorporated in this report to the Governor. The Fiscal Year 1963-1964 reports have not been audited and will be shown in the next Report of The Adjutant General. The following figures are a consolidation of the expenses of The Adjutant General's Department and the North Carolina Armory Commission for the period July 1, 1962, thru June 30, 1964. For the sake of simplicity, the items have been rounded out to the nearest dollar, and, therefore, to that extent are inexact. Attention is directed to the fact that in the operation of The Adjutant General's Department we had the benefit of $156,340.00 Federal contributions during this period.

Exhibit "A" and its supporting schedules for the one year report of the activity of the Maintenance Fund of the Department and are self-explana-tory. Exhibit "B" and its supporting schedule reports the activity of the Main-tenance Fund of the North Carolina Armory Commission. In accordance with G. S. 143-236.1, the unexpended balance remaining in the Maintenance Fund of the Commission (Code 12023) is transferred at the close of the fiscal year to Code 65111, the Permanent Improvement Fund of 1951. At June 30, 1962 $23,681.52 was transferred. Exhibit "C" reports the activity of the Permanent Improvement Fund of 1951 (Code 65111). This fund is provided for the purpose of constructing and helping to maintain certain armories for which the Department is re-sponsible. It will be noted that in the year ended June 30, 1962 $14,982.54 was realized from the sale of timber at Camp Butner. This is the first such revenue since 1957 but more is expected in the future. Exhibit "D" and its supporting schedule reports the activity of the Per-manent Improvement Fund of 1957 (Code 65706). This fund is provided for the purpose of constructing new armories. The Federal Government supplies certain funds for this purpose, and city and county organizations also assist. Since the percentage of Federal, City and County, and State Funds available differ as to each location, it was necessary to set up detail records by contract, for each armory constructed. For year ended June 30, 1962 Exhibit "E" is a report of Capital Improve-ment Fund of 1961, Code 66120, which reports receipts and expenditures in connection with the construction of the new Military Center on Reedy Creek Park Road, Raleigh. It is expected that this area will be ready for full occupancy the latter part of 1964. Exhibit "F" for year ended June 30, 1962 is a Statement of Capital Assets. Report of The Adjutant General 45 General All receipts of record were found to be deposited with the State Treasurer. We examined a representative number of invoices, vouchers, payrolls, checks and other data in support of expenditures. They were found in good order and properly classified. We wish to express to the General and his staff our appreciation for the courtesies and cooperation extended us during this assignment. Respectfully submitted, HENRY L.

PROPERTY AND FISCAL OFFICER FISCAL YEARS 1963 AND 1964 25 September 1964 TO: The Adjutant General, State of North Carolina GENERAL INFORMATION The following report on the operation of activities of the USPFO for North Carolina for Fiscal Years 1963 and 1964, beginning 1 July 1962 and ending 30 June 1964, is respectfully submitted. The USPFO is authorized this State under the provisions of Title 32, U. S. Code, Section 708. The required duties of the position are prescribed in Federal Statutes which are implemented by the Secretary of the Army and the Secretary of the Air Force by means of Army and Air Force Regu-lations, National Guard Bureau Regulations and other directives. In broad terms, he is responsible for the financial planning, obligating, accounting, reporting and administrative control of all Federally appropriated funds allotted to the State for the support of Army and Air National Guard ac-tivities. In addition to his Comptroller functions, he is responsible for requisitioning, receipt, issue, shipment, disposition and accounting for all supplies furnished and equipment loaned to the State by the Federal Gov-ernment for the training support of Federally recognized Army and Air National Guard units and activities in the State. The USPFO is also specifi-cally designated by the National Guard Bureau as the Purchasing and Con-tracting Officer and the Transportation Officer for the National Guard of this State. Annex B to this report contains a breakdown of the functions of the Divisions and Offices of this Activity in the two years covered by the report. To assist the USPFO in carrying out his responsibilities, this office is authorized a total of fifty-nine (59) technician employees under the Army Technician Program. In March 1964, the manning structure for these tech-nician employees was reorganized in accordance with functional criteria developed by the National Guard Bureau on a nationwide basis. Under the Air National Guard Technician Program, technicians are provided for this purpose at North Carolina Air National Guard activities located at Douglas Municipal Airport, Charlotte, N. C. Colonel Thomas B. Longest, who was appointed to the position effective 1 May 1959, served as USPFO for the State during the period of this re-port. FACILITIES The present USPFO Office and Warehouse building, Reedy Creek Road, Raleigh, N. C, was completed in December 1962. The Building was con-structed with 100% Federal Funds except for the site and grading which were furnished from State Funds. All activities of the USPFO, previously operating at three different locations, were moved into this new building 76 Report of The Adjutant General in the latter part of December 1962. The operation of all activities in one location has increased operational efficiency and service to the units and organizations of the Guard. In May 1964, the Office of the USPFO of this Department was one of the eight USPFO offices selected nationwide by the National Guard Bureau in which a complete IBM Automatic Data Processing System will be installed this year. This ADPE will require addi-tional floor space, air conditioning and humidity control in the present Machine Room of the USPFO building. Contracts in the amount of $4,461.00 (100% Federal Funds) have been approved to provide the additional facili-ties required for this new activity. It is believed the ADPE installation will be completed and operational on or about 1 October 1964 to provide Auto-matic Machine Accounting for the Office of the USPFO and other staff sections of the Department. LOGISTICS The total cost value of property assigned to this State for use by the Army National Guard as of 30 June 1964 was $40,000,000.00. (This includes items earmarked in FTECS with a total cost value of $11,500,000.00). The total cost value of property assigned to the State for the Air National Guard as of 30 June 1964 was $17,132,218.00. During the period of this report continuous emphasis has been placed on all phases of logistical man-agement to insure proper utilization of assets, utilization of available fund-ing, equal distribution of equipment, development of realistic requirements and improvement of our service to the using units. The limited funding available for supplies and equipment has again precluded the procurement of many essential items. On 1 March 1963, the 30th Infantry Division was reorganized from ROCID TO ROAD Concept requiring redistribution of equipment which was completed in approximately 120 days. On 10 March 1964, a minor reorganization and realignment of the 30th Infantry Division made it necessary to redistribute a number of major items of equipment. This was accomplished in approximately 60 days. A Self Service Supply Center was established 1 July 1963 providing a source for procurement of expendable items by the using units with a minimum of documentation. Dur-ing this period a number of new type items of clothing and equipment were procured and issued to include Shoes, Low-Quarter Black, Garrison Cap, New-Type Load Carrying equipment and specialized clothing and equip-ment for Special Forces unit. In addition, considerable improvement was made in the status of our Major items of heavy equipment and a listing of these is contained in Annex D to this report. A new Equipment Status Reporting System was installed 1 July 1963 utilizing IBM Equipment which provides information as to equipment authorization by TOE, OEG, COA and total on hand at each unit of the Army National Guard. This system also provides information as to the "on hand" substitute equipment by Tech-nical Service in the State. The uniform procedures utilized by the Depart-ment of the Army (MILSTRIP) for requisitioning and accounting for sup-plies was installed 1 July 1962 using IBM and NCR equipment. An addi-tional system to reduce property accounting and paperwork was initiated at the close of FY 1964 which is designated as "SALTI" (Summary Ac-counting for Low-Dollar Turn-over Items). In this system, units and Report of The Adjutant General 77 activities forward a 'shopping list' to the USPFO Warehouse and are fur-nished the items without formal accountability. CONTRACTS AND CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS The Non-Armory construction projects completed for the Army National Guard during the period of this report consisted of parking area and access road work at Fort Bragg and construction of the USPFO Office and Ware-house at Raleigh. This new building is located on Reedy Creek Road and was constructed with 100% Federal Funds at a total cost of $335,721.00 which did not include the site and grading furnished from State funds. Non-Armory construction contracts in the amount of $401,542.00 (100% Federal funds) were awarded 12 July 1963 for the construction of a new Combined Support Maintenance Shop on Reedy Creek Road, Raleigh, N. C, to replace outmoded facilities now used at Butner, N. C, which were con-structed in World War II. This new facility will be completed in FY 1965. Extensive repair and construction projects were completed at Charlotte, N. C, for the N. C. Air National Guard during the period of this report. At this time, the dismantling of two aircraft maintenance docks, located at Charleston, S. C, and the moving of such materials to the Air National Guard facility at Charlotte is being accomplished. The structures will be re-erected to provide additional maintenance facilities for C121 Aircraft. This relocation project will cost $172,345.00 using 100% Federal funds. Annex C to this report contains a listing of all Non-Armory projects com-pleted during this reporting period arranged according to locations. COMPTROLLER Total Federal Funds including pay for Inactive Duty Training were expended for support of the National Guard in this State in the amount of $10,678,690.20 during FY 1963, and $11,101,993.83 during FY 1964. A break-down of these expenditures is included in Annex A to this report. Effective 1 July 1962, Army and Air National Guard civilian technicians were en-rolled under the N. C. State Employees Retirement System with the em-ployers share of cost being paid jointly from Federal and State funds. Financial Inventory Accounting by Journal Accounting was eliminated as of 30 June 1964 and future Supply Management Reports will be computed from information on the Stock Record Cards. INSPECTIONS The activities of the USPFO were inspected once each Fiscal Year by the Third U. S. Army Inspector General and a rating of Superior was re-ceived on each of these inspections. The vehicles and equipment used by the USPFO Warehouse were in-spected by Command Maintenance Inspection Teams each Fiscal Year and there were no reportable deficiencies on either of these inspections. The Office of the Inspector General, Western Transport Air Force, con-ducted a general inspection of Headquarters, N. C. Air National Guard, Charlotte, N. C, during the period 18-20 June 1963. No ratings are given 78 Report of The Adjutant General on inspections conducted by regular Air Force personnel; however, the report noted that accounts maintained by the Assistant USPFO's for this office were adequately maintained. In addition to the inspections and audits by other agencies or higher headquarters, audit personnel of this office conducted thirteen (13) internal reviews of various USPFO functions in the period covered by this report to check and evaluate financial and internal controls. APPRECIATION I wish to express my appreciation to the personnel of this Office who have supported me wholeheartedly and loyally in this assignment and with-out whose help and cooperation the Office could not have functioned as efficiently as it has or attained the ratings on our inspections as outlined above. I would also like to acknowledge the helpful advice and splendid cooperation and assistance provided by Major General Claude T. Bowers, The Adjutant General, and Brigadier Generals William J. Payne and Roy E. Thompson, The Assistant Adjutants General for Air and Army, respec-tively. In addition, the support and assistance rendered by the other mem-bers of The Adjutant General's Department and all units and activities of the North Carolina National Guard has been outstanding and for this we are most grateful. We pledge our continued efforts toward all progress pos-sible in the years ahead and will continually strive to help produce in our State the best Army and Air National Guard units in our Nation.

