Departments of the Army and the Air Force 

National Guard Bureau 

Washington, D.C., 30 June 1964 

TO THE SECRETARIES OF THE ARMY AND THE AIR FORCE: 

The Annual Report of the Chief, National Guard Bureau, for the fiscal 

year ending 30 June 1964, is respectfully submitted. 

Gratefully acknowledged is the continued support of The President and of 

The Congress of the United States; the Departments of Defense, the Army, 

and the Air Force; the Governors and the military departments of the several 

States, Puerto Rico, and the District of Columbia. 

The period covered by this report is significant in the history of the National 

Guard for the marked advances of both the Army National Guard and Air 

National Guard toward their mobilization readiness goals, and the emphasis on 

teamwork between them and with the active Services. Army National Guard 

and Air National Guard units participated in large scale joint Service exercises 

during the year-DESERT STRIKE, SWIFT STRIKE III, GUARDLIFT I. 

Also,, they joined the respective active establishments in single Service exercises. 

They continued to perform missions in support of the active establishments. 

These missions included surface-to-air and air-to-air defense of the mainland 

United States and Hawaii, global cargo transport, photo reconnaissance, and 

communications —most valuable types of training. 

Another significant training advance was the increase in the number of 

weekend training assemblies for the Army National Guard which enabled the 

conduct of more complex training problems, not possible in single evening training assemblies. 

In the more than three centuries which have passed since the "train bands" 

were formed by the early settlers in this country, Army National Guard and Air 

National Guard units and personnel have spanned the continent, and have crossed 

the waters to embrace the new States of Hawaii and Alaska, and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. They have developed as teams skilled in the use of the 

methods and sophisticated weapons systems of modern warfare. Together, they 

stand READY ". . . wherever a strong arm and valiant spirit must defend the 

Nation, in peace and war ... "

Congress appropriated $733,844,000 for the Army and Air National Guard in FY 1964. 

While a substantial sum, this represents less than 2 percent of the entire FY 1964 Department of 

Defense appropriation. 

Yet through the unique Federal-State partnership which characterizes the National Guard, these 

annual appropriations have made possible the development and maintenance of a significant portion of 

the United States military strength, not only to augment the active Army and Air Force in time of 

national peril, but to perform essential service in peacetime as well.

MISSION OF 

THE NATIONAL GUARD 

The National Guard is rooted in the concept of the privilege and responsibility of our 

able-bodied citizens to be ready at all times to bear arms for the common defense. This tradition was begun in the early seventeenth century, with the development of militia bands in the 

various colonies. The framers of the Constitution recognized the importance of the concept by 

empowering the Congress to "provide for organizing, arming and disciplining the militia." National military policy subsequently enacted into law has served to enhance the availability and 

improve the readiness of the National Guard as a Federal reserve force. The general policy 

stated in current law (Section 102, Title 32, United States Code) is quoted: 

In accordance with the traditional military policy of the United States, it is essential that the strength and organization of the Army National Guard and the Air National Guard as an integral part of the first line defenses of the United States be maintained and assured at all times. Whenever Congress determines that more units and 

organizations are needed for the national security than are in the regular components 

of the ground and air forces, the Army National Guard and the Air National Guard 

of the United States, or such parts of them as are needed, together with such units of 

other reserve components as are necessary for a balanced force, shall be ordered to 

active Federal duty and retained as long as so needed. 

While its Federal reserve potential has been strengthened, the National Guard of each State 

remains constitutionally a State-administrated military force. The dual State-Federal missions 

are set forth in National Guard Regulation No. 45, and Air National Guard Regulation No. 

20-1. The State mission is to provide units organized, trained, and equipped that under competent orders of Federal or State authorities will provide protection of life and property and 

preserve peace, order and public safety. The Federal mission is to provide units with trained 

personnel and sufficient and suitable equipment, capable and ready for mobilization in time of 

war or national emergency to support the Army and Air Force. 
The Army National Guard in Our 

"One Army" 

The Army National Guard, an integral part of 

the first line defenses, complements the active Army 

and supports the Army missions as illustrated in 

the chart below. 

First are shown the Army's world-wide overseas 

commitments, in Europe, Southeast Asia, Middle East 

and Korea. 

Next are the Army Forces in the Continental 

United States and those prepared for early deployment overseas. These include Air Defense Missile 

Units, the Strategic Army Corps (STRAC), and 

the support base for the entire Army. Organizations 

of the Army National Guard integrated with these 

first line defenses include: 

• Army National Guard Nike batteries with 

units of the active Army in the "Round-the-Clock" 

defenses of key industrial areas. 

• Guard units rounding out the Strategic Army 

Corps. The remaining Army National Guard units 

shown in the bottom are: 

• Six ARNG Division Forces of the Army's 

22-Division Force which will move up to replace 

STRAC divisions as they are deployed overseas. 

• Two ARNG Special Mission Divisions programmed for employment in specific critical areas in 

support of war plans. 

• Eleven Infantry and four Armored Divisions 

together with the nondivisional combat, combat 

support and technical services units needed for full 

mobilization. 

ARMY NATIONAL GUARD 

'AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE FIRST LINE DEFENSES' 

Air National Guard: A Global Force 

Similarly, the Air National Guard fits into and 

supports U. S. Air Force missions as shown on the 

chart below: 

At the top are the Air Force's world-wide 

commitments, such as NATO, SEATO, Middle 

East, and the Far East. 

Next are shown the gaining commands to which 

Air Guard units are assigned upon mobilization. 

These include the Tractical Air Command (TAC), 

Air Defense Command (ADC), Military Air Transport Service (MATS), Alaskan Air Command 

(AAC), Air Force Logistics Command (AFLC) 

and the Air Force Communications Service (AFCS). 

In addition, the Hawaii Air National Guard is 

committed to the Pacific Air Forces (PACAF) and 

one Air Guard communications unit is committed 

to the Air University at Maxwell Air Force Base, 

Alabama. 

The bottom line reflects the types of units 

comprising the ANG force structure. As the arrows 

indicate, some Air Guard units are serving in 

peacetime as integral elements of active Air Force 

commands. For instance, all ANG Fighter-Interceptor squadrons assigned to the Air Defense 

Command maintain a 24-hour runway alert at all 

times under ADC control. Air Guard tactical 

squadrons perform peacetime missions for TAC. 

ANG heavy transports carry cargo for MATS. 

Air Guard Ground Electronics Engineering (GEEIA) 

Squadrons handle communications construction 

projects on USAF missile sites and other bases.

The National Guard Bureau is both a staff 

and operating agency. As the chart shows, it is 

a joint Bureau of the Departments of the Army 

and the Air Force. The Chief, National Guard 

Bureau, reports to the Secretaries of the Army 

and the Air Force through the respective Chiefs 

of Staff and is the principal staff adviser on National Guard affairs. 

As an operating agency, the National Guard 

Bureau is the channel of communication between 

the States and the Departments of the Army and 

the Air Force. (AR 130-5/AFR 45-2 which implements section 3015(a) of title 10, United States 

Code, as amended by Section 12, Department of

The organization of the National Guard Bureau 

is shown on this chart. At the end of FY 1964, 

the office of the Assistant Chief, NGB, Army National Guard, was organized into five divisions, and 

the office of the Assistant Chief, NGB, Air National Guard, was organized into six divisions. 

Also, in the Bureau "overhead" organization were 

the Administrative Office and the Office of the 

Legal Adviser; Office of Public Affairs; and Office of Plans, Policy, and Programs. Two new 

offices were added during FY 1964: Special Assistant for Congressional Liaision, History, and 

Reports; and Special Assistant for Data Systems. 

These offices advise and assist the Chief, National 

Guard Bureau on both Army and Air matters. 

The National Guard Bureau personnel strength

The function of the National Guard Bureau 

is to formulate and administer a program for the 

development and maintenance of Army and Air 

National Guard units in the several States, the 

Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and the District 

of Columbia, in accordance with Departments of 

the Army and Air Force policy and the dual State 

and Federal missions prescribed in law and regulations. 

The Chief of the National Guard Bureau is 

appointed by the President, with the advice and 

consent of the Senate, from a list of National 

Guard officers recommended by the respective Governors, for a term of four years, and is eligible to 

succeed himself. The grade authorized for this 

position is major general. 

The former Chiefs of the National Guard Bureau 

and its predecessor organizations (Division of Militia 

Affairs, 1908-1916, and Militia Bureau, 1916-1933) 

are listed in Appendix A. A roster of officers on 

duty in the National Guard Bureau as of 30 June 

1964 is attached as Appendix D. Appendixes B 

and C, respectively, show the State Adjutants General and United States Property and Fiscal Officers 

as of 30 June 1964. 

MANAGEMENT 

IMPROVEMENT 

Army National Guard 

All states have been producing punched cards to 

meet Federal requirements for over a year. Demands 

upon the Army National Guard for statistical information necessitate more rapid assimilation of 
data to satisfy basic needs of management at State 

and Department of the Army level and increasingly 

detailed requirements of Department of Defense. 

The plan developed and forwarded for approval 

in July 1963 provided the USPFO of each State 

with a basic punch card machine system (PCMS). 

This included the following items, where available: 

Printing Punch, Verifier, Sorter, Collator, Reproducing Punch, Accounting Machine, Control Panels, 

Card Cabinets. 

The PCMS for USPFO's enabled transfer to 

punched cards of all records now maintained by the 

several USPFOs. As types of records are mechanized, 

so will be the reports required from these records. 

This change-over will be coordinated by the National 

Guard Bureau through dissemination of uniform 

procedures, making applicable existing Army Regulations already adapted to PCMS. Such coordination 

will insure compatibility with the present system 

since the PCMS will not be simultaneously installed 

in all 52 USPFO offices. The complexity of the 

Army National Guard program in most States is 

equivalent to that of an army, and analysis is 

subject to further improvement. 

The new systems provide needed input for 

National Guard Bureau reports required for management of the entire program and input into Army 

and Defense data banks. A number of automatic 

data processing (ADP) support equipment items 

have been purchased in various quantities for each 

of the States, Puerto Rico, and the District of 

Columbia. 

The Combined Support Maintenance Shops and 

the Field Training Equipment Concentration Sites 

in each State were requested to report man-hours 

worked and items completed each month for maintenance operations in designated production accounts, 

which were further divided into major categories 

according to the technical services (or commodity 

managers) having responsibility for the end item 

concerned. In addition, special accounts were 

established for reporting man-hours utilized in 

general overhead, administrative functions and other 

operations peculiar to the National Guard. 

Performance standards in terms of man-hours 

per work unit have been established in each major 

category. These standards have been applied to 

projected workloads of each State based on equipment 

densities, with allowances for age of equipment 

and/or miles operated. 

The Office of the USPFO in each State was 

divided into 12 functional areas plus a General 

Administration area. Work units were selected 

representing the major workload in each area, and 

a system for reporting work units completed and 

man-hours utilized was designed. 

Implementation of the manning criteria was 

completed in the fourth quarter FY 1964. 

States requiring an excessive number of manhours per work unit as compared to others reviewed 

their operations to simplify procedures, eliminate 

duplication of effort and curtail nonessential activities. 

Personnel from the National Guard Bureau assisted 

the States in adapting their USPFO organizations 

to the manning criteria by conducting manpower 

and management surveys in critical areas. 

Air National Guard 

Major progress toward organizational standardization and greater mission effectiveness was the 

basic characteristic of this period. Of greatest 

import was the change in mission of the Air National 

Guard Aeromedical Transport units to the Air 

Transport mission. The National Guard Bureau 

maintained that it made little sense to confine an 

aircraft with a global "live mission" capability to 

a mission involving primarily "simulated loads." 

This action eliminated the "augmented squadron" 

from the Air National Guard and placed all units 

in the self supporting wing, group, squadron setup, 

thereby greatly improving mobilization capability. 

Other organizational improvements achieved in the 

period were: 

a. Completion of implementation of the Double 

Deputy organizational structure in all Air National 

Guard units with assignment to Tactical Air Command 

and Military Air Transport Service, and initiation 

of conversion action in units assigned to Air Defense 

Command. 

b. Reorganization of all units of the Hawaii 

Air National Guard to "tailor" the Double Deputy 

concept to the unique operational environment 

existent in that state. 

c. Reorganization of all Air National Guard 

Weather Flights from "Fixed" to "Mobile" units 

in order to maintain organizational and mission 

compatibility with revised equipage schedule. 

d. Change in designation of four units from 

"Troop Carrier" to "Air Commando" units.

LEGISLATION 

Legislation Enacted 

Public Law 88-149, the Department of Defense 

Appropriation Act for FY 64. 

Public Law 88-220, the Military Construction 

Appropriation Act for FY 64. 

Public Law 88-110. Amends the Universal 

Military Training and Service Act, to provide a uniform 6 year Ready Reserve obligation for all persons enlisted or appointed in the National Guard 

or in any component of the Armed Forces after 

3 September 1963 and before attaining age 26, and 

requiring them to perform not less than four consecutive months of active duty for training. 

Public Law 88-132. The Uniformed Services 

Pay Act of 1963, increases the pay of members 

of the Armed Forces, including the National Guard 

when performing duty authorized by title 32, United 

States Code. 