Respectfully yours, CLAUDE T. BOWERS Major General, NC NG The Adjutant General SECTION I GENERAL A. Definition The Army National Guard of the United States and the Air National Guard of the United States are integral parts and first line Reserve Components of the Army of the United States and the United States Air Force. The National Guard of the States has a dual and simultaneous status, is organized under State laws, and in time of national emergency may be called or ordered into active Federal service. All federally recognized units and elements of the Active National Guard and the personnel of the Inactive National Guard of the several States, District of Columbia and Puerto Rico together constitute the National Guard of the United States. B. Missions 1. Mission of the National Guard of the United States to the Federal Government: To provide a Reserve Component of the Army of the United States and the United States Air Force capable of immediate expansion to war strength, able to furnish units fit for service anywhere in the world, trained and equipped to: a. Defend critical areas of the United States against land, seaborne or airborne invasion. b. Assist in governing, mobilization and concentration of the remainder of the Reserve Forces. c. Participate by units in all types of operations, including the offensive, either in the United States or overseas. 2. Mission of the National Guard of the States : To provide sufficient organizations, so trained and equipped as to enable them to function efficiently at existing strength in the protection of life and property and the preservation of peace, order and public safety, under competent orders of State autho-rities. C. Composition of the North Carolina National Guard The North Carolina National Guard is composed of units of both the Army and the Air National Guard located in 99 cities and towns of North Carolina. Units and locations are listed in Section VIII (Army) and Section IX (Air). SECTION II ADMINISTRATION AND PERSONNEL Functionally, this Department is organized under the military concept of staff organization and includes the following principal staff positions: The Adjutant General: Assistant Adjutant General: Assistant Adjutant General, Air: US Property and Fiscal Officer: Chief, Personnel-Administration: Chief, Public Affairs: Chief, Operations-Training: State Maintenance Officer: Technician Personnel Officer: Military Academy Commandant: Federal Property Auditor: Engineer: State Budget and Fiscal Officer: Publications Officer: Major General Claude T. Bowers Brigadier General Roy E. Thompson Brigadier General William J. Payne Colonel Thomas B. Longest Colonel David W. Donovan Colonel Charles S. Manooch, Jr. Lt Colonel Samuel T. Arrington Colonel Charles D. Isom, Jr. Lt Colonel Neil J. Pait, Jr. Lt Colonel William P. Keeton, Jr. Lt Colonel Fred Harding, AFRes 1st Lieutenant Elbert McPhaul, Jr. Mr. Howard Cooke Mr. John Coates Excepting the Assistant Adjutant General, Air; the employees of the United States Property and Fiscal Office; the Technician Personnel Officer ; the employees of the State Maintenance Office ; the employees of the North Carolina Military Academy ; and the three Administrative Specialists, the staff and employees operat-ing under the direction of the Adjutant General are paid from State funds. The staff and employees operating under the direction of the Adjutant General consists of thirteen staff officers (reference preceding paragraph), six assistant staff officers (Assistant Operations and Training Officer, Assistant Engineer, Assistant Publications Officer, Assistant Personnel-Administration Officer, Enlisted Personnel Supervisor, Assistant to the Technician Per-sonnel Officer), one watchman (USPFO warehouse), five main-tenance men (three at NC Air National Guard—Charlotte, and one each at Butner and Wilmington), three security guards (NC Air National Guard—Charlotte), eighteen clerical assist-ants, and janitor-messenger (USPFO)—total forty-seven. After thirty-seven years of loyal and dedicated service as Chief Clerk and Assistant to the Adjutant General, Miss Evie W. Freeman was retired 31 December 1963. 8 SECTION III PUBLIC INFORMATION AND SPECIAL ACTIVITIES The North Carolina National Guard Public Affairs Section, under the direction of Colonel Charles S. Manooch, Jr., continued to stress to the citizenry of North Carolina, the importance of the dual mission of the North Carolina Army and Air National Guard and the vital part the Guard plays in today's defense structure. As in the past, the prestige and benefits of being a National Guardsman were the main themes in spotlighting the National Guard. Newspapers, radio and television were kept current, at all times, of the missions, needs and accomplishments of the Guard. Material and items presented to the television industry in-clude the "Little Guy" animated cartoons, on-the-spot coverage of various armory facilities and interviews with National Guard personnel. Various 10-, 20-, 30- and 60-second recruiting spots and the "Guard Session" series made up a large part of the radio industry's presentations. Approximately 85 radio stations in North Carolina programmed the 15-minute weekly "Guard Session" series and most all Tar Heel stations cooperated with the National Guard in special recruiting programs conducted by local units. Newspaper coverage of National Guard activities at the local and state levels reached an all time high. Promotions of Guardsmen and coverage of field training activities, closely followed by special feature stories (command changes and re-tirements) were the principle levels of coverage reported in the newspapers. Four hundred buses in eight major cities were posted with National Guard transit cards. Outdoor National Guard bill-boards were posted throughout the State's highway system. All types of printed recruiting materials, such as pamphlets, book-lets, posters, counter cards, bumper stickers and window decals, were furnished to all units of the North Carolina Army and Air National Guard. In addition, special displays, prepared at the Bureau level or State level, were made available to all units for specific events, such as county fairs, high school presentations, etc. All military vehicles loaned to the Post Office Department 10 Report of The Adjutant General during Christmas carried special banners with the caption, "Santa's Helpers, Your National Guard." Direct communication with business and industrial leaders, civic leaders and high schools was maintained by The Adjutant General's Department and all units to continue the excellent community relations already established. There was a notable in-crease in participation of community activities by members of the National Guard at the local level as well as the use of the National Guard armories for community and civic activities. In many areas, the National Guard Armory is the hub of the com-munity. Various representatives of the community, National Guard and National leaders participated in Armory Dedications with appropriate ceremonies. Special activities of the National Guard during January 1963 to June 1964 included Armed Forces Day, National Rifle and Pistol Matches, State Fair and the North Carolina National Guard Physical Fitness Program. Armed Forces Day, held on the third Saturday in May, con-sisted of Army and Air National Guard participation in open houses; parades and other ceremonies. Most units took part in varying degrees in observing Armed Forces Day activities throughout the State. The North Carolina National Guard again participated at the National Rifle and Pistol Matches held at Camp Perry, Ohio, which provided additional publicity and favorable comment in North Carolina. The 10-firing point National Guard Rifle Range at the State Fair proved again to be highly popular with the youngsters. The range, operated under National Rifle Association rules, drew much praise from parents and children alike. An estimated 8,000 people visited the Rifle Range and display which featured the "One Army" exhibit—"Soldier—Key to Landpower." The North Carolina National Guard continued to stress its Physical Fitness Program, a project originated by the Guard of this State in 1962 and accepted as the pilot program for the National Guard nationwide. The last test results of the program in North Carolina indicate that the Tar Heel Guardsmen are in better physical condition than at any time previously. One of the most outstanding special events to transpire dur-ing the period of this report was the "Joint Recruiting Pro-gram." The reorganization of the North Carolina Army National Guard caused a shortage of men in the Guard. In order to bring the Army National Guard up to the strength allocated, a special Report of The Adjutant General 11 request was forwarded to higher headquarters to ask the United States Army Recruiters throughout the State to refer men to the North Carolina Army National Guard for enlistment. With maximum speed, the request was approved and the North Carolina National Guard inaugurated another first—a "Joint Recruiting Program" between the active Army and the National Guard. Contact was made with the Commanding Officers of the United States Army Recruiting Main Stations in Charlotte and Raleigh. Upon presentation of the plan, their cooperation was assured. The Army Recruiters would receive the same points for referring a man to the National Guard who enlisted as they would for an active Army enlistment. The success of the pro-gram is shown in that during the first four months, 55% of the men referred by the active Army Recruiters were enlisted in the North