Pending Legislation 

H.R. 2500. The bill would authorize the payment of per diem to members of the National Guard 

and reserve components while performing full time 

training duty away from home on the same basis 

as temporary duty allowances are authorized for 

members on active duty. 

H.R. 2501. The bill would extend the authority 

for promotions in commissioned grades as Reserves 

of the Army and of the Air Force, to fill unit 

vacancies, without regard to over-all grade limitations. (Subsequently enacted as Public Law 88-

620, to expire 1 July 1965). 

H.R. 2502. The bill would authorize remission 

or cancellation of administratively determined indebtedness to the Federal government of enlisted 

members of the National Guard or reserve components. 

H.R. 2504. The bill would provide for the 

retention in an active status of reserve commissioned 

officers, employed by the National Guard or reserve components as civilian technicians, who would 

otherwise be removed from an active status by reason 

of length of service or other attritive provisions, 

for a period of not to exceed two years if they could 

thereby qualify for an Immediate annuity under a Federal or State retirement system covering their civilian 

employment. It would make permanent the recurring annual appropriation act provisions suspending the limitations on the grade of officers and 

numbers in a "pool;" authorize the use of technicians for the maintenance and repair of military 

property of the regular and reserve components; 

correlate the compensation of technicians with that 

of Federal Civil Service employees in the same 

geographical locality; provide retirement benefits for 

all National Guard technicians; provide life insurance and health benefits to National Guard technicians. It would credit full-time training duty 

performed by members of the National Guard under Federal authority for the purposes of the Federal Civil Service Retirement Act to the same extent as active duty for training performed by members of reserve components is now creditable. 

H.R. 2505. The bill would grant the HUM 

hospital and medical care, pay and allowances, and 

other benefits for members of the National Guard 

or reserve components who contract or aggravate • 

disease in line of duty while proceeding directly to 

or from, or performing, inactive duty training or 

active duty for 30 days or less as are now provided for such individuals while on duty for ordered 

periods of over 30 days. It would also grant the 

same entitlement to benefits to those National 

Guardsmen and reservists who are injured in line 

of duty while proceeding directly to or from inactive 

duty training or active duty as they would receive 

were the injury incurred during the scheduled period 

of training or duty. 

H.R. 2506. This bill would authorize the 

States to provide for a system of courts-martial for 

the National Guard not in Stale service without 

regard to the provisions of sections 326-333 of 

title 32, United States Code 

H.R. 2509. This bill would authorize combining service in two or more reserve components 

for the purpose of receiving the uniform maintenance 

allowance. (Subsequently enacted into law as Public Law 88-624). 

H.R. 2512. The bill would clarify the authority 

of the respective service Secretaries to authorize 

training or duty, with or without pay, for units 
and members of the National Guard in addition 

to the 48 unit assemblies and 15 days full time 

field training now specifically authorized. It would 

also clarify the status of members of the National 

Guard while attending or instructing at schools conducted by the National Guard, such as State 

Officer Candidate Schools. (Subsequently enacted 

into law as Public Law 88-621). 

PUBLIC AFFAIRS 

The Public Affairs program of the National 

Guard Bureau has two goals—first, to recruit and 

retain Army and Air National Guard personnel 

and second, to plan and coordinate public relations activities on the national level. 

A total of $400,000 from Federal appropriations was expended during fiscal year 1964. Almost 

all of the amount was contracted to a commercial 

advertising agency for the development and production of printed, radio, and television materials 

to be distributed to the States and directly to 

media. 

During FY 64, a new theme was introduced 

in the advertising campaign to win recruits for 

the National Guard. Called the "Challenge" theme, 

it asked potential Guardsmen "Are You Good 

Enough?" to be a member of the National Guard. 

It was aimed both at interesting the kind of recruit 

who would be an asset to the Guard and at emphasizing the higher, more demanding readiness 

requirements that have been placed on the Guard. 

Seniors and the Service, the most popular item 

last year, was reprinted again in FY 64 and a 

folder was produced to explain the new Flexible 

Training Program that became law during the year. 

Great emphasis was placed in FY 64 on localizing material in answer to requests for such material from the States. A billboard poster and 

two transit car cards were printed with local State 

designations on each item. 

The following chart lists the printed materials 

produced and sent to the States in FY 64 with the

In the area of public relations and information, 

representatives of the Office of Public Affairs (OPA) 

were sent or National Guardsmen were put on active duty to represent OPA at important events in 

which the National Guard participated over the 

year. National Guard officers worked in the press 

center during Exercise DESERT STRIKE and at 

William Tell, the Air Force World-Wide Fighter 

Interceptor Weapons Meet, which an Air National 

Guard squadron won. A Public Affairs representative helped with publicity during the ceremony 

which accompanied the arrival of the first F-105 

into the Guard at McGuire AFB, New Jersey, 

and one was sent to cover the National Guard's 

part in the aftermath of the Alaskan earthquake. 

A representative was also sent to interview the first 

astronaut chosen from the Air National Guard. 

OPA helped publicize the first ANG non-stop deployments to Alaska and Puerto Rico, as well as 

12 
several People-to-People missions accomplished by 

the Air Guard's transport aircraft. Again this 

year, the Office of Public Affairs ran a press center 

at the National Rifle and Pistol Matches at Camp 

Perry, Ohio. 

An important objective of the FY 64 public 

relations program was to improve the flow of information on the National Guard to the active 

services. To further this objective, articles were 

placed in military journals and, on a monthly basis, 

contributions were made to the Air Reservist magazine and One Army Newsletter. Other news items 

were made available to Air Force News Service and 

Army News Features. In addition, OPA took over 

the responsibility of contributing to the Secretary 

of the Air Force's Staff Digest and made weekly 

contributions. 

Throughout the year, in the regular course of 

its activities, the Public Affairs Office handled numerous news releases, speeches, periodical and encyclopedia articles, and other materials cleared or 

released through Department of the Army, Department of the Air Force, and Department of Defense. 

"Guard Session," the weekly 15-minute show 

distributed to radio stations for free public service 

programming was sent on a monthly basis to some 

2200 stations. 

The following performers cut records for the 

show, which was hosted by Martin Block: Ella 

Fitzgerald, Johnny Mathis, Doris Day, Peggy Lee, 

Bobby Darin, Music Made Famous by Glenn Miller 

with Tex Beneke, Ray Eberle and the Modernaires, 

Connie Francis, Mitch Miller, The New Christy 

Minstrels and Eydie Gorme. 

The Air National Guard show, "Lombardoland, U.S.A.," was continued for the thirteenth 

consecutive year on the Mutual Broadcasting System. 

The artists who recorded "Guard Session" 

contributed to a radio spot announcement record, 

singing National Guard "Jingles." These records 

and two sets of printed spot announcements were 

sent to all stations in the United States. 

The fourth and fifth installments, one for the • 

Army and one for the Air National Guard, of the 

"two little fellas" animated television spot announcement series were distributed to all television stations 

in the United States. 

The mobile bus display depicting the role of 

the militia in the Civil War continued to tour the 

United States for display at fairs and other special 

events. In FY 64, the Militia-Mobile appeared in 

Colorado, Nebraska, Idaho, Arizona, Nevada, and 

Illinois. 

In addition, five-panel display units, a colorful 

exhibit with the theme "Your National Guard — 

Ready Then . . . Ready Now," was distributed 

on the basis of one per State. 

TROPHIES 

AND 

AWARDS PROGRAM 

The purpose of the trophies and awards program is to instill a spirit of wholesome rivalry 

among individuals, units, and organizations of the 

Army and Air National Guard and to stimulate 

their interest in such activities as marksmanship, 

technical proficiency in training, and maintenance. 

To this end, trophies and awards are given annually 

by the Chief, National Guard Bureau, and other 

sponsoring agencies to outstanding personnel and 

units in both the Army and Air National Guard. 

The National Guard Bureau is the coordinating 

agency for activities conducted under this program. 

Pamphlets and letters announcing trophy and award 

winners are published after each competition. Supplementary information is made available for release 

to the press. 

I i 
REGULATIONS

In the administration of National Guard affairs, 

National Guard Regulations and Air National Guard 

Regulations govern the National Guard when not 

in Federal service. These regulations announce the 

approved policies of the Department of the Army 

and Department of the Air Force pertaining to the 

Army and Air National Guard. Also, certain 

Army and Air Force Regulations govern the Army 

and Air National Guard when specifically applied 

by the Chief, National Guard Bureau. 

During Fiscal Year 1964, a number of existing 

regulations were revised or amended. In addition, 

new regulations and pamphlets were developed and 

published. A detailed resume is contained in Appendix F. 

PUBLICATIONS 

REVIEW BOARD 

The FY 1964 budget (Program 7413) for Department of the Army publications and blank forms 

was initially established at $1,000,000, and subsequently reduced to $825,000. Total obligations 

for the year, were $759,300. This reduction in 

obligations, as compared with FY 1963 ($863,600), 

is attributable to: 

1. Reduced procurement due to lack of publications funds by the active Army. 

2. Constant surveillance of actual, as opposed 

to desirable, requirements for Department of the 

Army publications and blank forms. 

3. Maximum utilization of available resources 

at all levels of command. 

During the past year, "pinpoint" distribution to 

Army Aviation Maintenance Shops was implemented. 

This insured continuous and direct flow of required 

mission publications to these activities. Preliminary 

steps were also taken for trial testing of pinpoint 

distribution to battalion level in October-November 

1964, to be conducted in the States of Kansas and 

Maryland. 

Requirements for Department of the Army publications and blank forms continued to increase as 

new and revised programs were proposed and implemented. These new programs included Military 

Occupational Specialty (MOS) testing, scheduled for 

14 
November 1964, implementation and Equipment 

Serviceability Criteria established by AR 750-10. 

Revision of the Army Equipment Record Procedures also increased substantially requirements for 

publications and blank forms. 

Non-obligation of available funds during the 

year, and full implementation of MOS testing will 

result in required additional funding support; however, actual requirements as opposed to "nice-tohave" will be carefully analyzed in an effort to 

minimize expenditures. 

STATE SERVICE 

Every State depends on the National Guard 

for assistance in natural disasters and extreme civil 

emergencies when control and recovery are beyond 

the capabilities of other State and municipal agencies. This State service rendered by the National 

Guard evidences the importance of the Guard to 

the States. 

In hundreds of instances.each year Governors 

of States have called out the National Guard to 

assist for periods ranging from a few hours to 

several weeks. The cost of these activities is borne 

entirely by the States. Duties in these instances 

include such things as sandbagging swollen rivers 

and streams, assisting in hurricanes, snow emergencies, forest fires, search and rescue, emergency 

traffic control, and quelling prison riots. The 

following brief accounts are only typical of State 

services rendered by the National Guard during 

FY 1964. 

Earthquake 

On Friday evening, 27 March 1964, an earthquake shook Alaska. Minutes after, the Adjutant 

General of Alaska left Juneau for Anchorage and 

State Headquarters officers were placed at Army 

Alaskan Command Headquarters to coordinate disaster assistance with the active Army, and collection of needed equipment was begun. 

About 1,350 Alaska Army National Guardsmen 

at Fort Richardson, packing to return home after 

two weeks of field training, were immediately alerted 

and within one hour after the quake were en route 

to Anchorage to assist local authorities in securing 

the downtown area and establishing radio communications between various State and City agencies. 

The National Guard Command Post was established in the Public Safety Building where coordination with the city police and Civil Defense 

authorities could be accomplished. Road blocks 

were set up in cooperation with active Army troops 

to close off the downtown area. Guardsmen set 

up radio communications in the Anchorage armory 

and after determining that the armory was safe for 

use reported it to Civil Defense as a shelter area. 

At the height of the emergency, the Army National Guard had 700 men on duty in Anchorage, 

not counting support personnel and additional troops 

at Fort Richardson still waiting their tour of duty. 

The National Guard Bureau extended the field training status of these Alaska Guardsmen three days to 

keep them on active duty. The units reverted to 

State status on 2 April 1964. 

At Kulis Air National Guard Base, adjacent 

to Anchorage International Airport, all available 

Air Guardsmen immediately began a survey of the 

Base, turning off broken water lines, gas and electricity. The International Airport terminal was 

badly damaged and the control tower had collapsed. Realizing the need for communications to 

any aircraft that might be preparing to land, Guardsmen started up a C-123 plane to use as an emergency tower. After inspection of the runways, 

they authorized an airline pilot, with whom they 

had made contact, to land. The runways were 

then closed to all other traffic, and all bases that 

could be contacted were instructed to relay this 

information. The C-123 continued to serve as a 

control tower for several hours. 

Within twenty minutes after the quake Air 

Guardsmen started arriving at the Base, without an 

official call. Emergency power plants and heaters 

were set up, the dispensary was prepared to take 

care of the injured, and beds were set up in the 

warehouse facility for refugees. Air Guardsmen 

responded to requests from Civil Defense authorities 

for patrols for the city to report damage and to 

inspect buildings for trapped people. 

Within a few hours after the quake, crews 

were available for most of the Guard's aircraft and 

the 144th Air Transport Squadron was standing 

by for emergency flights. 

A local radio station announced that the Air 

Guard Base was prepared to receive refugees and 

some 200 evacuees were housed at Kulis Air National Guard Base. 

/ 
An hour after the earthquake hit the Fort 

Richardson area, Seward's 2d Platoon, 216th Transportation Company, was put on State duty and ordered to go home where they were badly needed. 

Thirty miles outside of Anchorage the convoy came 

to an impassable landslide on the Seward Highway. 

The Guardsmen returned to Fort Richardson bringing the first news of the condition of the highway. 

At Seward and also Kodiak the Air Guard planes 

made the first reconnaissance of the destruction 

before landing, and returned with vital information 

on the condition of these two areas. 

Upon arrival at Seward, the unit immediately 

opened the armory as a refugee center, assisted in 

search and rescue missions, set up emergency messes, 

and worked with active army troops in establishing 

guard posts, evacuation routes and search areas. 

Guard electricians set to work on vital generators 

at the Seward hospital. 

At Kodiak the business district was obliterated 

by four huge tidal waves, and the Guard armory, 

the only major building remaining that could be 

used for the purpose, was opened as a food and 

shelter area. Guardsmen relieved a company of 

Marines from the nearby naval base of security 

responsibilities for the city, and established telephone 

communications to essential points. 

Air Guardsmen were the first to get into Valdez 

when a C-123 carrying a load of fuel oil landed 

on the usable half of the runway. Members of the 

two Eskimo Scout Battalions were flown to Valdez 

to assist the residents. By 1 April, the Eskimo 

Scouts, who were at Fort Richardson completing 

their annual field training, were all on their way 

home, using chartered non-scheduled airlines and 

bush pilots, in addition to dog sleds and skin boats. 

Alaska Army National Guard units on disaster duty were the 1st and 2d Scout Battalions of 

the 297th Infantry, the 3d Battalion, 297th Infantry; 216th Transportation Company; 910th Engineer Company; and Signal, Ordnance and Special 

Forces detachments. 

The Alaska Air National Guard's unit, the 

144th Air Transport Squadron, made flights in 

support of emergency assistance to the stricken 

area, carrying cargo of fuel oil, emergency generators, 

etc. The squadron assisted in the airlift of Guardsmen to their homes. By 3 April 1964, the unit 

had accomplished 25 missions, or 77 sorties, using 

68 flying hours. 

The National Guard of other States came to 

the assistance of Alaska. On 29 March, a squadron of the 146th Air Transport Wing, at Van Nuys, 

California, flew a C-97 carrying 18,000 pounds of 

medical and emergency supplies. The next day, 

three more C-97s were dispatched with cargo —one 

from Van Nuys and one each from the Wing's 

other two squadrons at Salt Lake City, Utah, and 

Phoenix, Arizona. On 4 and 5 April, two aircraft 

from the Van Nuys squadron carried about 30,000 

pounds of food and clothing collected by a local 

radio station in conjunction with the Salvation 

Army. Later a pre-fabricated building donated by 

a local concern for use as the Alaska Civil Defense Headquarters, was flown to Alaska. 

On 10 Aoril, a crew of 16 men from the 

144th Transportation Battalion, the Washington 

Army National Guard's sea-going force, left Tacoma 

with a 100-foot harbor tug which they delivered to 

officials in Alaska. The tug was used by the 

Alaska Railroad, a government agency, to help 

clear away and restore the docks and piers in the 

Anchorage area. 

Search and Rescue 

On Monday, 13 January 1964, a B-52 bomber 

carrying five Air Force crewmen and two nuclear 

weapons crashed at the foot of Big Savage Mountain, 20 miles from Cumberland, Maryland. The 

Army National Guard armory became the command post and communications center for the rescue 

effort which involved approximately 2,500 men from 

the Army, Air Force, Marines, National Guard, 

Civil Air Patrol, Civil Defense, and Red Cross, 

along with trucks, planes, helicopters, ambulances, 

jeeps and other vehicles. By Monday evening, 31 

Alaska Guardsman m July during eanhquake disaster 
Guardsmen of Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 115th Armor, still remained on duty. 

First, the road to the hilltop armory had to 

be cleared of over two feet of snow. The City 

of Cumberland pulled its snowplows off city streets 

and put them to work on the armory road. The 

armory was set up as a combined billet and Red 

Cross feeding center. 

Air Force teams coordinated the search and 

the Guardsmen assumed four major roles: They 

set up and manned a coordinated Command Post, 

24 hours a day, keeping Commanders in touch 

with both air and ground search elements; they 

organized sleeping arrangements and helped the Red 

Cross set up its feeding station; they supplied maintenance of the wide assortment of vehicles committed to the operation; and they operated a fleet 

of 24 Guard vehicles, mostly trucks and jeeps, to 

aid the searchers. 

On Thursday, the fourth day after the crash, 

the Guardsmen were relieved by a battalion of Army 

Engineers from Fort Belvoir, and 125 Marines from 

Quantico with all their vehicles. Guardsmen also 

opened the armory at Frostburg and prepared it 

as an auxiliary housing and feeding station for the 

additional hundreds of soldiers due in from Fort 

Meade, and for storage of plane fragments recovered 

from the crash scene. 

The pilot and co-pilot were rescued, alive, 

early in the search, and the bodies of three others 

were found. The two nuclear weapons carried by 

the plane were located, recovered, and flown out. 

Letters acknowledging the Guardsmen's service 

were received from General Curtis E. LeMay, USAF 

Chief of Staff; General Thomas S. Power, Commander, Strategic Air Command (SAC); Brig Gen. 

Richard C. Neeley, Commander of SAC's 6th Air 

Division; Brig Gen. Raymond J. Harvey, Commander, Army Engineer Center; as well as from 

officials of the Maryland State Police and Civil Air 

Patrol. 

Flood 

Floods hit Montana, early in June 1964, moving from the northwest section of the State to the 

Great Falls area, which swept away earthen dams, 

isolated ranch homes, entire Indian villages, and livestock. More than 30 people died and property 

damage mounted into the millions. About 600 

Army Guardsmen in Kalispell, Havre, Whitefish, 

and Great Falls, along with several hundred Air 

Guardsmen were called to duty to assist in the emergency. Troop E, 2d Reconnaissance Squadron, 

163d Armored Cavalry, made a 163-mile, nightlong trip in jeeps and trucks to Browning, in the 

middle of the Blackfoot Indian Reservation. For 

three days, the Troop hauled emergency supplies, 

made hasty repairs to roads and bridges, distributed 

food and medical supplies, helped innoculate the 

residents, and guarded against looting. 

Troop E was en rbute home when orders were 

received by radio to go to the rescue of the town 

of Shelby, because a small dam had burst upstream 

and a larger dam might also go out. The weary 

Guardsmen turned around and went back to set 

up roadblocks, patrol flooded portions of the town, 

and establish a watch on the overflowing dam until 

they were released the next morning. 

Army National Guard aviators picked up flood 

victims from rooftops, transported search and rescue 

parties to isolated areas, and brought in food and 

medicine to remote sections. In the first four days, 

12 hours flying time per day was logged by each 

of the 18 aircraft used (three were borrowed from 

Idaho). 

Montana Guardsmen take part in sand bagg'ma operations 

during recent floods 

In Great Falls, 375 Air Guardsmen from Montana's 120th Fighter Group assisted in sandbagging, 

evacuating threatened areas, and patrolling, and 

provided mobile and fixed communications, fire protection and ground transportation. The Group's 

C-47 transport plane made 33 flights delivering 

emergency supplies and personnel. 

n 
For three and a half days, the Group's base 

crash fire section assumed responsibility for fire 

protection in seven districts which the city's regular 

fire department was unable to reach. A boat 

rescue command post was established at the unit's 

fire station using eight boats and working in coordination with the Air Force spotters. Communications with the planes were maintained through 

the Air Guard radio-equipped fire trucks. 

Drought 

In Vermont during the winter of 1963-1964, 

the Army National Guard came to the aid of the 

drought stricken area in Operation Water Wagon. 

Springs and ponds were dry, livestock was in critical 

danger. When the Governor asked the State Adjutant General what the Guard could do to help, 

he replied: "The Guardsmen can do the job if 

anyone can." When the job was completed, the 

Guardsmen had hauled or piped 25,000,000 gallons of water to 18,000 cows on some 200 farms. 

For two months, seven days a week, 64 men 

working 16-hour days labored to bring water to 

dry ponds. Five pumping stations on rivers and 

nearby Lake Champlain were set up. A fleet of 

25 trucks carrying water fanned-out across two 

drought-stricken counties. 

When the operation was over, the vehicles had 

been driven a distance equal to six trips around 

the world; the cows hadn't missed a drink. 

Traffic Safety 

At a traffic safety conference in Salt Lake 

City, Utah's Governor Clyde asked for a new 

campaign to halt the highway slaughter on Utah 

roads in 1963 that had brought death to 261 persons. The State Adjutant General said: "I don't 

know how the National Guard can stop accidents, 

but we can stop some of the deaths and serious 

injuries that result when accidents occur." 

Thus in Operation Seat Belt, National Guard 

automotive mechanics, in a two-day effort, placed 

3,661 sets of safety belts in Utah automobiles. 

February 22, 1964, Muster Day, was set as the day 

when Guard mechanics would install the belts. 

Through Utah news media, the public was told 

"to bring your own belts and the Guard will install them free of charge." 

While 6,000 other Utah Guardsmen went through 

a Civil Defense exercise to mark Muster Day, the 

mechanics stayed behind at 25 armories to take 

care of the seat belt installations. By the end of 

the day hundreds of belts had been installed, and 

hundreds of other cars were still in line waiting; 

the National Guard finished the job on 7 March. 

Mercy Missions 

When some residents in Tennessee were stricken 

by the rare and usually fatal bacteria which causes 

botulism, many were saved by Type E serum flown 

in by the Tennessee Air National Guard. At the 

urgent request of State health authorities, four 

pilots from the 134th Fighter Interceptor Squadron 

flew to Washington, D.C., picked up the lifesaving serum, and delivered it to authorities in 

Nashville and Knoxville. Nine persons died before 

smoked whitefish was identified as the cause. 

In Delaware, the 116th Surgical Hospital (Mobile 

Army) averted the need for calling a hospital disaster alert. Members of the unit train at the Delaware Hospital in Wilmington serving in various hospital departments according to their unit assignments. A bus loaded with migrant farm workers 

struck a pole and nine of the 27 victims were 

brought to the hospital emergency room while members of the unit were at the hospital in a training 

assembly. Guardsmen helped to treat the injured 

and handle routine operations in the hospital. The 

Hospital Director stated: "The presence of the 

Guardsmen throughout the hospital and their prompt 

action gave us enormous flexibility. Further, it 

allowed the care of all in-patients to go on without interruption." 

Storm 

A tornado, on 8 May 1964, hit in the area 

of New Baltimore, Michigan, flattening a path 

two miles long and a half-mile wide leaving at 

least nine persons dead and about 1,000 homeless. 

At Pontiac, Company A of the 2d Battalion, 

125th Infantry, was ordered to duty and its members 

set up a command post at the Pontiac Armory. 

By early morning, 106 members of Company A 

and 49 members from Company C were on duty 

and the remainder of the Battalion was under orders to report by noon. By noon, 376 Guardsmen 

were assisting in search, rescue, patrols, and recovery 

tasks. A majority of the Guardsmen remained on 

duty for four days.

MILITARY SUPPORT 

OF CIVIL DEFENSE 

The proposal to utilize the State Adjutants 

General and the State Military Headquarters in the 

planning and coordination of military support of 

civil defense was initiated by the Under Secretary 

of the Army, in April 1963. Also, in April 1963 

the Adjutants General Association of the United 

States at its conference in Puerto Rico adopted a 

resolution supporting this new mission concept. 

In October 1963, the Secretary of the Army presented a study to the Secretary of Defense entitled 

"Military Support of Civil Defense." This study 

recommended the establishment of a planning group 

to make final recommendations on the implementation of the military support of civil defense concept. 

The Secretary of Defense approved this study in 

November 1963. 

The Secretary'of the Army, in December 1963, 

requested the Chief of Staff of the Army to direct 

the Commanding General, United States Continental 

Army Command, to establish a planning group to 

make final recommendations on the military support 

of civil defense concept. 

The planning group was established and members appointed in December 1963. The members 

of the planning group represented U.S. Continental 

Army Command (USCONARC), Office of Civil 

Defense (OCD), The Adjutants General Association of the United States, and the National Guard 

Bureau. During the period January-February 1964, 

plenary sessions of the Planning Group were held 

at HQ, USCONARC and on 4 March 1964, the 

final report was approved and submitted to the 

Department of the Army. 

On 8 June 1964, the Secretary of the Army, 

approved the USCONARC Planning Group recommendations, as changed, for the assignment of the 

new mission of Military Support of Civil Defense 

to the 48 CONUS State Adjutants General and 

their State National Guard Headquarters. 

The new mission will require implementation by 

the State Adjutants General and State National Guard 

Headquarters as the State Military Headquarters 

for Military Support of Civil Defense. The State 

Headquarters will coordinate, plan and control operations for the military support of civil authorities 

responsible for civil defense. 

In addition to planning for military support 

of civil defense, the State Headquarters will include 

in their plans provisions for military assistance anticipated in natural disasters operations. 