Carolina Army National Guard. Another special event of the period was the visit of allied officers stationed at the John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Cen-ter at Fort Bragg. The Adjutant General's Department was contacted by the Liaison Officer of the Center to arrange a tour of Raleigh and the National Guard facilities. Two busloads of officers, representing Southeastern Asia countries and the Far East, on two different occasions, were hosted by The Adjutant General and his staff. Presentation to the Governor and the North Carolina Supreme Court Justices were the major high-lights of the tours that included visits to the new North Caro-lina Legislative Building, Museum of Art and the North Carolina National Guard Center. The most far-reaching special event was inaugurated in June 1964 when members of the news media of North Carolina (radio-television- newspapers) were invited to join The Adjutant Gen-eral on his inspection visit of the Special Forces at their two-week field training at Camp Williams, Utah. Six members of the news media from Charlotte, Durham, Raleigh and Wilmington and the mayors of Raleigh and Wilmington spent two days in the field observing the Special Forces of North Carolina and Utah prepare for their drop into rugged Utah Mountains. The entourage traveled to and from Utah in the North Carolina Air National Guard C-121 Super Constellation. The members of the news media were greatly impressed with the realism and high proficiency displayed by the officers and men of the Special Forces. The eye-witness view by members of the news media resulted in much radio, television and newspaper coverage of the Special Forces encampment. SECTION IV UNITED STATES PROPERTY AND FISCAL OFFICER The United States Property and Fiscal Officer is authorized the State under the provisions of Title 32, U. S. Code, Section 708. This officer is a member of the North Carolina National Guard on extended Active Duty. The United States Property and Fiscal Officer is responsible for the financial planning, obligating, accounting reporting and administrative control of all Federally appropriated funds allot-ted to the State for the support of Army and Air National Guard activities. In addition to his Comptroller functions, he is responsible for requisitioning, receipt, issue, shipment, dis-position and accounting for all supplies furnished and equipment loaned to the State by the Federal Government for the train-ing support of Federally recognized Army and Air National Guard units and activities in the State. A staff of fifty-nine (59) Federally paid technicians is provided to assist this officer in performing his duties. Colonel Thomas B. Longest has had this assignment for this State during the period covered by this report. A detailed report of the activities of the USPFO is outlined in an attachment to this report. 12 SECTION V NORTH CAROLINA ARMORY COMMISSION AND CONSTRUCTION The North Carolina Armory Commission, constituted under the authority of Article 23, Section 143-230, General Statutes of North Carolina, is charged with responsibility for the armory construction program including the building of new armories and the maintenance and modernization of the old. The Com-mission Membership consists of the Governor, the Adjutant General, the Attorney General and two Federally recognized officers of the North Carolina National Guard appointed by the Governor. The present appointed members are Brigadier General Ivan Hardesty and Colonel Daniel K. Edwards. State appropriations to pay a portion of the cost of armories built by Federal aid and maintenance of State-owned armories are made to this Commission. An audit of all income and dis-bursements of the Commission, together with a list of assets, is a part of this report. During the period 1 January 1963, through 30 June 1964, two new armories and a Combined Field Maintenance Shop were put under contract and construction started. Seven new armories at Elizabethtown, Forest City, Hamlet, Morehead City, Raleigh, Raleigh-Durham Airport, and Winston-Salem started in 1962, were completed and occupied in 1963. During this period, major repairs were made to a number of State-owned facilities. The following is a tabulation of new projects put under con-tract and repairs made during the period for which the report is made, with an indication of the source of the twenty-five per cent of the cost not paid by the Federal Government on new construction: 13 14 Report of The Adjutant General new armories SECTION VI STRENGTH OF THE NORTH CAROLINA NATIONAL GUARD The Army National Guard of North Carolina consisted of 835 commissioned officers, 75 warrant officers and 9915 enlisted men as of 31 December 1963; and 810 commissioned officers, 72 warrant officers and 10,011 enlisted men as of 30 June 1964, comprising the State Headquarters Headquarters Detachment; 205th Medical Detachment; Co C, 16th Special Forces Group; 123rd Signal Detachment (RM) ; and 30th Infantry Division, commanded by Major General Weston H. Willis of Jacksonville. The Air National Guard of North Carolina consisted of 136 commissioned officers and 870 airmen as of 31 December 1963; and 130 commissioned officers and 833 airmen as of 30 June 1964, and was headquartered at Douglas Municipal Airport, Charlotte, N. C, under the command of Brigadier General Wil-liam J. Payne. The North Carolina Air National Guard consist-ed of Headquarters of the NC Air National Guard; Head-quarters, 145th Air Transport Group (H) ; 145th USAF Dispen-sary (AT) ; 145th Material Squadron (AT) ; 145th Support Squadron (AT); 156th Aeromed Evacuation Flight; 156th Air Transport Squadron (H) ; 156th Weather Flight (Mobile) and the 263rd Communication Squadron (TT) at Badin. The grand total of organized militia of the State of North Carolina was 11,856 at the close of the period for which the report is made. 15 SECTION VII STATE SPECIAL DUTY During the period covered by this report, it was necessary to call elements of the National Guard into active State special service eight times to assist in various emergencies. On 4 April 1963, a forest fire occurred in Franklin County. Twelve officers and 110 enlisted men were ordered to State special duty to assist authorities. On the same date, four officers and 69 enlisted men were ordered to State special duty to fight a forest fire in Lee County. As a result of a forest fire in Scotland County on 5-6 April 1963, six officers and 48 enlist-ed men were ordered to State special duty. On four separate occasions elements of the North Carolina National Guard were ordered to state special duty to assist search parties for missing persons. 1. 4-6 October 1963—Randolph County—Three officers and 69 enlisted men 2. 16 October 1963—Duplin County—Four officers and 33 enlisted men 3. 19-20 October 1963—Granville County—Six officers and 83 enlisted men 4. 23 January 1964—Gates County—Eight officers and 112 enlisted men As a result of a drowning at Kerr Lake in April, 1964, heli-copters assisted in an area search for the body at intervals for several weeks. 16 SECTION VIII ARMY NATIONAL GUARD A. Reorganizations and Present Organization At the close of the last reporting period (31 December 1962), the Governor had rejected the latest reorganization plan sub-mitted by the Secretary of Defense. In late January 1963 an-other reorganization proposal was submitted by the Secretary. This plan involved the elimination of all Air Defense units (eleven—252nd Artillery Group) by conversion to infantry or other type units to be absorbed in the 30th Infantry Division. The 30th Infantry Division would be reorganized under the ROAD (Reorganized Army Division) concept and would include the Division Base with six infantry battalions and two armor battalions. The troop basis for the State consisted of: State Hq Hq Detachment at 100 percent strength 30th Infantry Division at 80 percent strength 205th Medical Detachment at 80 percent strength 123rd Signal Detachment at 80 percent strength Co C, 16th Special Forces Group, 1st Special Forces at 55 percent strength After considerable discussion, this proposal was accepted by the Governor and detailed planning was initiated. Several key factors were developed for guidance: 1. If possible, all communities in which a unit was located would retain a unit. 2. Minimum changes in branch to eliminate retraining. 3. Utilization of existing facilities in best possible manner. 4. Grouping of battalion size organizations in the same gen-eral geographic area to allow for better command supervision. 5. Placement of larger units in the more densely populated communities. The completed plans were implemented on 10 March 1963 and fulfilled the guidance criteria in an acceptable manner. This reorganization was accomplished using draft Tables of Organization. When the final Tables of Organization were pub-lished in February 1964, another reorganization was necessary 17 18 Report of The Adjutant General to conform to changes between the draft and final versions. This action was completed on 1 March 1964 and made only-minor changes throughout the 30th Infantry Division. The 30th Infantry Division is included among the Nation's highest priority (Immediate Reserve) units. In the establish-ment of this priority system and realignment of all Reserve Forces, the Secretary of Defense promised that the high priority units would receive increased financial support in the areas of administrative assistance, service school training and modern equipment. However, since implementation, such support has not been increased; in fact, sharp reductions have been made in these funding areas.