The Secretary of the Army by letter, 13 June 

1964, to the Governors of the 48 CONUS States 

informed them of the results of the planning group's 

study and briefly explained the plan. The purpose 

of this letter was to secure an agreement for the 

implementation of the plan in the States. 

The Chief, National Guard Bureau, by letter 

of 15 June 1964, forwarded copies of the USCONARC Report to State Adjutants General for interim 

guidance for initiation of organizational and planning purposes. 
The Army National Guard today faces a great challenge. Our National strategy requires a 

ready-now National Guard to round out and reinforce the active forces. The Guard can and 

will meet the challenges of our times as it has met all such tests in the past. Cyrus R. Vance, 

Deputy Secretary of Defense, stated: 

"I consider the National Guard to be among the foremost military assets which America 

possesses—indispensable in the past, and indispensable in the future." 

No longer simply a mobilization base, units of the Army National Guard make up a large 

part of the military force which the President will call on for immediate response to a threat. 

At the end of fiscal year 1964, ARNG units formed almost one-third of our Nation's 22-Division Force planned for early employment when events make this necessary. This-"ready force" 

consisted of 16 active Army divisions and 6 high priority Army National Guard divisions. Two 

special mission ARNG divisions were programmed for support of war plans in specified critical 

areas. 

At the end of FY 1964, ARNG units with a strength of 381,546 stood ready to assume their 

Federal mission. Of this strength 232,000 Guardsmen or sixty-one percent were in Immediate 

Reserve units and 149,500 or 39 percent were in the Reinforcing Reserve units. 

The Army National Guard troop structure has been changed annually to be responsive to 

the requirements of the Army war plans —and to conform to the most recent Army unit organizational concepts. During FY 1964, there was a reorganization of non-divisional units to ROAD 

(Reorganization Objective Army Divisions). This reorganization affecting 38 States was completed in seven months. It provided separate brigades with variable numbers of maneuver 

battalions. Also, it provided separate combat maneuver battalions available for assignment, as 

needed, to reinforce active or ARNG divisions and brigades, to replace active Army school 

troops, or to serve as unit replacements. Infantry and armored divisions were further reorganized 

under the Final E Series ROAD TOE's during the period of February —June 1964. 

The Army National Guard role in the complete cycle of modernization of Army Air Defenses—from guns to Nike Ajax missiles and finally Nike Hercules missiles—has been a historic 

one and puts to maximum use the One Army concept of units in action. It restores to Army 
National Guard units their "Minuteman" role as an integral part of the United States defenses. 

The phase out and reorganization of the last Nike Ajax units in the Norfolk, Virginia, area on 

18 May 1964, marked the end of the reorganization phase of the conversion to Nike Hercules 

program. 

The new Reserve Enlistment Program (REP) resulted in record gains of non-prior service 

personnel and produced a net strength increase of 20,500. Over 78,000 of these non-prior service recruits entered a period of initial active duty training—the largest input since the beginning 

of this program. 

Army National Guard units in many cases have attained a level of proficiency where they 

can benefit from training of a more sophisticated nature. Large scale participation in joint 

military training exercises is possible now that the Guard has acquired both the means and skill 

to carry on such activities. In May 1964, ARNG units participated in exercise DESERT STRIKE, 

the largest Armor maneuver since World War II. The largest Immediate Reserve organization 

participating was the 258th Infantry Brigade, Arizona Army National Guard. The largest Reinforcing Reserve organization was the 2nd Brigade, 40th Armored Division, California Army 

National Guard. This was the first time since World War II that Reserve Component Forces 

of brigade strength participated in joint exercises. ARNG units also participated in the only 

large scale CONUS logistical exercise, LOGEX-64. 

In GUARDLIFT I, over 10,000 ARNG personnel in detachment to brigade size units were 

airlifted to field training sites during the summer of 1964 by using Air National Guard training 

flights. 

By the end of FY 1964, all units of the nine States which were selected for testing the 

feasibility of conducting all inactive duty training in consecutive multiple assemblies on weekends were training under this system. This program greatly increased training time in which to 

conduct small unit tactical problems. 

Today the Army National Guard is more closely attuned to the Nation's needs, more professional in outlook, and more sophisticated in its awareness of the citizen-soldier's life. Change 

is still the watchword for the Guard's future.

COMPTROLLER n 

The Congress appropriated S435.50O.0OO for 

the support of the Army National Guard during 

FY 1964. These funds were included in three 

appropriations, covering military personnel, operating 

costs (including technician pay), and the construction of armory and nonarmory facilities.

The ARNG Personnel budget submitted to the 

Congress requested $240,300,000 to support an estimated beginning strength of 375,500 and an end 

strength of 384,400 with an input of 74,900 into 

the Reserse Enlisted Program (REP) training. To 

the initial request, the Congress added $2.500.000 

for the school program; and in a supplemental appropriation added $6,200,000 to finance the net cost 

of the military pay increase authorized by PL 88-132. 

The S180.8OO.OOO appropriated for ARNG Operation and Maintenance includes $4,200,000 added 

by the Congress for the repair parts program 

($1,000,000) and the technician program 

(S3.200,000).

Funding 

For ARNG Personnel, all of the funds appropriated by the Congress. $249,000,000, plus $1,100,000 

in funded reimbursements were allocated by the 

Comptroller of the Army to the National Guard 

Bureau and other agencies. These funds were adequate to finance all requirements including the cost of 

the military pay raise legislation enacted in October 

1963. The pay raise created a requirement of 

$17,900,000 of which $11,700,000 was financed within 

initially appropriated funds, including the $2.5 million 

for the school program, and $6,200,000 financed by a 

supplemental appropriation. The funding program 

supported a strength beginning at 360.714 and ending 

with 392,000, at an average strength of 374.300, and 

an REP input of 75,000. At year-end the program 

accomplishment was a strength of 381,546 and an 

average strength of 372,823 with an REP input of 

78,482. A maximum strength of 386,904 was 

attained as of 31 March 1964. 

Funding for the ARNG Operation and Maintenance appropriation during the year totaled 

$180,800,000 including S10.000 transferred to the 

General Sen ices Administration to finance certain 

Army National leases. Of the $180.800.000 appropriated, $1,700,000 was initially held in reserve by the 

office. Secretary of Defense. This reserve was later 

released for use primarily in the repair parts program, and technician and transportation support.

Rewsions of NGR 58 and NGB Pamphlet 58-1 

which prescribes the policy and procedure pertaining 

to Federal pay and allowances of Army National 

Guard members under the military pay voucher 

system were completed and published on 15 Febuary 

1964. In addition to clarifying and improving the 

contents of prior directives, these revisions include 

all changes regarding pay and allowances that ha\e 
occurred since date of previous publication. The 

revised pamphlet also contains a new section which 

sets forth the electrical accounting machine procedures for the processing and payment of Army National Guard armory training pay. 

The procedures prescribed in NGR 58 require that 

incapacitation payrolls, covering continuation of pay 

and allowances to Army National Guard members 

for injury or disease incurred in line of duty, be submitted to the National Guard Bureau for examination 

and administrative approval, when the required 

medical certificate is not signed by a uniformed 

services medical officer. A total of 136 such payrolls 

were reviewed and processed during fiscal year 1964. 

Audit and Reports of Survey 

The U.S. Army Audit Agency completed and 

submitted 18 audit reports pertaining to Army 

National Guard activities in the various States during 

fiscal year 1964. These audit reports included the 

status and conditions of Federal fund and property 

accounts maintained by 35 percent of the United 

States Property and Fiscal Officers (USPFO's) in 

the States. The findings and recommendations were 

reported in detail to State authorities, the National 

Guard Bureau, and the Department of the Army. 

These audit reports and the replies of corrective 

action taken by the States were reviewed and analyzed 

in the National Guard Bureau. They were also used 

as a basis, for establishing or improving various 

management and internal control procedures. The 

value of these audits was indicated by the fact 

that five of the States audited during fiscal year 

1964 had no major findings. Of particular significance during the past year was the expansion 

of the audit scope to include a detailed review of 

mobilization readiness and other activities at unit 

level. This increased emphasis on unit level activities 

will assist the State Adjutant General and major 

unit commanders in determining where the special 

attention should be directed for command inspections, 

development of writing procedural guidance and 

administrative reviews by full time technicians. 

Reports Control 

During FY 1964, the number of controlled, 

recurring reports required by the National Guard 

Bureau and submitted by the several States increased 

by one to a total of 24. In addition to these 

reports submitted by the States, the National Guard 

Bureau requires three reports from active Army 

commands. 

During the past year by direction of the Chief 

of Staff, the National Guard Bureau made a special 

effort to reduce reporting workload and to report 

quarterly to the Vice Chief of Staff on progress 

made. Due to the small number of reports requested 

by the NGB, it was possible to maintain a continuous 

review of the necessity of each. All of the current 

reports provided data, not elsewhere available, but 

essential to National Guard Bureau management. 

At the close of FY 1964, a new reports control register was being prepared for the Army National Guard. It is hoped that during the preparation of this new register a reduction or consolidation 

can be made in the reporting workload of the 

Army National Guard. 

Review and Analysis 

Continuing review and analysis of the Army 

National Guard program in FY 1964 indicated that 

in most areas actual performance adhered closely to 

programmed objectives. 

Quarterly reports to the Vice Chief of Staff on 

the execution of the Army National Guard Program 

served to highlight significant deficiences, excesses 

and problem areas requiring action by higher 

authority. 

An additional requirement to inform the Chief, 

Office of Reserve Components on all phases of the 

Army National Guard program on a monthly basis 

was established late in FY 1963 and was fully 

implemented and refined in FY 1964. 

In February 1964, in an effort to reduce unnecessary workload, all recipients of the quarterly 

Army National Guard Progress report were queried 

as to their requirements for this report. Based on 

answers received, it was decided to continue the report semi-annually rather than quarterly. 

Technicians 

Army National Guard technicians are, with a 

limited number excepted, federally recognized members of units and are employed by the States. They 

assist the unit commanders in the day-to-day administrative and training responsibilities and assist the 

United States Property and Fiscal Officer with his 

duties. They provide the first and second echelon 

23 
maintenanc

e in organization maintenance shops and 

higher echelon maintenance in the State. Also, they 

provide personnel necessary to keep the NIKE 

missile sites operational 24-hours a day in the air 

defense of the United States. 

At the beginning of FY 64, 17,703 spaces were 

authorized for employment of technicians in Or-

ganization, USPFO and Support Maintenance ac-

tivities (Budget Program 7500) and 4,976 spaces 

in the Air Defense Program. In March 1964, 

as a result of the decrease in the Reserve Component 

Technician Program, the ARNG lost 423 technician 

spaces from those authorized at the beginning of the 

fiscal year. At the end of the fiscal year, 17,271 

technicians were employed in Budget Program 7500, 

156 were supported on a reimbursement basis as a 

condition of cross-service agreements, and 4,795 

employed in air defense, bringing the total technicians 

employed to 22,222. 

During the fiscal year, four States (Connecticut, 

Indiana, Nebraska, Oklahoma) and the Common-

wealth of Puerto Rico, joined the State Retire-

ment Program bringing the total to 18 States par-

ticipating. There were 8,147 ARNG technicians 

covered by State Retirement Systems. 

In January 1964, the salaries of 10,387 ARNG 

technicians paid under Classification Act Schedules 

were adjusted under Classification Act Schedule II, 

enacted into law by PL 87-793 dated 11 October 

1962. The annual cost of the salary adjustments 

was approximately $2,389,000. 

Pay increases from new Wage Board schedules 

developed during the year amounted to $1,027,363 

per year. 

Average costs per technician produced during 

the year, including salaries and benefits, amounted 

to $6,595 in Budget Program 7500 and $6,626 in 

Air Defense. 

Total obligations for technicians in BP 7500 

were $112,963,728. Direct obligations amounted 

to $112,116,291, and the reimbursable cost of tech-

nicians employed under cross-service agreements was 

$847,427. The direct obligations for the Air De-

fense technicians, BP 7621, were $28,820,988.

Military Strength 

The federally recognized strength of the active 

Army National Guard on 30 June 1964 was 381,546. 

Compared with the FY 63 year-end strength of 

361,080 (including 366 Alabama Army National 

Guardsmen on active Federal duty) there was an 

increase in strength of 20,466. The year-end strength 

of 381,546 was 18,454 short of the 400,000 authorized for the Army National Guard.

A table showing year-end an d average strengths from 1948-1964 

is attached as Appendix I. 

The ARNG strength dropped to 358,542, including Alabama National Guardsmen on Federal 

active duty, during July 1963, then increased steadily 

and reached its peak of 386,904 at the end of March 

1964. This increase in strength was due principally 

to heavy procurement by ARNG units of nonprror service enlistees requiring initial active duty 

for training (ACDUTRA); these accounted for 

107,511 of the total 132,228 enlisted gains. 

Some factors contributing to the drop in strength 

during the months of May and June 1964 included: 

(a) The recruiting emphasis gained during the year 

could not be maintained due to the need for units 

to devote full time to necessary preparations for annual field training. (b) The accelerated procurement of non-prior service personnel resulted in 

large backlogs of recruits awaiting exceptionally 

long periods of time in units for active duty training spaces, which tended to curtail recruiting activities, (c) Losses were heavier than normal due, 

in part, to the reduction of overstrength in units 

resulting from reorganization. 

In the inactive Army National Guard were 

7,521 Guardsmen who were attached to units for 

administration and accounting purposes and who 

would be available for duty as reinforcements upon 

mobilization.

The warrant officer strength increase was attributed to two factors: the increase in authorization for warrant officer pilots; and the appointment as warrant officers of some former officer

Personnel Actions (Officers) 

Listed below is a comparison of the officer

brought about by the 1963 reorganization. Transfers 

to the inactive Army National Guard are included 

in reassignments.

On 1 January 1964, the method of announcing 

Army National Guard Federal recognition actions 

by NGB Special Orders was instituted and the use 

of NGB Form 03a, 03c, and 03e for that purpose 

was discontinued. Administrative procedures at all 

echelons have been facilitated by this change. 

Reserve Officer Personnel Act 

The mandatory promotion provisions of Public 

Law 86-559, an amendment to the Reserve Officer 

Personnel Act (ROPA) of 1954, were implemented 

by Army Regulations 135-155, 13 November 1963, 

and NGR 20-3. During FY 1964, initial considerations for promotion under ROPA resulted in 

the following selection rate: first lieutenants, 60 

percent; captains, 57 percent; and majors, 72 percent. The average for all grades was 60 percent. 

Officers considered mandatorily for the second 

time under ROPA provisions were selected at the 

following rate: first lieutenants, 60 percent; captains, 52 percent; majors, 61 percent. The overall average for all grades was 58 percent. 

This fiscal year was the first in which single 

centralized ROPA boards were conducted in the 

Department of the Army for the selection of captains 

and majors for promotion. The selection of first 

lieutenants for promotion is still a function of the 

ROPA boards in the several States. The selection 

rates were slightly higher this year for captains considered for the first time and for majors in both 

groups. The rates were considered to be normal for 

captains considered for the second time and for first 

lieutenants in both groups. This suggests that the 

28 
centralization of the selection boards has not brought 

about any significant change in selection rates. 

During FY 1964, the Federal recognition of 33 

Army National Guard officers was terminated due 

to the attritive provisions of the Reserve Officer 

Personnel Act. 

Procurement (Enlisted Personnel) 

During FY 1964, there was a total procurement 

of 132,228 enlisted personnel which was offset by heavy 

losses of 111,747 personnel.

The "Flexible Enlistment Program," allowing a 

Guardsman to extend his enlistment for as little as 

one year but sufficient to cover his remaining military 

obligation, was continued. Also continued was the 

"Try One" program in which men with previous 

military service could enlist for a one-year trial 

period. 

The year-end strength increase of 20,466 over 

that of FY 1963 was due principally to the procurement of 107,511 non-prior service enlistees requiring initial active duty for training. This was 

the largest number of personnel of this category 

procured in the past seven years, with the 69,130 

procured in 1960 being the next highest. Contributing to this procurement of recruits was the 

1963 Reserve Enlistment Program for non-prior 

service personnel. 

Reserve Enlistment Program 

The 1963 Reserve Enlistment Program (REP63) for non-prior service personnel, passed on 3 

September 1963, replaced the program provided in 

the Reserve Forces Act of 1955 (RFA-55). This 

new program changed the active duty for training 

time from six months to that which would qualify 

an individual in his designated MOS with a minimum training period of four months. In anticipation of the passing of the bill, the program 

was announced to the States on 1 August 1963, 

and implementation began on 11 August 1963.

During FY 64, 78,482 Army National Guardsmen entered the active duty training program 

(ACDUTRA). Since the beginning of this training program in FY 1956, 486,348 Army National 

Guardsmen have enlisted or volunteered to take 

ACDUTRA, 423,909 have actually entered training, and 355,075 have completed training and returned to their units. On 30 June 1964, there 

were 45,868 Army National Guard enlisted men 

participating in the ACDUTRA training program 

in Army Training Centers, Service Schools and 

unit training facilities in the various States.

Personnel Actions (Enlisted) 

Review of enlistment records in the National 

Guard Bureau was discontinued effective 1 April 

1964. Due to the careful selection and screening 

of enlistment applications by recruiters, unit commanders, and State authorities, very few rejections 

of enlistments were made at the National Guard 

Bureau. This indicated that Bureau review was no 

longer warranted. 

During May and June 1964, conferences were 

conducted in each Army Area for the purpose of 

briefing State personnel officers on implementation 

of the Enlisted Evaluation System (EES). The 

EES scheduled for implementation by the Army 

National Guard is identical with minor exceptions 

to that prescribed for the active Army. The purpose of this system is to measure accurately the 

individual qualification of enlisted personnel (grades 

E-4 and above) in their specified duty MOS. Results of this system will serve to aid the individual 

by reflecting weak areas, assist unit commanders 

in determining corrective training needs, and add to 

the general over-all effectiveness of the entire Army 

National Guard. 

Army National Guard Register 

During FY 1964, 4,849 statements of service 

(NGB Forms 03D) were issued on newly federally 

recognized officers and warrant officers, for inclusion in the Army National Guard Register. Also, 

6,815 promotions were entered in the Register. 

Other actions pertaining to the Register included 

requests for changes, completed courses of instruction at Army Service Schools, change in branch of 

service, change of status in the active and inactive 

Army National Guard, and termination of Federal 

recognition. Verification of service performed in 

the Army National Guard, and statement of service for retired pay purposes were supplied individuals upon request. 

In June 1964, the 1964 edition of the Official 

Army National Guard Register was distributed to 

the States and other interested activities. This 

edition contains the names and statements of service of approximately 33,000 officers and warrant 

officers of the active and inactive Army National 

Guard. 

MEDICAL ACTIVITIES

among his other duties is responsible for the formulation and promulgation of over-all medical policy 

and regulations embracing the scope and standards 

of medical examinations of applicants for and members of the Army National Guard, line of duty 

investigation findings, and the medical care of members of the Army National Guard. In line with 

this responsibility and the endeavor to maintain 

medically qualified combat readiness of ARNG

400.000 STRENGTH 4.000 UNITS 

On 30 June 1964, there were 4,003 company 

or detachment size units federally recognized in 

the Army National Guard troop basis. Due to 

the reorganization of non-divisional units in 38 

States during the year, there was a decrease of 

2 units from the FY 63 total of 4,005 federally 

recognized units and 20 units from the total of 

4,023 units authorized in the Army National Guard 

troop basis. 

The ARNG troop basis consists of the following units: 

17 Infantry Divisions 

6 Armored Divisions 

5 Command Headquarters, Divisional 

4 Infantry Brigades (Sep) 

1 Infantry Brigade (M)(Sep) 

2 Armored Brigades (Sep) 

2 Separate Scout Battalions

66 Support Battalions 
3 Special Forces Groups, Headquarters, 

13 Special Forces Companies, and 3 

Special Forces Detachments 

174 Headquarters Units 

406 Separate Companies and Detachments 

Of the above units, 2,251 were assigned to the 

Immediate Reserve with 18 units earmarked for 

Support to Other Services and 69 were in the Mobilization Base. The Reinforcing Reserve consists 

of 1,752 units. Of the ARNG actual strength, 61 

percent was assigned to the Immediate Reserve and 

39 percent was assigned to the Reinforcing Reserve. 

Reorganization 

Reorganization of the Army National Guard 

continued through FY 64 to provide a ready reserve force available for mobilization to support 

the active Army. The reorganizations carried out 

throughout the year were accomplished in a professional, skilled manner and intensified the mobilization readiness of the Army National Guard. 

ARNG infantry and armored divisions were further 

reorganized under ROAD from draft tables of 

organization and equipment to the final E Series 

TOE's. By 1 June 1964, the conversion of all 

non-divisional combat units under ROAD had been 

completed. This reorganization provided all separate brigades with a variable number of combat 

battalions. It also provided separate combat battalions available for assignment as needed to reinforce active Army or ARNG divisions and brigades, to replace active Army school troops, or to 

serve as unit replacements. 

The conversion of the last NIKE AJAX battery 

marked the end of the reorganization phase of the 

conversion from NIKE AJAX to the NIKE 

HERCULES program begun in May 1962. 

Training Criteria 

The Army National Guard conducts training in 

accordance with criteria established by Headquarters, 

United States Continental Army Command 

(USCONARC) and United States Army Air Defense Command (ARADCOM). The USCONARC 

training criteria are set forth in Annex AA to its 

Training Directive, dated 23 March 1964, which 

established the following objectives for ARNG individual and unit training. 

Individual /raining objectives are: 

• To attain and maintain proficiency of all 

personnel in the fundamentals of combat operations; 

• To prepare, by progressive selection and 

training, officers qualified to assume command and 

staff responsibilities at all echelons and similarly 

to prepare warrant officers and non-commissioned 

officers for positions of leadership and responsibility; 

• To develop and qualify all personnel in 

their MOS and grade assignment; 

• To develop efficient instructors; 

• To maintain standards of mental and physical fitness necessary for active duty, including indoctrination of all individuals in the Code of Conduct. 

ARMY NATIONAL GUARD 

INDIVIDUAL TRAINING PROGRESS 

1956 1964 

The chart above shows Army National Guard 

individual training progress from FY 1956 through 

FY 1964. Nineteen percent of ARNG Guardsmen 

have had prior service in active forces. Eightynine percent of the Guardsmen were considered 

basically trained. The effects of the Reserve Enlistment Program was shown by the steady growth 

in Guardsmen who have trained with the active 

Army of from 24 percent on 30 June 1956 to 76 

percent on 30 June 1964. "Less than 2 years Na-

}2 
tional Guard Training" represents the percentage 

of non-prior service personnel awaiting entry into 

REP training. This increased from 5 percent at 

the end of FY 63 to 11 percent at the end of FY 

64. The increase was caused by the heavy procurement during the year of non-prior service personnel under REP and resulted in the larger than 

normal number of personnel waiting to enter training the following year. 

Unit Training Objectives 

The objective of the unit training program 

was to improve the readiness of all units to mobilize 

and initiate post mobilization training programs 

promptly to meet deployment schedules. Maximum 

progression to higher levels of training beyond those 

stated below as objectives was encouraged consistent with strength, training equipment, facilities, 

and attained proficiency. The training goals were 

as follows: 

Immediate Reserve. Units should strive to 

achieve an Army training program (ATP) level of 

training which will permit completion of the full 

ATP in the shortest time possible after mobilization, and a maximum capability for self-sufficiency. 

The objectives to be achieved by units assigned to 

the Immediate Reserve were: 

• Infantry and Armor: To complete company level training to include successful completion 

of the company Army Training Test. 

• Artillery: To train at battalion level after 

successful completion of the battery Army Training 

Test. 

• Other units: To achieve and train at a 

unit level of training consistent with that of the 

combat elements. 

Reinforcing Reserve. Minimum goals for these 

units were a well trained base capable of (a) receiving filler personnel and equipment, (b) initiating 

post mobilization ATP unit training on an accelerated basis, and (c) a maximum capability for selfsufficiency. 

• Infantry and Armor: To complete platoon 

level training to include successful completion of the 

platoon Army training test. 

• Artillery: To complete battery level training. 

• Other Units: To train at a unit level of 

training compatible with that of the combat units. 

Units for whom there is no ATP were guided 

by special training directives in attaining the overall objectives. 

Combat Training 

•P 

With the implementation of mandatory six month 

active duty for training for all non-prior service enlistees in October 1958, the ARNG was released 

from conducting individual training and has since 

conducted only unit training. Under the new Reserve Enlistment Program (REP) for non-prior service personnel, passed on 3 September 1963, theactive 

duty for training time was changed from six months 

to that which would qualify an individual in his 

designated MOS, with a minimum training period 

of four months. Individuals returning from basic 

training are integrated into the unit training program. 

The ARNG was well into Basic Unit Training 

with the exception of certain units which, due to 

reorganization and branch changes, were required 

to revert to Advanced Individual Training in the 

fourth quarter of FY 64. Many of the Artillery 

units were in the Advanced Unit Training phase. 
Most Armored units were in Basic Unit Training. 

At the end of FY 64, Army National Guard Infantry units had satisfactorily completed an average 

of four weeks of basic unit training or 18 weeks 

of the total 32-week training program required to 

attain readiness for overseas deployment. The 

status of ARNG Infantry units training is depicted 

on the "Arrow" graph below.

Armory Training 

During FY 1964, armory training was conducted with ARNG units participating in at least 

48 paid inactive duty training assemblies (armory 

drills). A few exceptions were made for units 

which were affected by reorganization, but these 

units performed their proportionate share of the 

48 assemblies in accordance with NGR 45. 

The number of officers, warrant officers and 

enlisted men participating in armory training 

amounted to an average of 92.1 percent of assigned 

strength (excluding constructive attendance), an overall percentage increase of 0.1 percent from the 

previous fiscal year. This increase can be attributed 

to the leveling off of the turbulence caused by the 

major reorganization and realignment of the Army 

National Guard last year. 

Percentages of attendance at armory training 

during the past two years, excluding constructive 

attendance, are shown below: 

Percent Percent

Officers and warrant officers 97.0 97.4 

Enlisted men 91.5 91.5 

On 1 October 1963, the Army National Guard 

initiated a test program for multiple training assemblies on weekends. 