Annual Field Training Calendar Year 1963 The 30th Infantry Division (—) , under the command of Major General Weston H. Willis, performed Annual Field Training at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, during the month of June. All units spent the entire training period in the field. Tactical training at squad and platoon level was emphasized. All infan-try platoons conducted live fire exercises. One guardsman was killed in an accident prior to departure from home station. One brigade of the 30th Infantry Division, consisting of two armor battalions, one cavalry squadron, one medical and one maintenance company, and other supporting elements, trained at Fort Stewart, Georgia, during the month of June. Training included firing prescribed tank tables and unit tactical training. The 205th Medical Detachment and 123rd Signal Detach-ment were attached to the 30th Infantry Division for the training period. Company C, 16th Special Forces, performed AFT at Fort Bragg during the month of August. The first week of the training period was devoted to MOS training, and the second week to tactical training including tactical jumps. All training was supported by the Special Warfare Center. The division missile battalion trained at Fort Benning, Geor-gia, during the month of June. A comprehensive training pro-gram was followed which included firing the Honest John rocket. Headquarters and Headquarters Detachment, NCARNG, less 22 Report of The Adjutant General the Selective Service Section, was divided between Fort Bragg, Fort Benning, and Fort Stewart. The Selective Service Section attended the Selective Service Conference at Keesley Air Force Base, Biloxi, Mississippi. The Adjutant General feels that the training period was most effective. Calendar Year 1964 The 30th Infantry Division (—), under the command of Major General Weston H. Willis, performed Annual Field Train-ing at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, during the month of June. All units spent the entire training period in field bivouac. Training emphasis was at small unit level with particular at-tention to development of junior officers and noncommissioned officers. A considerable amount of night tactical training was accomplished. One brigade of the 30th Infantry Division consisting of two armor battalions, one cavalry squadron, one medical and one maintenance company, and other supporting elements began Annual Field Training at Fort Stewart, Georgia, on 27 June 1964, consequently, the training period will not be completed until 12 July 1964. The 205th Medical and 123rd Signal Detachments were at-tached to the 30th Infantry Division at Fort Bragg for the Annual Field Training period. Company C, 16th Special Forces, performed AFT at Camp Williams, Utah, with the 19th Special Forces Group, Utah Army National Guard. The training consisted of a Field Training Exercise which utilized the Special Forces in situations similar to those expected when actually employed in combat. The train-ing was realistic and effective. The unit was air transported to and from training site by the North Carolina Air National Guard. Headquarters and Headquarters Detachment, NCARNG, less Selective Service Section, was divided between Fort Bragg and Fort Stewart. The Selective Service Section performed on-the-job training in the offices of the North Carolina Selective Serv-ice System. All training was well planned, aggressively directed, and effectively accomplished. Report of The Adjutant General 23 C. Service and Army Area Schools Members of the Army National Guard, officers and enlisted men, continue to strive for professional improvement by at-tending the various courses of instruction offered at Army Service and Area Schools. During the calendar year 1963, 189 officers and 93 enlisted men took advantage of these schools and from 1 January 1964 until 30 June 1964, 54 officers and 37 enlisted men attended service schools for a total of 373 for the period. D. Reserve Enlistment Program—63 This program replaced RFA-55 (commonly called six-month training program). The principal difference in the two pro-grams is that a non-prior service individual upon enlistment agrees to enter active duty for training for a specified time which is required to complete training in the MOS to which he is assigned. The minimum period is four months. Generally, this program affords excellent training for the individual guardsman and relieves the unit of the responsibility for the major part of basic training. During calendar year 1963, 1778 enlisted men entered the program and from 1 January to 30 June 1964, 1282 enlisted men entered the program, for a total 18 months input of 3060. E. North Carolina Military Academy The North Carolina Military Academy was established in 1958 and is located at Fort Bragg, N. C, utilizing several build-ings held on license from the Department of Army. The primary mission of the Academy is to provide an Officer Candidate School for the development, training and commissioning of qualified applicants. A Non-commissioned Officer Leadership School is also pro-vided by the Academy. Lt. Colonel William P. Keeton, Jr., has served as Commandant since its organization. Thirty-seven members of Officers Candidate Class Number 5 were graduated and commissioned on 27 July 1963. The follow-ing is a list of graduates: 24 Report of The Adjutant General Richard E. Bailey Elton F. Kirby Bobby J. Barnes Robert B. Lancaster Floyd A. Bell Raeford E. Langdon Ronald R. Benson John S. Mills David B. Bunn Julius J. Preddy Hilton E. Clayborne Preston C. Sasser James W. Campbell Henry B. Smith, Jr. Carlton E. Davis Jimmy C. Stephens Jerry L. Ellis Billy L. Stevens Thomas E. Fields Louis A. Stoakley Gene G. Formy-Duval Joseph H. Stone, Jr. Daniel R. Foster, III Jimmie Strickland Reginald D. Gay Bobby G. Suggs Kermit L. Guthrie, Jr. Ralph F. Sullivan, Jr. *John E. Griffith, II William M. Teachey Kenneth I. Hass Johnny B. Treece Cranford A. Heath Wilton M. Warner, Jr. Ralph G. Howell Joel C. Wetherington **Ronald M. Johnson * Honor Graduate ** Leadership Award Thirty-seven non-commissioned officers were graduated from NCO Leadership Class Number 4 on 27 July 1963. As of 30 June 1964, thirty-six members of Officers Candidate Class Number 6 remained enrolled. It is expected that all of these will be commissioned as Second Lieutenants upon comple-tion of annual field training in July 1964. F. Annual General Inspections General inspections of all units of the Army National Guard are conducted annually by the Inspector General's Department, Headquarters, Third United States Army, Fort McPherson, Georgia. The purpose of these inspections is to determine whether: a. Units are organized as prescribed and minimum strength requirements are being maintained. b. Officers and enlisted men possess the prescribed qualifica-tions. c. Organizations and members thereof are armed, equipped and uniformed with prescribed allowances. d. Training and instruction are in accordance with prescribed standards. Report of The Adjutant General 25 e. Amount of property in the hands of units, its condition and safe-guarding is as prescribed. f. Records are being maintained in accordance with the re-quirements of law and regulations. The results of these inspections during the biennium fall into three adjectival rating categories as follows: a. FISCAL Year 1963 SUPERIOR—16 EXCELLENT—73 SATISFACTORY—14 UNSATISFACTORY— 1 b. FISCAL Year 1964 SUPERIOR—14 EXCELLENT—68 SATISFACTORY��12 G. Maintenance As State Maintenance Officer, Colonel Charles D. Isom, Jr., has responsibility for supervising the maintenance and repair of all Federal equipment issued to the North Carolina Army National Guard. The functions are performed at the Combined Support Maintenance Shop, Butner, Major Arthur E. Ferrell, Supervisior; Army Aircraft Maintenance Shop, Raleigh-Durham Airport, 1st Lt. Harvey F. Shull, Supervisor; and twenty-one (21) Organizational Maintenance Shops located throughout the State, under the technical supervision of Major James M. Fletch-er, Organizational Maintenance Officer. The over-all standards of maintenance have been, and continue to be, outstanding. On 1 February 1964, the Office of the State Maintenance Officer was moved from Butner to offices in The Adjutant General's Department, N. C. National Guard Center, Raleigh. The annual Command Maintenance Management Inspections for FY 1963 and FY 1964 were conducted for The Adjutant General by the State Maintenance Officer, assisted by a Team Chief and technical personnel from the Combined Support Maintenance Shop. These inspections were conducted under the provisions of a revised Army Regulation 750-8. Units and activi-ties were rated either Satisfactory or Unsatisfactory in the categories of both Maintenance Management Operations and Condition of Material. All units and activities in the NC ARNG attained a rating of Satisfactory for both Fiscal Years. This 26 Report of The Adjutant General revised concept for the conduct of these CMMI's has accomp-lished the objective of causing commanders at all echelons to become more aware of their responsibilities for maintenance and care of their equipment. State Maintenance activities were awarded Superior ratings for both FY 1963 and FY 1964 Annual General Inspections (IG). The Chief, National Guard Bureau, in June 1963 and in August 1964, commended the State Maintenance Officer and all maintenance personnel under his supervision for these Superior ratings. In November 1962, Headquarters, Fort Bragg, requested that The Adjutant General authorize the Combined Support Main-tenance Shop to undertake a vehicle rebuild project for the Active Army because of the emergency situation created by the Cuban Crisis. The Maintenance activity, ably supported by the USPFO for NC, reconditioned seventy-seven (77) % ton Cargo trucks. By extra time worked at night and on weekends, the project was completed by 31 January 1963, ten days ahead of schedule. This accomplishment earned appreciation and com-mendation from Fort Bragg. H. North Carolina Army National Guard Technician Program As of the time of this report, the North Carolina Army Na-tional Guard is composed of over 10,000 citizen soldiers organ-ized in 147 different units and activities located in 99 different communities throughout the State. Often overlooked, or at least not apparent to the layman, is the vast amount of admin-istration, accounting, maintenance, logistics, and training func-tions which must be performed daily in order for the National Guard to fulfill its mission. To carry on the tremendous workload at unit and activity level, an allotment of full-time positions and funding support is made annually to this State by the National Guard Bureau under the provisions of Section 709, Title 32, U. S. Code. The program for this force of employees is known as the Army National Guard Technician Program. Even though these tech-nician employees' salaries are supported 100 per cent by the Federal funds, for all intent and purposes, they perform their duties and responsibilities as regular State employees. Respon-sibility for the employment, supervision, separation, establish-ment of work week, and fixing of pay rates, within the limits prescribed by National Guard Regulations, is delegated to the Report of The Adjutant General 27 State Adjutant General by the Chief, National Guard Bureau. Technician positions authorized and supported for the Ad-jutant General's Department include a Technician Personnel Officer, State Maintenance Officer, Organizational Maintenance Officer, two Staff Administrative Specialists, and one Publica-tions Clerk. The North Carolina National Guard Military Academy, lo-cated at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, is supported by a tech-nician Staff Assistant (OCS), and one OCS Clerk. Under present unit technician manning criteria, at least one technician is supported for each National Guard unit with an