• 

By the end of FY 64, all units of the 9 States 

testing the feasibility of conducting all inactive duty 

training in multiple assemblies were training under 

this system. This program provides for increased 

training time to conduct small unit tactical problems. The states selected to test the consecutive 

multiple drills were: Arkansas, California, Colorado, 

Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, New Jersey, South 

Carolina, and Tennessee. 

Test objectives were to determine the impact 

of multiple training assemblies on weekends on 

training, attendance, strength, recruiting, morale, 

costs and logistical implications. An analysis of 

the reports from the test States indicates that: 

• Training advantages far outweigh the disadvantages. 

• There was a distinct improvement in morale 

in direct ratio to the number of consecutive multiple 

assemblies conducted. 

34 
• Actual impact on strength proved negligible. 

• In the majority of test States, attendance 

at multiple assemblies at the end of the test period 

was higher than attendance for any type assembly 

at the beginning of the test period. 

• Additional funds will be required to conduct multiple drills on successive days. However, 

due to the significant increase in training accomplished, the cost per training hour will be appreciably less than the current cost. 

• Except for special items of winter equipment, few if any additional items will be required 

solely because of multiple assemblies on successive 

days. Until existing shortages of items needed 

for training are filled, units will be unable to take 

maximum advantage of additional training hours. 

Due to greater use of equipment wear out will be 

accelerated and earlier replacement should be forecast. 

• The demand for repair parts will become 

even more critical. A determination should be made 

of the minimum funds required to place all equipment in operational condition, to maintain it in 

operating condition, and to reestablish authorized 

spare part stock levels depleted in recent years. 

• The new program will increase the mobilization readiness of all units. Not only will more 

hours be devoted to training, but the hours will 

be more effectively utilized. Advancement to higher 

levels of training will be accelerated. Units will be 

able to conduct more realistic training in the field, 

utilizing weapons and equipment that can not be 

operated in armories. 

• Every effort should be made to obtain at an 

early date the funds necessary to support 100 percent participation in the program by all States. 

Annual Field Training 

During 1964, annual field training of 15 days 

was conducted for all units with approximately 

289,000 ARNG Guardsmen attending, representing 

about 98 percent of ARNG paid drill strength. 

The live-fire Squad/Platoon Rifle Attack 

Courses established last year were continued at this 

year's annual field training. These courses which 

gave the troops a basic concept of live fire battle 

drill and the teamwork required under combat 

conditions were run with outstanding enthusiasm. 

A continuing program of new construction and 

improvement of present attack courses was carried 

out during FY 1964. 

During annual field training, active Army evaluation boards conducted a detailed inspection of each 

federally recognized Army National Guard unit. 

Shown below is the CONARC field training 

evaluation system rating scale. It is emphasized 

that this evaluation system is concerned only with 

the performance of training of a unit and does not 

indicate the unit mobilization capability.

Three important firsts in ARNG field training 

improved the readiness of units. For the first 

time, the Army National Guard participated in a 

large scale Army logistical exercise when 7 units 

were in Exercise LOGEX at Fort Lee, Virginia. 

This exercise stressed the importance of maintaining continuous theatre of operations logistical and 

administrative support under conventional, nuclear, 

or CBR conditions. 

For the first time, in implementation of GUARDLIFT I, over 10,000 ARNG personnel in detachment to brigade size units were airlifted to field 

training sites during the summer of 1964 by using 

Air National Guard training flights. This program 
Guardsmen being airlifted to field training sites 

provided personnel with air mobility experience, new 

situations and specialized training sites. There was 

an interchange of units between Hawaii and California and Indiana and Puerto Rico, and one brigade from Minnesota was airlifted to Alaska. There 

were unit exchanges between Army Areas. 

40th Armored Division, California ARNG, in DESERT 

STRIKE 

For the first time, the Army National Guard 

participated significantly in an active Army field 

exercise. In DESERT STRIKE during May in the 

California and Arizona desert area, 8,000 Guardsmen, in combat and combat support units up to 

brigade size, trained along with active Army units 

in the largest Armor field exercise since World 

War II. Outstanding results were reported and 

participation in future exercises is being planned.

School Program 

The Army National Guard School Program 

is designed to provide military education and appropriate MOS training for officers and enlisted 

men. Graduates of these schools are used to 

train other members of each Army National Guard 

unit. The school program used Army Service 

Schools, Army Area Schools, and Officer Candidate Schools. 

For FY 1964, the overall school program was 

restricted to $10.0 million. The military pay raise, 

effective 1 October 1963, and the authority for 

payment of family separation allowance increased 

the cost per student which further limited the number of students attending schools. Due to this 

funding limitation, attendance was limited to Basic 

Officer Courses, Career Courses, Command and 

J 6 
General Staff Officer Courses, Aviator Training, 

and hard skill officer and enlisted MOS training. 

All short type courses were eliminated from the 

school program. 

Attendance at Army Service Schools was limited 

to 5,576 Guardsmen, a drop of 1,726 students from 

FY 63 total of 7,302. Enrollment in Army Area 

Schools was limited to 620 Guardsmen at the Noncommissioned Officer Academies conducted by each 

Army Commander. 

There were three types of Officer Candidate 

Schools (OCS) available to Army National Guard 

enlisted personnel. Two of these schools, the 23-

week Regular Officer Candidate Course and the 2 Vi 

month Special Officer Candidate Course conducted 

by CONARC, were each held at the US Army 

Infantry School and the US Army Artillery and 

Missile School. The third type of school —the State 

Officer Candidate Schools —was the source of the 

greatest number of second lieutenants for the Army 

National Guard. 

About 15 Guardsmen attended the Regular 

Officer Candidate Courses. Each year, about 500 

Guardsmen are enrolled in the Special Officer Candidate Courses. 

Accredited State Officer Candidate Schools were 

operated by the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, 

and all States except Alaska. It has been deterNew Jersey OCS 

mined that it is not feasible to implement such a 

program in Alaska. The ARNG State OCS Program commences with two weeks of annual field 

training, followed by a minimum of eight weekend 

assemblies and concludes with a second period of 

annual field training. During FY 1964, there were 

approximately 3,500 ARNG officer candidates enrolled in this program. 

In order to expand the State OCS Program to 

sustain requirements for officer personnel predicted 

for 1967 and 1968, new policies have been adopted 

and studies are being made of the program. Among 

the new policies authorized were: (a) Weekend 

assemblies may be conducted in an equivalent training status, (b) Guardsmen in the State OCS Program may be promoted to the grade of E-5 in the 

same manner as those selected for the Regular or 

Special OCS. (c) The subsistence rate per candidate 

was increased from 52 cents to 70 cents. 

Studies are being made toward the expansion 

of the State OCS Program. A revised Table of 

Allowance is being staffed within the Department 

of the Army to incorporate the latest recommendations of the OCS Commandants. In addition, 

it was considered necessary that construction 

criteria be developed with a long range view to 

providing some Federal funds for expansion of 

facilities.

Air Defense Program 

The Army National Guard has been an active 

participant in the air defense of the United States 

since 1954. The ARNG units participating are an 

integral part of the Army's missile air defense system. Initially the Guard manned sites equipped 

with conventional anti-aircraft guns and World War 

II radars. In 1957 to determine if the active Army 

Nike Ajax units could be relieved for other 

military requirements, four missile sites in California 

were taken over by the ARNG. During the ensuing 

years the ARNG has assumed an increasing role 

in the Army Air Defense Program. 

At the beginning of FY 1962, 15 States were 

participating in the Army Air Defense Program in 

16 key industrial and population centers. There 

were 76 Nike Ajax batteries in CONUS and 6 

Nike Hercules batteries in Hawaii. 

In May 1962, the Army National Guard began 

the program to reorganize the existing 76 Nike 

Ajax batteries in CONUS to 48 Nike Hercules 

batteries. This program, which was phased to be 

completed in FY 65, has progressed smoothly. 

During FY 64, the phase out of Nike Ajax 

units and the reorganization and training of Nike 

Hercules units progressed as programmed. The

4 Hercules batteries activated in FY 63 completed 

the 18 months of intensive training and assumed 

their on-site air defense mission. The 34 Ajax 

batteries were released from their tactical mission 

and reorganized into 18 Hercules batteries; and 16 

Hercules batteries completed conversion training and 

became operational and assumed their air defense 

mission. The phase-out and reorganization of the 

last Nike Ajax units in the Norfolk, Virginia, 

area on 18 May 1964, marked the end of the reorganization phase of the conversion to Nike Hercules 

program. 

At the end of FY 64, of the 48 Nike Hercules 

batteries programmed for CONUS, 36 batteries were 

operational on-site and 12 batteries were in conversion training status and programmed to become 

operational in FY 65. The status of the 6 Nike 

Hercules batteries operational on-site in Hawaii remained unchanged. In CONUS, ARNG missile 

batteries provided the air defense for 16 key industrial and metropolitan areas. In Hawaii, the Nike 

Hercules batteries provided air defense for the islands. 

Seventeen States were participating in the Army Air 

Defense Program. 

The year-round training plan for ARNG onsite air defense units, initiated in January 1963, 

has proven to be the most effective method of providing on-site missile units with the manpower to 

meet mission requirements. This concept afforded the 

unit commander a flexibility in the scheduling of 

small manageable groups within the authorized annual field training days to meet actual requirement 

on an "as needed basis." This plan materially increased the effectiveness of training and operational 

capability of the unit. Approximately 80 percent 

of the authorized annual field training days were 

utilized under this plan. 

Evaluation of operational proficiency for the 

ARNG Nike Hercules units for FY 64 revealed an 

improvement of 17 percent in Operational Readiness Evaluation (ORE) scores and an overall improvement in Short Notice Annual Practice (SNAP) 

from 88.15 percent for FY 63 to 90.51 percent for 

FY 64. 

19 
During FY 64, ARNG units, in competition 

with active Army units, repeated their excellence 

of the two previous fiscal years, by winning both 

the coveted Army Air Defense Commander's Outstanding Firing Battery Trophy and the Outstanding 

Firing Battalion Trophy. Two batteries tied for 

first place with a 99.2 percent score, and the battalion won first place with a score of 97.3. These 

accomplishments exemplify the continued improvement of ARNG units in their mission of defending 

our country. 

Special Forces 

Army National Guard Special Forces units 

were organized in 1959 as operational detachments 

in five states. The program has evolved to its 

present organization of three Group Headquarters, 

13 Companies and 3 Separate Detachments located 

in 12 States. Units of the 16th Special Forces 

Group were located in West Virginia, New York, 

Rhode Island, Maryland, and North Carolina. The 

19th Special Forces Group had units in Utah and 

Montana. The 20th Special Forces Group had 

units in Alabama, Mississippi, Florida, and Louisiana. 

USCONARC prescribed training guidance for 

ARNG Special Forces. The National Guard Bureau 

was primarily concerned with the funding aspects 

and administrative support of training. Each Group 

Headquarters was responsible for developing an annual training program (ATP) in accordance with 

directives from USCONARC and the Army Headquarters concerned, following the principles outlined below: 

• All home station assemblies will be of four 

hours duration. The maximum number of these 

will be scheduled as multiple assemblies on successive days (weekend assemblies). 

• Home station training will be accomplished 

at the highest level which is practical. Training 

should not be fragmented below company level. 

• Training during the year should be logically 

progressive pointing toward and tied in with the annual field training period. 

• The annual field training period of one 

company from each Group should be planned at 

the training site and under supervision of a sister 

group. 

• One composite 200-man company consisting of operating detachments from each company 

will be programmed each year to attend the United 

States Army Northern Warfare Training Center 

(USANWTC), Alaska, and the United States Army 

Jungle Warfare Training Center, Panama. 

Each Group Headquarters, in addition to development and supervision of the ATP for the 

Group, was responsible for the repair and repack 

of parachutes and issuance and receipt of equipment. 

40 
New York ARNG Special Forces 

Every member of the Special Forces must become an expert in one of five basic fields—communications, demolitions, operations and intelligence, 

medical, and weapons. In addition, each must be 

cross-trained in one or more of the other basic 

fields. Next, each member is trained in the language, culture, geography, and customs of a specific 

country or region. Competence in small unit tactics, 

patrolling, tactical security and psychological warfare is required of all members. Finally, personnel 

must acquire passable proficiency in such skills as 

mountain-climbing, scuba diving, parachuting, and 

how to live off the land in the Arctic, desert, 

forest, jungle or swamp. 

ARNG Special Forces, to meet training requirements, held more than the 48 paid drill training assemblies per year permitted ARNG units. 

These units averaged 90 to 96 training assemblies 

per year or their equivalent in training hours with 

all above the 48 drills in an unpaid status. 

From 5 September to 8 October 1963, one unit 

from the 16th Special Forces Group participated 

in the active Army Special Forces exercise, April 

Showers, in Europe. 

Ever since the ARNG Special Forces have been 

organized considerable difficulty has been experienced 

in coordinating the training effort, obtaining skilled 

instructors, and in securing equipment in sufficient 

amounts to support weekend training and annual 

field training. In an effort to solve these problems, three Special Forces Centers are being established, one for each Group. 

Each Group Headquarters will be responsible for 

the administration of its center to include scheduling of equipment for use by the companies and 

those of other Groups during home station training, and for the transportation of equipment to and 

from the center. 

Scarce equipment will be concentrated at the 

centers for use by all units. Special Forces units 

will be scoured for competent instructors in skills 

and these too will be pooled for annual field training. The centers will repack and repair parachutes 

and repair equipment-used by its companies. 

In addition to allowances of equipment for the 

Group Headquarters and Headquarters Company,, 

the centers will be authorized items and amounts 

of specialized equipment pertinent to the type of 

training conducted at the site. 

Army Advisors 

On 30 June 1964, there were 791 officers on 

duty with the Army National Guard as Army Advisors. This is 78.9 percent of the 1,003 advisors 

determined to be the minimum number required 

for effective support of the ARNG program under 

present conditions. There was a loss of 44 advisors 

during the fiscal year. 

Shortages of advisors exist in all branches except Transportation Corps. The most significant 

shortages are in Medical Corps, 23 advisors; Quartermaster Corps, 18 advisors; Signal Corps, 30 advisors; Engineer Corps, 27 advisors.

as a result of the 11 June 1963 call of Alabama 

National Guard units to enforce the Federal Court 

Order which integrated the University of Alabama. 

On 10 September 1963, the entire Alabama 

National Guard was called to active duty to enforce a Federal Court Order integrating public 

schools in Alabama. These units were phased 

out of active Federal service over a four month 

period with the last elements being returned to State 

control on 14 December 1963. 

LOGISTICS 

The status of equipment in the Army National 

Guard has improved, and every effort is being 

directed toward improving the Guard's mobilization 

readiness. To insure the best possible equipment 

of high priority units, redistribution of assets within the Guard, such as armored personnel carriers, 

howitzers and tanks, is being accomplished. A limited quanity of new self-propelled and towed artillery 

weapons, armored personnel carriers, tank recovery 

vehicles, rocket launchers, scoop loaders, water purification sets and generators has been received. Other 

items of equipment are programmed for issue to 

Guard units and distribution plans have been furnished Department of the Army agencies. 

Mobility 

Mobility in the Army National Guard has improved during the past year with the continued 

acceptance of "as is" wheeled vehicles. Of the 

1,278 wheeled vehicles offered to the States, a number 

were not acceptable, and others not in a repairable 

condition were accepted to obtain the useable parts 

which could be recovered from them. 

M-IH Armored Persor. 

Other vehicles received by the ARNG included 

new Ml 13 Armored Personnel Carriers and M59 

Armored Personnel Carriers acquired from the Active 

Army. Additional quantities of the Ml 13 and M59 

Armored Personnel Carriers are expected in FY 1965. 

Also received from new production were Tank Recovery Vehicles, M88. 

Firepower 

Self-Propelled 105mm Special Howitzer 

During the past fiscal year, there was a modest 

increase in ARNG firepower equipment. Although 

some of this equipment was accepted on an "as is" 

basis, it provided increased training capability and 

contributed toward an improved equipment posture. 

A number of 105mm howitzers, self-propelled 

and towed, were added to the firepower equipment 

inventory. These howitzers were M108's, M52's, 

and MlOl's, towed. Distribution was made according to predetermined priorities. 

A limited number of new 115 mm, M91 rocket 

launchers were accepted for distribution to authorized 

organizations. Five M31 Training Kits for use with 

the 762M Honest John Launcher were accepted from 

the U.S. Marine Corps excess and distributed to 

assist in training prior to active firing at annual 

field training. States receiving this training aid were 

Massachusetts, North Carolina, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Tennessee. Arrangements have been 

completed to provide the State of New York with 

an M31 Training Kit. 

Communications 

Very little signal equipment was received by the 

Army National Guard. The lack of new Area 

Communication equipment continues to present a 

training problem with the States utilizing World War 

II equipment to the extent possible. A recent dis42 
tribution was made of AN/VRC-7, Standard B radios, 

a quantity of SB-86 switchboards, arid AN/GER-5 

radios to Immediate Reserve units but shipments 

have not been completed to date. Distribution plans 

for a few new AN/VRC-12 radios for six divisions 

and 4 Armored Cavalry Regiments were completed 

with shipment expected during the first quarter of 

FY 1965. 

Tactical Support 

The equipment posture of support units improved 

during the past fiscal year. Additional equipment 

including some new items was received into the ARNG 

inventory. Modern water purification sets and 

generators were received by units and more are 

programmed for shipment. The new type scoop loader 

came into the Guard system. Bridging equipment 

enhanced the training capability of units. This 

equipment provided the Army National Guard units 

with the capability to spend more time in the field 

to participate to a greater extent in field exercises 

with active Army units. 

Bridge built during DESERT STRIKE 

Organizational Equipment and Clothing 

For FY 64, the States required funds totaling 

$32,880,000 to provide federally recognized ARNG 

units TOE/TA equipment necessary for armory 

training; initial post-mobilization training; to provide 

office, shop and warehouse equipment essential to 

the functions of supply, maintenance and advisor 

activities; and to replace items that were not economically repairable. The approved budget furnished 15 

percent ($4,799,000) of the required sum. 

Winter clothing and equipment was redistributed 

where possible to States in the northern portion of 

CONUS to permit outdoor training during the winter 

months. 

Maintenance 

Army National Guard maintenance capabilities 

were tested in the joint exercise DESERT STRIKE 

which placed heavy emphasis on the ability of the 

units to keep their tanks, wheeled vehicles and other 

tactical equipment in an operational condition. The 

high degree of technical skill and capabilities of the 

Guardsmen and the units was proven. However, the 

effects of shortages of repair parts was also demonstrated. The California ARNG units participating in 

the exercise with 427_ vehicles were forced to retrieve 

150 of these vehicles from the maneuver area. The 

"after exercise" maintenance requirements at home 

station on maneuver equipment placed a heavy 

burden on the States involved. 

During the latter part of 1963, conferences of 

State Maintenance Officers (SMO's) were held in the 

six CONUS Army areas. Smaller, "round the table" 

type maintenance discussions were held between the 

State Maintenance Officers and NGB maintenance 

personnel. Also attending these conferences were 

representatives of CONARC, commodity commands, 

and depots. 

ORGANIZATIONAL MAINTENANCE 

Emphasis continued to be placed on preventive 

maintenance. A new Command Maintenance Management Inspection System of scoring and rating a unit 

on maintenance operation and condition of equipment was put into effect. This system is expected 

to pinpoint problem areas at all levels, especially at 

the organizational level. 

ARNG reorganization required the redistribution 

of organizational maintenance missions with the result 

that 896 Organizational Maintenance Shops were 

authorized. Of the total authorized, 563 were adequate 

and 165 required modification, leaving construction 

of 168 new buildings and facilities to be planned. 

SUPPORT MAINTENANCE 

The Combined Support Maintenance Shops 

(formerly Combined Field Maintenance Shops) 

supply direct and general support for ARNG 

equipment. Since many major items of equipment 

(especially tactical wheeled and track vehicles) are 

being received in an "as is" condition, it became 

necessary in many States for these shops to assume 

the additional workload of placing large numbers of 

vehicles in servicable condition prior to issue to units. 

Many of these vehicles require extensive repairs. 

43 
ARMY AIRCRAFT REPAIR SHOPS 

ARNG Aircraft Repair Shop 

The Army National Guard operation of three 

4th Echelon Aircraft Maintenance Shops continued 

during the past year. Aircraft maintenance by these 

shops as part of the "One Army" team was further 

expanded and the shop of the 217th Transportation 

Battalion, Fresno, California, supported approximately 450 Army aircraft participating in exercise 

DESERT STRIKE. This unit was the primary 4th 

Echelon Maintenance Point in the exercise area. As 

a result of the record made by the battalion during 

DESERT STRIKE, additional exercise missions can 

be expected for the 142d Transporation Battalion, 

Missouri, and the 162d Transportation Battalion, 

Connecticut. The mobilization readiness of these 

units was constantly increased through exercise participation and day-to-day operation of each shop by 

its 50-man ARNG technician crew. 

ARMY AVIATION MAINTENANCE 

During FY 64, ARNG aircraft flew 203,413 

hours. This was accomplished using an inventory of 

aircraft that sustained a reduction as shown below: 

Fixed Wing Rotary Wing 

30 June 1963 582 303 

30 June 1964 579 300 

- 3 -3 

Also included in the 1964 inventory were 70 flight 

simulators. 

The support of ARNG aircraft with 1st through 

3d Echelon maintenance was done primarily by the 

ARNG technicians manning Army Aviation Maintenance Shops in the several States. Knowledge of 

equipment and maintenance by these technicians 

was instrumental in the high aircraft availability that 

permitted the attainment of more than 200,000 flying hours. 

CROSS SERVICE MAINTENANCE AGREEMENTS 

The authority for the States to enter into cross 

service maintenance agreements with the USAR and 

active Army for the support maintenance of their 

equipment was continued in FY 1964. 

The legality of these cross service agreements 

was questioned by the Comptroller General of the 

United States, and they were ruled illegal in October 

1963. The NGB requested a review, and the 

Comptroller General of the United States then ruled 

that even though no statutory authority exists for 

the transactions involved, there appeared no question 

that the agreements are in the interests of the 

government and, pending corrective legislative action, 

would raise no further objection at this time. 

In view of the above and present congressional 

legislative action, cross service agreements were continued. During FY 1964, there were 18 agreements 

with the USAR, 6 with the active Army, and 2 with 

the Marine Corps for a total of 26 cross service 

maintenance agreements. 

INSTALLATIONS 

ARNG Military Construction Program 

2-Vnil Armory 

Under the National Defense Facilities Act of 

1950, as amended, Federal funds have been available 

for construction of facilities since 1952. Under this 

Act, Federal contributions to the States may not 

exceed 75 percent of the cost of the authorized armory 

44 
construction. These funds may be used by a State 

for the acquisition, construction, expansion, rehabilitation or conversion of facilities required for training, operation, and maintenance of its Army National 

Guard units. Non-armory construction, and also 

expansion, rehabilitation or conversion of existing 

State-owned facilities made necessary by the reorganization of units, are supported 100 percent by Federal 

funds. 

From FY 1953 through FY 1964, the Congress 

has appropriated a total of $183.3 million for armory 

construction and $36.6 million for non-armory construction. 

The chart below illustrates armory construction 

obligations for FY 1953 through FY 1964.

Obligations for non-armory construction for FY 

1953 through FY 1964 total $36,337,353 (including 

$2,630,587 eviction funds). These funds provided 

for the construction of Combined Support Maintenance Shops (formerly Combined Field Maintenance Shops), Organizational Maintenance Shops, 

Army Aviation Maintenance Shops, U.S. Property 

and Fiscal Officers Offices & Warehouses, and troop 

facilities at summer training camps. 

The FY 1964, Army National Guard Military 

Construction Program supported the construction of 

new armory and non-armory facilities and the continued alteration, expansion, and rehabilitation of 

existing facilities to keep pace with the reorganization 

and increased training'requirements of ARNG units. 

Carry-over funds amounted to $11.1 million which, 

added to the new appropriation by the Congress of 

$5.7 million, made a total fund availability of $16.8 

million for the FY 1964 ARNG Military Construction 

Program. 

The obligation target for the year was established 

at $10.5 million. This obligational target wasexceeded by $2.9 million. There remains a carry-over into 

FY 65 of $3.4 million. This accomplishment of obligating $13.4 million, most of the available funds, 

was due to early advance planning and design and 

expediting contract awards after receipt of firm 

project approval and funding.

During FY 1964, a new analysis was made of 

the total foreseeable future construction requirements 

for facilities to support the Army National Guard. 

As shown in the above chart there were 1,811 adequate 

armory facilities either completed or under construction as of 30 June 1964; and there were 996 inadequate armory facilities which will require new 

construction, expansion, rehabiliitation, or conversion 

in FY 1965 and forward. For 745 of the inadequate 

facilities, new armories are proposed; for 251, alteration, addition, expansion or conversion to existing 

buildings are required. The remaining dollar requirement to replace or alter the 996 inadequate 

armory facilities is estimated to be approximately 

$148.7 million. 

The remaining dollar requirement to complete 

the 802 non-armory projects for FY 1965 and forward is estimated to be approximately $96.8 million. 

COMBINED SUPPORT 

MAINTENANCE SHOPS 

Combined Support Maintenance Shops (formerly 

Combined Field Maintenance Shops) are authorized 

for construction on the basis of one per State. 

However, in a State which (1) has two or more 

divisions, (2) is authorized Field Training Equipment 

Concentration Sites, or (3) has unusual geographical 

considerations, additional shops or sub-shops are 

authorized. Hawaii is an example of a geographical 

consideration. Field maintenace of all Federal 

equipment issued to the State, except aircraft, is performed at these facilities. As of 30 June 1964, 

Federal funds have been utilized in the constitution 

of 48 Combined Support Maintenance Shops. 

ORGANIZATIONAL 

MAINTENANCE SHOPS 

These shops are authorized for each battalion, 

comparable organization, or grouping units. Organizational maintenance is performed at these facilities 

on all Federal equipment issued to the units, except 

aircraft. A total of 120 organizational maintenance 

shops have been constructed with Federal funds since 

the inception of this construction program. 