assigned strength of 50 or more Guardsmen. These individuals occupy positions known as Administrative Supply Technicians. Larger units such as battalions and higher type headquarters organizations are provided additional personnel based on the type of unit concerned. These positions include Staff Admin-istrative Assistants, Staff Training Assistants, and Staff Ad-ministrative Specialists. An Organizational Maintenance Shop, authorized for each battalion size unit within the State, is supported with from one to six General Mechanic Technician positions. In addition to the technician support provided at unit and organizational level, we have three major activities which re-quire much larger forces of full-time personnel. These are the Office and Warehouse of the U. S. Property And Fiscal Officer, the Combined Support Maintenance Shop, and the Army Avia-tion Maintenance Shop. Except for one State-paid auditor, the Office and Warehouse of the U. S. Property and Fiscal Officer for North Carolina, located at the North Carolina National Guard Center complex on Reedy Creek Road in Raleigh, is supported entirely by ARNG Technicians with a current authorization of 59 positions. These USPFO Technician positions include administrative, budget, accounting, supply, clerical, and warehousing personnel provided to assist the USPFO in discharging his responsibili-ties with respect to the receipt, storage, distribution, and ac-counting of all funds and property of the United States pro-vided by the Federal Government in support of the National Guard of the State. The North Carolina National Guard Combined Support Main-tenance Shop currently located in Butner, North Carolina, but which will be moved to new quarters at the National Guard 28 Report of The Adjutant General Center complex in Raleigh early in 1965, is supported by 63 ARNG Technicians. Field Maintenance Technicians include ad-ministrative, technical, craft, and trade positions required to perform the necessary field maintenance of Federal material and equipment provided for the National Guard units located throughout the State. The North Carolina National Guard Army Aviation Maintenance Shop, located at Raleigh-Durham Air-port, is currently supported by 16 ARNG Technicians. The technicians supported for this facility are responsible for the maintenance and repair of Army aircraft authorized for this State. ARNG Technicians employed at the end of each Fiscal Year and total salaries and wages paid those technicians during the biennium covered by this report were as follows. Fiscal Year 1963 SECTION IX AIR NATIONAL GUARD A. Organization The North Carolina Air National Guard is composed of four major elements reporting directly to and under the direction of Brigadier General William J. Payne, Assistant Adjutant General for Air of the State of North Carolina. These units are Hq, 145 Air Transport Group (H) ; Hq, North Carolina Air National Guard ; 263 Communications Squadron (TT) ; and the 156 Weather Flight. These units, with the exception of the 263 Communications Squadron (TT), are located at Douglas Munici-pal Airport, Charlotte, N. C. The 263 Communications Squadron (TT) is located at Badin, N. C. with a detachment at Wades-boro, N. C. Headquarters, 145 Air Transport Group (H), supervises all functions of the 145 Support Squadron (AT), 145 Materiel Squadron (AT), 145 USAF Dispensary (AT), 156 Air Trans-port Squadron (H) and the 156 Aeromedical Evacuation Flight. Supervision and direction of functions are in accordance with the most recent Group functional alignment whereby the author-ity and responsibility to command an Air National Guard unit is vested in one commander, the Group Commander. Although each unit within the Group is authorized a commander, these subordinate commanders are responsible to the Group Com-mander for certain functions in support of the Group mission. In this alignment, the Group Commander is authorized a Deputy Commander for Materiel, Deputy Commander for Operations, and a Support Squadron Commander as assistants for the supervision of all Group activities. Military Air Transport Serv-ice, USAF, is the major gaining command for the 145 Air Transport Group (H). In the event of an emergency, the Group and assigned elements would become a part of the World Wide MATS System with assignment to Eastern Transport Air Force, McGuire AFB, N. J. The Group has an "in place" M-Day assign-ment at the present time. The 263 Communications Squadron (TT) is composed of operations, maintenance, and self-supporting sections and is 29 30 Report of The Adjutant General assigned to the 251 Communications Group (Mobile), Ohio Air National Guard, Springfield, Ohio, for operational purposes and for supervision of training for preparation to perform Federal mission. The 251 Communications Group does not exercise com-mand over the 263 Communications Squadron (TT). This unit has an M-Day assignment to Air Force Communications Service. The 156 Weather Flight, Mobile, continued normal operations during this period without a major change in organizational structure. This unit has an M-Day assignment to Air Weather Service, Military Air Transport Service. The small staff authorized Hq, NC ANG, does not provide for adequate coverage of the various NC ANG functional areas. As in the past and in order to provide sufficient coverage, a composite staff consisting of officers assigned to other units has been utilized to provide this coverage. This arrangement has proven of great benefit and provides an air staff well versed in all functional areas for the Adjutant General, State of North Carolina. This structure has permitted decentralization of cer-tain Air National Guard functions to the office of the Assistant Adjutant General for Air, thus eliminating duplications. One of the major problem areas in the organizational struc-ture of NC ANG units during this period has been a constant change in strength requirements. During one period, we re-cruited "like mad." During another period, and not too much later, we were in the process of selecting officers for possible elimination from the program. We were heroes on 30 June 1963 when recruiting objective had been met and exceeded. The next day, 1 July 1963, we had too many people on board, thus neces-sitating a possible attrition program until desired strength level was attained. The strength problems are due to the chang-ing personnel authorizations (Unit Manning Documents) with-out sufficient increase in the authorized drill pay spaces. In this State, we are authorized 1235 military spaces in accordance with applicable Unit Manning Documents. The programmed (drill pay spaces) is only 962 which means we can fill approxi-mately 78% of authorized positions overall. The 145 Air Trans-port Group (H) can only fill 75.5% of authorized positions. In the entire Air National Guard, the full Unit Manning Document strength of 98,783 exceeds the authorized drill pay strength by 24%. The drill pay ceiling imposed has been the primary reason for reduction in overall airmen strength during the last twelve months. USAF Service School spaces have been reduced and Report of The Adjutant General 31 funds used to support drill pay spaces; therefore, spaces have not been available for non-prior service airmen. We must look to this source for replacements for experienced airmen com-pleting- service obligations. A great majority of airmen do not choose to continue affiliation once a service obligation is com-pleted. Every effort is made to retain airmen through explana-tion of present benefits. It appears that retention of trained personnel will continue as a problem until additional benfits be-come available. The need for a reenlistment bonus is more ap-parent daily. The major turnover of experienced personnel every six years is expensive and has an adverse effect on the opera-tional capability of Air National Guard units. As of 30 June 1964, the following NC ANG units are Federally recognized and actively participating in 48 unit training assemblies per fiscal year, field training, and other authorized training activities: 32 Report of The Adjutant General mission had been planned for the Group. This change was ex-pected early in this reporting period; however, it did not ma-terialize until early January 1964. Pending receipt of the authority authorizing a mission change and beginning 1 July 1963, an accelerated overwater training program was begun to qualify aircrews on overseas routes. Each aircrew member is required to make at least two overseas trips each year in order to become and remain operationally ready. Meeting these re-quirements, as well as other flying requirements, requires de-tailed planning and coordination on the part of the various functional areas. Primary missions of NC ANG units are as follows: Hq, NC ANG: Advises and assists the Adjutant General of the State in the administration, logistics, and training of Air National Guard units within the State, in performance of State requirements and in preparation of the Air National Guard for its Federal mission; and provides for the retention and con-tinued training of highly experienced Air National Guard per-sonnel. Hq, 145 Air Transport Group (H) : Provides command and staff supervision for assigned units in Flying Safety, Operations and Materiel functional areas; provides command support to assigned units in all other functional areas. 145 Support Sq (AT) : Operates and maintains an installation or facility in support of dispersed, enroute or on base mission, maintenance, medical and headquarters units. 145 Materiel Sq (AT) : Performs all aircraft maintenance, supply support and services required to maintain base units and aircraft in an operationally ready state. 145 USAF Dispensary (AT) : Provides medical support to mission squadron and allied units under field or combat con-ditions. 156 Air Transport Squadron (H) : Provides military air trans-portation of personnel and materiel for the armed forces and other governmental agencies as directed. 156 Aeromedical Evacuation Flight: Provides aeromedical evacuation crews for in-flight care of patients on transport air-craft assigned to each Air Transport Squadron, Heavy, at operating locations. Report of The Adjutant General 33 156 Weather Flight, Mobile: Provides weather forecasting and observing services as required. 263 Communications Squadron (TT) : The peacetime mission of the Communications Squadron (Tributary Teams) is to at-tain and maintain an optimum effective capability to carry out roles and tasks assigned in Gaining Command plans for use in national emergency. C. Reorganizations and Conversions The mission change from aeromedical transport to air trans-port referred to above, became effective on 25 January 1964. Concurrent with the mission change, a major organizational realignment was authorized necessitating reassignment of a majority of personnel. In addition, units were withdrawn or deactivated and new units activated. It was necessary to present the new units for Federal Recognition Inspection as of 25 January 1964. Following is a listing of units authorized imme-diately prior to realignment and authorizations effective as of 25 January 1964 and as of this date: Units Auth Prior to 25 Jan 64 Units Auth as of 25 Jan 64 HQ, NC ANG HQ, NC ANG Hq, 145 Aeromed Trnsp Gp Hq, 145 Air Trnsp Gp (H) 145 Air Base Sq (AM) 145 Spt Sq (AT) 145 Consol Acft Maint Sq (AM) 145 Mat Sq (AT) 145 USAF Disp (AM) 145 USAF Disp (AT) 156 Aeromed Trnsp Sq 156 Air Trnsp Sq (H) 156 Wea Fit (F&O) 156 AMEF 263 Comm Sq (TT) *156 Wea Fit (F&O) 263 Comm Sq (TT) * Redesignated effective 1 April 1964 With this reorganization and concurrent mission change, we were faced with a change in the composition of an aircrew. Due to the global airlift capability with resultant worldwide opera-tions, navigators were authorized as a part of an aircrew for the first time in the history of the North Carolina Air National Guard. Realizing this requirement, the National Guard Bureau was requested to authorize the procurement of navigators ap-proximately six months prior to the mission change. Authority was granted and qualified navigators were on board at time of mission change. We were not so fortunate in another area. We had been advised that Flight Attendants authorized immediately 34 Report of The Adjutant General prior to the reorganization and mission change would continue as an authorization in the new unit manning documents. Upon receipt of the documents, the Flight Attendant authorization had been changed to Loadmasters. It was then necessary to re-train assigned Flight Attendants as Loadmasters. The retraining program has been more successful than anticipated. Nine opera-tionally ready Flight Attendants were available by the end of this reporting period. Due to the primary air transport mission, the flight nurses and aeromedical evacuation specialists were removed from the Air Transport Squadron and assigned to the 156 Aeromedical Evacuation Flight, organized on 25 January 1964. The flying unit presently has a dual mission in reverse of the former mis-sion. The current primary mission, as stated above, is air trans-port mission with a secondary mission of aeromedical transport. Sixteen crews are authorized to perform these missions ; how-ever, all positions cannot be filled due to manning limitations imposed by the National Guard Bureau based on drill pay spaces authorized by the Congress and the Office of the Secre-tary of Defense. Aircrew compositions authorized for perform-ance of types of missions indicated are as follows : Air Transport Aeromedical Transport 2—Pilots 1—Flight Nurse 1—Navigator 2—Flight Engineers 2—Flight Engineers 2—Aeromed Evac Specialists 1—Loadmaster 1—Navigator (when required) 2—Pilots The reorganization and mission change has not materially affected the progress of the flying unit toward operational readi-ness and capability to perform assigned missions. The aircrew members continue to improve their capabilities to operate the C-121 aircraft. Eleven aircrews have been formed and nine complete air transport or aeromedical transport aircrews are fully operationally ready. The nine aircrews are capable of global airlift as the situation may demand. Under emergency condi-tions, eleven aircrews would be available to perform assigned missions throughout the world. Two years experience in the C-121 aircraft have now been gained. This experience is beneficial to the pilots who fly the aircraft and to the maintenance personnel responsible for in-suring that aircraft are maintained in first class condition. An average of 338 hours per month has been flown in these air- Report of The Adjutant General 35 craft during this period. The Group has flown more each and every month than any of the seven Air National Guard C-121 Groups. It is noteworthy that periodic inspection manhours have been reduced from 1713 direct manhours in September 1963 to 1522.5 manhours per inspection as of 30 June 1964. This in-creased efficiency is also true in data regarding "post flight" inspections. These achievements have been possible by excellent management principles applied by the Base Maintenance Officer. The aircraft in commission rate has remained high and exceed-ed the rate normally expected. The flying unit continued its accident free record during this period and has been given special recognition by the National Guard Bureau and the gaining command. In August 1963, the NC ANG completed 5 years since the last major accident, and, on 30 June 1964, had accumulated 26,095 flying hours without a major accident. This is all the more remarkable when con-sideration is given to the fact that this encompassed 4 major aircraft conversions from the F-86E jet Day fighter to the F-86L All Weather jet interceptor to two very different versions of the twin reciprocating engine C-119 to the 4 engined C-121C and G. The 263 Communications Squadron (TT) has not experienced a reorganization during this period. This unit has an excellent record and is highly regarded by the National Guard Bureau and the gaining command. The 156 Weather Flight, Mobile, was reorganized during this period and redesignated; however, these actions did not change the function of the unit to a great extent. For the first time in its history, the unit has filled all authorized forecaster positions. The unit's effectiveness showed an excellent increase during this period. D. Construction. Most of the construction was in the nature of repairs, re-paving, and overlaying of asphalt taxi areas and aircraft park-ing apron at Charlotte, and the vehicle parking area at Badin. These totaled $47,071.00. Relocation of two power lines totaled $6,741.00, while renovation, repairs, replacement, etc., of por-tions of the Dining Hall heating and air conditioning systems, and tie-down anchors for the C-121 aircraft accounted for $9,110.00. 36 Report of The Adjutant General The largest purchase and hire project was the construction of a fine class-room building for the C-121 Mobile Training De-tachment from Air Training Command which is stationed here at Charlotte and provides initial and refresher instruction on all C-121 systems, etc., for aircrews and maintenance personnel from all seven ANG C-121 groups, a Regular Air Force Special Air Missions C-121 Squadron, and a few miscellaneous crew members from USAF, USN, etc., from time to time. This structure was designed, engineered, and constructed by our Base Civil Engineer at a cost of $5.42 per square foot for an 8 room brick veneered masonry building, insulated through-out, heated and air conditioned, with a 20 year built-up roof. In addition, we realized a concrete floored basement storage area of some 2,200 square feet as a bonus. This building was costed out by Hq, USAF, engineers at $110,000.00, while our cost was $25,000.00. A special letter of commendation was presented to the Base Civil Engineer by the Assistant Chief, National Guard Bureau, Air, for this outstanding achievement. Plans and specifications were prepared, and bids opened on the rebuilding of a major taxiway, of which the ANG is the prime user, in June 1964. Funds were not immediately available, so the contract was signed early in July for $139,453.00. Contract in the amount of $174,184 was awarded for the re-moval of two C-121 nose dock hangars from Charleston AFB, S. C, to the ANG east parking apron at Douglas. This project has been in the mill for two years, and is scheduled to be com-pleted in January 1965. Designs, plans and specifications for the addition of dining hall and classroom wing to the facility at Badin, N. C, were completed and approved, and the project incorporated as a line item in the FY 1965 military construction program. It is an-ticipated that this construction will be completed during CY 1965. E. Field Training ANGR 50-03 authorizes the performance of a fifteen day active duty for training by two methods. Field training may be performed by a unit during fifteen continuous days or under the year round concept. The 263 Communications Squadron (TT) and the 156 Weather Flight, Mobile, use the 15 con-tinuous days system. The 145 Air Transport Group uses the "year round" concept. This system was used during Fiscal Year Report of The Adjutant General 37 1963 and 1964. The year round plan permits the spread of available field training manpower throughout the year in direct support of daily mission support requirements. The commander is provided complete flexibility to schedule available mandays in all of the various categories. When effectively used, this plan can be of much value in improving the overall capability of individuals. Detailed scheduling is most important if the objec-tives of this plan are met. Training under the year round con-cept whereby individual training is stressed necessitates com-pletion of unit training, general military training, and other training requirements during unit training assemblies. During Fiscal Year 1964, one primary field training period was established during each quarter for personnel other than rated personnel and others on flying status. An effort was made to schedule approximately 25% of the personnel for training during each of the primary periods in order to spread available field training mandays throughout the fiscal year to support mission requirements. In instances where personnel could not attend a primary period, they were scheduled for other periods when services could be used. A majority of rated personnel and other personnel on flying status completed field training requirements during the first six months of Fiscal Year 1964. This action was taken in order to qualify personnel on overseas routes at the earliest possible date, thereby increasing the operational readiness status of personnel in this category. Trips were scheduled to the Far East and to Europe and aircrews operated over routes prescribed for Military Air Transport Service. Flight nurses and medical technicians who had not previously performed 15 days train-ing as medical crew members aboard aeromedical transport air-craft of the active Air Force transporting sick and injured patients of the armed forces throughout the continental United States participated in this training. Others performed the same duty airlifting patients from overseas bases to the United States. The rest flew on the overseas training mission with our aircraft. The year round type of field training is quite valuable and has been effectively used by our flying units. Continuous evalua-tion is necessary to insure that full training benefits are realized. A program of this type is necessary in order for flying person-nel to meet overwater training and qualification requirements. The value to other personnel must be based on training benefits 38 Report of The Adjutant General realized and contributions to the overall mission. These are the most important items for unit commanders to consider in pre-paring a field training schedule. Personal convenience must be the least important item in the scheduling. The 263 Communications Squadron (TT) participated in Ex-ercise "Long Haul II" during Fiscal Year 1964. Squadron Head-quarters was located at Fort Campbell, Kentucky, with tributary-teams located at Blytheville AFB, Arkansas, McGhee-Tyson MAP, Knoxville, Tennessee and Dobbins AFB, Georgia. This arrangement created many travel and logistics problems ; how-ever, through thorough planning and strict supervision by the Squadron Commander, the field training was completed without incident or serious problem areas. This unit has an excellent record and has a history of being operational before other units of the Group to which assigned. F. Schools USAF and other service technical schools listed in the USAF Formal Schools Catalog are available to Air National Guard members. Advanced and lateral courses have not been used to a great extent during this period since mission equipment has not been changed during this period. Non-prior service personnel enlisting in the Air National Guard are required to complete a minimum of four months active duty for training as a condition of enlistment and in order to become basically qualified in duty Air Force speciality. Due to a requirement that period of active duty begin within 120 days after enlistment, an individual cannot be enlisted until an Air Force service school space has been made available by the National Guard Bureau. The four months active duty requirement may be completed by attending USAF Basic Mili-tary Training for eight weeks (scheduled to be changed to six weeks in October 1964) and returning to home station for OJT at the three level until four months active duty for training is completed, attending USAF Basic and USAF Technical School and returning to home station for five level OJT until active duty is completed or attending Basic Military Training and USAF Service School where duration is four or more months. After the initial active duty training period, airman receives training toward a higher skill level through an effective on-the-job training program. Each airman is tested as phases of the training program are completed and tested by the Air Force Report of The Adjutant General 39 Test Control Officer prior to being awarded a higher level Air Force Speciality. USAF Service School spaces have been extremely limited during this period. For this reason, North Carolina Air National Guard units have experienced a decrease in assigned strength. The manpower limitations (drill pay ceiling referred to in an-other part of this report) have a direct effect on the number of service school spaces made available by the National Guard Bureau. As the Air National Guard neared the 75,000 drill pay ceiling, it was noted that an excess number of non-rated officers existed in comparison with the number of rated officers on aboard. It appeared that it would be necessary to separate a number of non-rated officers ; however, a decision was made to reduce the number of non-prior service enlistments by reducing the number of non-prior service school spaces. This action per-mitted units to retain non-rated officers scheduled for elimina-tion. The curtailment of USAF Service School spaces for non-prior service airmen provided the necessary funds for the fi-nancial support of the non-rated officers. We are faced with a numbers game until the drill pay ceiling is raised. Whether a problem occurs in training, manpower, fly-ing or any other functional area, the drill pay ceiling is a domi-nant factor. We must look to an increase in this ceiling from the present 75,000 to an authorization which will assure a drill pay ceiling not less than 90% of unit manning document strength. This would amount to some 90,000 drill pay spaces throughout the Air National Guard. G. Air Technician Program Air Technician management and supervisory functions have been decentralized under the provisions of ANGR 40-01 and are performed under the direction of the Base Detachment Com-mander, North Carolina Air National Guard, Charlotte, N. C. In this capacity, the Base Detachment Commander directs the activities of the Air Technician Detachment, Charlotte, N. C, and the Air Technician Detachment, 263 Communications Squad-ron (TT), Badin, N. C. Air Technicians perform those functions and duties which cannot be performed by Air National Guard members while in a military status. A supplement to ANGR 40-01 has been issued and this direc-tive establishes policies and procedures relating to administra-tion of the Air Technician Detachment. Procedures and policies 40 Report of The Adjutant General contained in the supplement are based on Air Force directives insofar as possible. A special effort was made to assure avail-ability of adequate documentation thereby establishing approved audit trails. A noteworthy accomplishment was the mechaniza-tion of the civilian payroll and civilian time and attendance reporting. Some of the manual systems are being maintained while mechanization is on trial basis. This is especially true in the time and attendance reporting area. Manual leave records are being maintained pending receipt of additional information from the National Guard Bureau. This constitutes a duplication of effort; however, the extra effort will be worthwhile since detailed internal operating instructions have not been issued by the National Guard Bureau. The manpower authorizations for the Detachment at Char-lotte, N. C. are based on certain military factors and the success of military units in meeting established goals. One of the most important factors is assigned pilot strength. Pilot strength has been a problem area throughout the Air National Guard. The Air National Guard flying unit at Charlotte, N. C. has maintain-ed pilot strength at near the National Guard Bureau pro-grammed level throughout this period. National Guard Bureau programs Air Technicians for "under 37 pilots" or "over 37 pilots." We have remained in the latter category. During this period, the National Guard Bureau established a Standard Manning Document System. This standard document is intended to authorize identical manpower spaces to units possessing similar aircraft. This system cannot be followed in all situations due to difference in support responsibilities. The standard documents are designed to show requirements for the basic manning of an Air Technican Detachment. Due to man-power limitations, and primarily due to overall pilot shortages, the National Guard Bureau has not been in a position to fund for authorized manpower spaces. The requirements or manpower spaces shown on the most recent Air Technician Manning Document indicate an authoriza-tion of 151 spaces for the flying base; however, we are limited to a monthly average of 135 employees during the Fiscal Year. The Base Detachment Commander is authorized to fill those positions which, in his opinion, are most essential to the per-formance of the primary mission of the flying base. The present manning policy creates an austere situation. In some instances, it has been necessary to curtail employment in some areas in Report of The Adjutant General 41 order to employ personnel essential to the successful accomp-lishment of the flying mission. The Air Technician Detachment can always use additional manpower. The year round concept of field training and local OJT program for non-prior service personnel completing active duty for training requirements have provided some relief. It is hoped that additional permanent Air Technician positions will be made available as overall pilot strength increases and the manpower ceiling (drill pay spaces) is raised. The Air Technician manning standard applicable to the 263 Communications Squadron (TT) indicates a requirement for 13 employees. Due to limitations in man-years authorized for the State, this unit is permitted 11 permanent employees. In addi-tion, special provisions for employment of temporary employees have been effectively used by this unit. The Air Technicians are a force of highly skilled personnel and the "backbone" of the Air National Guard program. The technicians have continued their leadership role in making our Air National Guard units a most valuable part of the Air Force. The continuing effort on the part of the National Guard Bureau and the National Guard Association of the United States to secure a well deserved retirement program is indicative of high level regard for this force. H. Air Advisors The major air commands designated as gaining commands for Air National Guard units have continued to provide qualified personnel to supervise the trainings in preparation for perform-ance of the Federal mission. When the North Carolina Air Na-tional Guard flying unit experienced a mission change, Hq, MATS, withdrew manpower spaces which were supporting the medical aspects of the aeromedical transport mission. As a re-sult of this policy, the flight nurse and medical service officer advisors were reassigned. Advisor functions in these areas are now performed by officers assigned to Air National Guard Transport Wings. With the mission change, it was necessary to provide advisor functions in the navigator career area. A fully qualified navigator was assigned and this officer has given valu-able assistance to the navigator training and qualification pro-gram. Three officers and six airmen, assigned to Detachment 33, EASTAF, are available to perform air advisor functions. The officers assigned and functional responsibilities are as follows: 42 Report of The Adjutant General Rank, Name, AFSN Function Lt Col Jack H. Sisson, 33584A Senior Air Force Advisor Lt Col William H. Byron, Jr., Navigator Advisor A0669194 Major Erick R. Ahokas, A02079228 Pilot/ Simulator Advisor The Air Force Advisor to the 263 Communications Squadron (TT) is Major Arthur S. Gustafson, A0591153. He was assigned to advisor duty by the major gaining command, Air Force Communications Service and is under the supervision of the intermediate gaining command, Hq, Central Communications Region, Tinker AFB, Oklahoma. Major Gustafson has been on duty with the 263 Communications Squadron (TT) since May 1961. He is a fully qualified communications officer and has at-tended formal service schools providing instruction in communi-cation operations and maintenance. He is assisted by a technical assistant, well qualified in the communication operations career area. One airman is assigned to the 156 Weather Flight, Mobile, as Technical Advisor. This airman has provided outstanding assist-ance to the Commander, 156 Weather Flight, Mobile, as well as providing daily support to the flying base. SECTION X SIMPLIFIED FISCAL STATEMENT The financial report of the operations of the Department is made on the fiscal year basis. This report is being made to cover the Fiscal Years of 1962-1963 and 1963-1964. The audited reports for the fiscal years ending June 30, 1962, and June 30, 1963, are incorporated in this report to the Governor. The Fiscal Year 1963-1964 reports have not been audited and will be shown in the next Report of The Adjutant General. The following figures are a consolidation of the expenses of The Adjutant General's Department and the North Carolina Armory Commission for the period July 1, 1962, thru June 30, 1964. For the sake of simplicity, the items have been rounded out to the nearest dollar, and, therefore, to that extent are inexact. Attention is directed to the fact that in the operation of The Adjutant General's Department we had the benefit of $156,340.00 Federal contributions during this period.

Exhibit "A" and its supporting schedules for the one year report of the activity of the Maintenance Fund of the Department and are self-explana-tory. Exhibit "B" and its supporting schedule reports the activity of the Main-tenance Fund of the North Carolina Armory Commission. In accordance with G. S. 143-236.1, the unexpended balance remaining in the Maintenance Fund of the Commission (Code 12023) is transferred at the close of the fiscal year to Code 65111, the Permanent Improvement Fund of 1951. At June 30, 1962 $23,681.52 was transferred. Exhibit "C" reports the activity of the Permanent Improvement Fund of 1951 (Code 65111). This fund is provided for the purpose of constructing and helping to maintain certain armories for which the Department is re-sponsible. It will be noted that in the year ended June 30, 1962 $14,982.54 was realized from the sale of timber at Camp Butner. This is the first such revenue since 1957 but more is expected in the future. Exhibit "D" and its supporting schedule reports the activity of the Per-manent Improvement Fund of 1957 (Code 65706). This fund is provided for the purpose of constructing new armories. The Federal Government supplies certain funds for this purpose, and city and county organizations also assist. Since the percentage of Federal, City and County, and State Funds available differ as to each location, it was necessary to set up detail records by contract, for each armory constructed. For year ended June 30, 1962 Exhibit "E" is a report of Capital Improve-ment Fund of 1961, Code 66120, which reports receipts and expenditures in connection with the construction of the new Military Center on Reedy Creek Park Road, Raleigh. It is expected that this area will be ready for full occupancy the latter part of 1964. Exhibit "F" for year ended June 30, 1962 is a Statement of Capital Assets. Report of The Adjutant General 45 General All receipts of record were found to be deposited with the State Treasurer. We examined a representative number of invoices, vouchers, payrolls, checks and other data in support of expenditures. They were found in good order and properly classified. We wish to express to the General and his staff our appreciation for the courtesies and cooperation extended us during this assignment. Respectfully submitted, HENRY L.

PROPERTY AND FISCAL OFFICER FISCAL YEARS 1963 AND 1964 25 September 1964 TO: The Adjutant General, State of North Carolina GENERAL INFORMATION The following report on the operation of activities of the USPFO for North Carolina for Fiscal Years 1963 and 1964, beginning 1 July 1962 and ending 30 June 1964, is respectfully submitted. The USPFO is authorized this State under the provisions of Title 32, U. S. Code, Section 708. The required duties of the position are prescribed in Federal Statutes which are implemented by the Secretary of the Army and the Secretary of the Air Force by means of Army and Air Force Regu-lations, National Guard Bureau Regulations and other directives. In broad terms, he is responsible for the financial planning, obligating, accounting, reporting and administrative control of all Federally appropriated funds allotted to the State for the support of Army and Air National Guard ac-tivities. In addition to his Comptroller functions, he is responsible for requisitioning, receipt, issue, shipment, disposition and accounting for all supplies furnished and equipment loaned to the State by the Federal Gov-ernment for the training support of Federally recognized Army and Air National Guard units and activities in the State. The USPFO is also specifi-cally designated by the National Guard Bureau as the Purchasing and Con-tracting Officer and the Transportation Officer for the National Guard of this State. Annex B to this report contains a breakdown of the functions of the Divisions and Offices of this Activity in the two years covered by the report. To assist the USPFO in carrying out his responsibilities, this office is authorized a total of fifty-nine (59) technician employees under the Army Technician Program. In March 1964, the manning structure for these tech-nician employees was reorganized in accordance with functional criteria developed by the National Guard Bureau on a nationwide basis. Under the Air National Guard Technician Program, technicians are provided for this purpose at North Carolina Air National Guard activities located at Douglas Municipal Airport, Charlotte, N. C. Colonel Thomas B. Longest, who was appointed to the position effective 1 May 1959, served as USPFO for the State during the period of this re-port. FACILITIES The present USPFO Office and Warehouse building, Reedy Creek Road, Raleigh, N. C, was completed in December 1962. The Building was con-structed with 100% Federal Funds except for the site and grading which were furnished from State Funds. All activities of the USPFO, previously operating at three different locations, were moved into this new building 76 Report of The Adjutant General in the latter part of December 1962. The operation of all activities in one location has increased operational efficiency and service to the units and organizations of the Guard. In May 1964, the Office of the USPFO of this Department was one of the eight USPFO offices selected nationwide by the National Guard Bureau in which a complete IBM Automatic Data Processing System will be installed this year. This ADPE will require addi-tional floor space, air conditioning and humidity control in the present Machine Room of the USPFO building. Contracts in the amount of $4,461.00 (100% Federal Funds) have been approved to provide the additional facili-ties required for this new activity. It is believed the ADPE installation will be completed and operational on or about 1 October 1964 to provide Auto-matic Machine Accounting for the Office of the USPFO and other staff sections of the Department. LOGISTICS The total cost value of property assigned to this State for use by the Army National Guard as of 30 June 1964 was $40,000,000.00. (This includes items earmarked in FTECS with a total cost value of $11,500,000.00). The total cost value of property assigned to the State for the Air National Guard as of 30 June 1964 was $17,132,218.00. During the period of this report continuous emphasis has been placed on all phases of logistical man-agement to insure proper utilization of assets, utilization of available fund-ing, equal distribution of equipment, development of realistic requirements and improvement of our service to the using units. The limited funding available for supplies and equipment has again precluded the procurement of many essential items. On 1 March 1963, the 30th Infantry Division was reorganized from ROCID TO ROAD Concept requiring redistribution of equipment which was completed in approximately 120 days. On 10 March 1964, a minor reorganization and realignment of the 30th Infantry Division made it necessary to redistribute a number of major items of equipment. This was accomplished in approximately 60 days. A Self Service Supply Center was established 1 July 1963 providing a source for procurement of expendable items by the using units with a minimum of documentation. Dur-ing this period a number of new type items of clothing and equipment were procured and issued to include Shoes, Low-Quarter Black, Garrison Cap, New-Type Load Carrying equipment and specialized clothing and equip-ment for Special Forces unit. In addition, considerable improvement was made in the status of our Major items of heavy equipment and a listing of these is contained in Annex D to this report. A new Equipment Status Reporting System was installed 1 July 1963 utilizing IBM Equipment which provides information as to equipment authorization by TOE, OEG, COA and total on hand at each unit of the Army National Guard. This system also provides information as to the "on hand" substitute equipment by Tech-nical Service in the State. The uniform procedures utilized by the Depart-ment of the Army (MILSTRIP) for requisitioning and accounting for sup-plies was installed 1 July 1962 using IBM and NCR equipment. An addi-tional system to reduce property accounting and paperwork was initiated at the close of FY 1964 which is designated as "SALTI" (Summary Ac-counting for Low-Dollar Turn-over Items). In this system, units and Report of The Adjutant General 77 activities forward a 'shopping list' to the USPFO Warehouse and are fur-nished the items without formal accountability. CONTRACTS AND CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS The Non-Armory construction projects completed for the Army National Guard during the period of this report consisted of parking area and access road work at Fort Bragg and construction of the USPFO Office and Ware-house at Raleigh. This new building is located on Reedy Creek Road and was constructed with 100% Federal Funds at a total cost of $335,721.00 which did not include the site and grading furnished from State funds. Non-Armory construction contracts in the amount of $401,542.00 (100% Federal funds) were awarded 12 July 1963 for the construction of a new Combined Support Maintenance Shop on Reedy Creek Road, Raleigh, N. C, to replace outmoded facilities now used at Butner, N. C, which were con-structed in World War II. This new facility will be completed in FY 1965. Extensive repair and construction projects were completed at Charlotte, N. C, for the N. C. Air National Guard during the period of this report. At this time, the dismantling of two aircraft maintenance docks, located at Charleston, S. C, and the moving of such materials to the Air National Guard facility at Charlotte is being accomplished. The structures will be re-erected to provide additional maintenance facilities for C121 Aircraft. This relocation project will cost $172,345.00 using 100% Federal funds. Annex C to this report contains a listing of all Non-Armory projects com-pleted during this reporting period arranged according to locations. COMPTROLLER Total Federal Funds including pay for Inactive Duty Training were expended for support of the National Guard in this State in the amount of $10,678,690.20 during FY 1963, and $11,101,993.83 during FY 1964. A break-down of these expenditures is included in Annex A to this report. Effective 1 July 1962, Army and Air National Guard civilian technicians were en-rolled under the N. C. State Employees Retirement System with the em-ployers share of cost being paid jointly from Federal and State funds. Financial Inventory Accounting by Journal Accounting was eliminated as of 30 June 1964 and future Supply Management Reports will be computed from information on the Stock Record Cards. INSPECTIONS The activities of the USPFO were inspected once each Fiscal Year by the Third U. S. Army Inspector General and a rating of Superior was re-ceived on each of these inspections. The vehicles and equipment used by the USPFO Warehouse were in-spected by Command Maintenance Inspection Teams each Fiscal Year and there were no reportable deficiencies on either of these inspections. The Office of the Inspector General, Western Transport Air Force, con-ducted a general inspection of Headquarters, N. C. Air National Guard, Charlotte, N. C, during the period 18-20 June 1963. No ratings are given 78 Report of The Adjutant General on inspections conducted by regular Air Force personnel; however, the report noted that accounts maintained by the Assistant USPFO's for this office were adequately maintained. In addition to the inspections and audits by other agencies or higher headquarters, audit personnel of this office conducted thirteen (13) internal reviews of various USPFO functions in the period covered by this report to check and evaluate financial and internal controls. APPRECIATION I wish to express my appreciation to the personnel of this Office who have supported me wholeheartedly and loyally in this assignment and with-out whose help and cooperation the Office could not have functioned as efficiently as it has or attained the ratings on our inspections as outlined above. I would also like to acknowledge the helpful advice and splendid cooperation and assistance provided by Major General Claude T. Bowers, The Adjutant General, and Brigadier Generals William J. Payne and Roy E. Thompson, The Assistant Adjutants General for Air and Army, respec-tively. In addition, the support and assistance rendered by the other mem-bers of The Adjutant General's Department and all units and activities of the North Carolina National Guard has been outstanding and for this we are most grateful. We pledge our continued efforts toward all progress pos-sible in the years ahead and will continually strive to help produce in our State the best Army and Air National Guard units in our Nation.