ARMY AVIATION 

MAINTENANCE SHOPS 

These shops are authorized for construction on 

the basis of one per State for each state having five 

or more assigned Army Aircraft, except that States 

having two divisions are authorized two such shops. 

All organizational and field maintenance on Army 

fixed and rotary wing aircraft and allied equipment 

issued to the State is performed at these facilities. 

Thirty-four (34) shop hangars have been built with 

Federal funds from the beginning of the construction 

program. 

U. S. PROPERTY AND FISCAL 

OFFICER OFFICES & 

WAREHOUSES 

An office and warehouse is authorized each State 

for use by the United States Property and Fiscal 

Officer in administration, receipt, storage, and issue 

of all Federal property required for use by the Army 

National Guard. As of 30 June 1964, Federal funds 

have been used in the construction of 19 USP&FO 

offices and 29 USP&FO warehouses. 

REAL PROPERTY 

The National Guard Bureau renders all possible 

assistance to the States in licensing appropriate 

federally owned facilities and in leasing certain types 

of privately owned facilities for Army National 

Guard use. 

During FY 1964, under this program, the ARNG 

utilized the following types of facilities; 

223 Federally owned facilities 

119 Privately owned facilities under Federal lease, including 

31 Army Advisor offices 

3 USPFO offices 

5 0 Target range sites 

27 Aircraft facilities 

5 Orgnizational maintenance shops 

46 
Repairs and Utilities vehicle hardstand areas; 4 arms vaults; 19 

miscellaneous roof, floor and door modifications. 

To maintain, repair and operate Army National 

Guard facilities, $3,419,864 was obligated in fiscal 

year 1964 under 58 Service Contract agreements with 

the States. 

To support Repairs and Utilities (R&U) projects 

for minor new construction, alteration, extension, or 

relocation, $686,749 was obligated. These projects 

included the alteration of various inadequate Organizational and Combined Support Maintenance Shops 

and the construction of the following facilities to 

provide for the efficient storage, and first and second 

echelon repair and maintenance of vehicles at all 

levels of command: 14 flammable material storage 

buildings; 11 vehicle wash racks; 2 battery rooms; 

31 fuel dispensing systems; 12 security fencing 

projects; 21 vehicle exhaust control systems; 13 

FEDERALLY CONTROLLED INSTALLATIONS 

Troop Facilities at Field Training Sites 

These facilities are designed to provide the 

essential requirements for support of Army National 

Guard units during their period of annual field 

training. Facilities may include kitchens, mess halls, 

bath latrines, supply and administration buildings, 

headquarters buildings, and barracks. 

A total of $3,914,081 was obligated to support 

the opening, operating and closing out costs of 

annual field training sites. Of this amount $2,399,482 

was obligated at 76 federally controlled training sites 

and $1,514,599 at 40 State controlled training sites.

Air National Guard 

FOREWORD 

During fiscal year 1964, the Air Guard reached a "Ready Now" posture never before 

achieved. Units were reorganized with emphasis on self support and sustained operation. Tactical 

forces were provided with fly-away kits and full clothing bags to enable the units to be more 

mobile and training was reoriented toward reacting to an emergency anywhere in the world with 

a 24-hour notice. Mobility was stressed by overseas peacetime deployments supported by Air 

Guard units and maximum participation in joint exercises with the active Army and the active 

Air Force. A global transport capability was attained with overseas operational exercise missions 

completed nearly every day. Tactical units became a force that could be deployed to Europe — 

not in five days by "island-hopping" as in the Berlin crisis —but in nine hours nonstop. 

ANG TAC units keep pushing their capability with Europe and beyond as the goal. An 

inflight refueling capability was achieved that enabled the Air Guard to make long, nonstop deployments. These flights were supported by ANG tankers and cargo planes. In August 1963 

in Operation Minuteman Alpha, twelve RF-84's made a nonstop 3,500 mile flight from Birmingham, Alabama, to Anchorage, Alaska. This history making trip proved that the Air Guard 

could get to Europe fast if the need arose. Now ready for the first nonstop overwater deployment, eighteen F-100's flew nonstop from Andrews AFB, Maryland, to Puerto Rico. Lt Gen 

Walter J. Sweeney of the Tactical Air Command had this to say about it: "The outstanding 

success of Operation Canecutter clearly demonstrated the increasing capability of Air National 

Guard units to move rapidly and efficiently over long distances. The execution of this mission 

in such an exemplary manner conclusively demonstrated the professional competence of all participants . . . ." 

The strength of the ANG reached an all time high of 75,137 on 31 January 1964, and the 

Office of the Secretary of Defense increased the strength ceiling from 72,000 to 75,000 for FY 

1964 and subsequent years. 
The Air National Guard flew a total of 433,458 hours with the lowest accident rate in its 

history of 6.92 per 100,000 hours flying time. 

The first F-105 was received by the New Jersey ANG. A jet augmentation modification to 

increase air speed and altitude capability was begun on a KC-97 airplane. A successful prototype will open the way for similar modifications of all K.C-97's and permit aerial refueling of 

century series aircraft. 

In Guardlift I, ANG transport units airlifted 76 units to and from annual field training 

sites. 

With the reorganization of the aeromedical units to air transport, the mission of these units 

was changed to a dual mission of air transport/aeromedical transport. 

To maintain a high level of readiness and to provide assistance to the active forces, the 

Air National Guard participated in several joint exercises. In Swift Strike III, 128 tactical aircraft supported by 18 heavy transports from 10 States participated. In Desert Strike, tactical 

fighters logged over 1,700 hours, flying over 900 sorties, and 120 transports flew 114 missions airlifting over 4,600 passengers and 205 tons of cargo to and from the exercise site. In addition, 

two Air Guard tactical control groups provided command communications for the entire force, 

and two Guard refuelling squadrons were used to enable ANG tactical fighter aircraft from the 

East Coast to fly nonstop to the exercise. This concept of operation and training is in keeping 

with the President's cost reduction program to get a dollars worth of value for every dollar 

spent. 

Today the Air National Guard is much more than a wartime mobilization force. It is a 

vital part of the aerospace force in being—ready to respond to any emergency. 
COMPTROLLER FUNCTIONS 

Budget 

The President's budget for FY 1964 contained 

estimates for the Air National Guard in the Military 

Construction, Operation and Maintenance, and National Guard Personnel, Air Force, appropriations. 

The US Air Force (USAF) and Department of 

Defense (DOD) approved program guidance was 

followed in the development and preparation of 

these estimates. Congressional approval resulted 

in new obligating authority as follows: Military 

Construction —$ 16,000,000; Operations and Maintenance, ANG-S222,700,000; and National Guard 

Personnel, Air Force —$58,300,000. These amounts 

combined with $6.7 million in prior year construction funds and approximately $1.3 million in anticipated reimbursements provided a total availability 

of $305,012,000 at the beginning of the fiscal year 

to meet Air National Guard requirements. 

Additional requirements of $3.2 million were generated in military personnel funding as a result of 

the military pay raise which became effective on 

1 October 1963. This requirement was met through 

the means of a supplemental appropriation passed 

by the Congress. Other program changes occurred 

throughout the fiscal year which resulted in a final 

availability in each of the appropriations as reflected 

in the table below:

ments for O& M and National Guard Personnel appropriations Also includes supplemental 

appropriation in National Guard Personnel to cover military pay raise as of 1 October 1963 

'Percent obligated as of 30 June 1964. 

The level of operation and maintenance funding 

allowed a degree of progress toward the satisfaction 

of equipment shortages which have existed for several 

years. Continued progress is anticipated in this area. 

Military personnel funding levels provided for a 

balance program and were in consonance with all 

approved program items. 

Continued progress was made in the ANG military construction program of providing facilities in 

accordance with approved programs, force structure, 

and equipment objectives. Since appropriations in 

support of this program are continuing or "no year" 

appropriations, progress from a financial point of 

view is thertfore being expressed in like terms. Against 

a total FY 1964 availability of $22,668,000-which 

included $16,000,000 of new appropriation —construction agencies awarded contracts and obligated funds 

in the amount of $14,717,337 or 64.9% of the program. Additionally, projects totalling $2,730,000 

were advertised for bids during the month of June. 

The balance of unobligated funds represents Government costs of construction projects in progress. 

Greater emphasis was placed on budget estimates 

and financial plans received from the States during 

this fiscal year. Initial funding to the States, Puerto 

Rico and the District of Columbia was, to the maximum extent possible, based on these budget submissions received in the NGB. The final major 

funding adjustments were made in mid-February which 

responded to revised financial plans submitted by 

the States in the latter part of January. Progress 

continues in the quality and apparent validity of 

estimates received from operating locations. This 

progress coupled with a careful monitoring and 

analysis of financial programs and progression has 

again resulted in a most successful utilization of 

available funds 

Accounting and Finance 

A special issue of the National Guard Bulletin 

was published containing a checklist of specific inactive duty pay entitlements and payroll procedures 

cross-referenced to the applicable Air Force and ANG 

directives. Using this checklist, each ANG commander 

and other personnel responsible for the administration, preparation, and examination of inactive duty 

pay entitlements and payroll procedures were requested 

to perform an in-house audit of past payments over 

a three-year period. 

Other accomplishments in the area of pay and 

allowances were: 

Joint Travel Regulations were revised to authorize 

members of the Air National Guard and Air Force 

Reserve per diem for Permanent Change of Station 

50 
(PCS) and Temporary Duty (TDY) travel performed 

in same calendar day.

perform additional flying training periods (AFTP's) 

while in a travel status were liberalized. 

Direct mailing of paychecks to members for unit 

training assembly (UTA) attendance was authorized. 

Payroll deduction system was initiated for allotment authorizations to the National Guard Association of the United States (NGAUS) Insurance 

Trust. 

Use of a payroll voucher system (in lieu of 

opening pay records) was authorized for ANG members on short periods of Federal mobilized duty. 

Elimination of requirement that ANG officers 

must report for Federal mobilized duty before being 

entitled to pay. 

Exemption of ANG officers from Visiting Officer Quarters (VOQ) service charges at USAF bases 

when not in a per diem status. 

Instead of a lump sum deduction at the beginning of the fiscal year, monthly deductions throughout the fiscal year were made from the retired pay 

of flight engineers who are retired from active 

military services. 

Entitlement to family separation allowances for 

ANG members on ACDUTRA tours of over 30 days. 

Application of War Orphans Educational Assistance Act to the children of ANG members who die 

from injuries received during training duty. 

Authority was obtained to convert to the extent 

necessary the 36 additional inactive duty flying training periods to active duty training days. 

Data Systems 

Fiscal year 1964 began with the Base Mechanization Program (formerly Punch-Card Mechanization 

Program) started in FY 62, still in its infancy 

stage, where a capability to provide training locally in 

punch card systems was paramount. This program 

developed through the year to one now contributing 

much towards the accomplishment of the Air Guard's 

day-to-day record keeping. There was a substantial 

increase in the number of ANG bases using punch 

card accounting machine (PCAM) equipment; in the 

number of bases successfully implementing mechanized 

systems; in the amount and quality of training 

(formal and informal) performed; and in the interest 

and enthusiasm in data systems generated throughout 

the Air Guard. This growth in the Base Mechanization Program has contributed to the increased operational readiness posture of ANG units. 

All eighty-eight ANG flying bases now have on 

hand series 50 PCAM gear. During FY 64, PCAM 

equipment deliveries were made to the last 22 bases, 

with all except one base receiving shipment prior to 

October 1963. By the end of FY 64, these bases 

were well into implementation of punch card systems. 

ANG Base Data Processing Activity 

Bases that were in the program from inception 

began to experience growing pains. National Guard 

Bureau and local requirements for data processing 

support and products were beginning to tax the 

speed and capability of our equipment. The authorization, on 1 July 1963, of a full-time data processing 

machine operator alleviated the critical manning 

shortage for those bases able to fill the position. 

Some bases were unable to fill this position due to 

man-year limitations. To increase present data 

processing capability, specific equipment change proposals were prepared to provide a speedup of some 

machines and to add a few specialty items where 

needed. These proposed changes would enable more 

and varied workloads to be accomplished. 

In addition to the many requirements for creation 

of punch card input for reports and/or processing to 

an off-base activity, the following represents standard 

systems which are implemented in the functional 

areas of most ANG bases. 

• Supply and Services —stock record accounts and 

equipment management account. 

• Aircraft Maintenance — manhour/maintenance 

data collection system and bench stock inventory. 

• Comptroller — accounting (appropriation, financial inventory, and general ledger), civilian pay, 

and machine utilization. 
• Civilian Personnel —time/attendance and leave 

accounting. 

• Military Personnel — uniform officer record 

system. 

• Motor Vehicle —vehicle operations data system. 

These systems involve daily or periodic processing utilizing most machines in the standard PCAM 

equipment package including key punch, sorter, 

accounting machine, reproducing punch and interpreter. 

Besides the basic technical training courses in 

Data Systems attended by many ANG officers and 

airmen, approval and implementation of two programs during fiscal year 1964 contributed greatly to 

raising the proficiency level of personnel. The first 

program was the special two-week refresher courses 

established for ANG officers at Sheppard AFB, 

Texas, during the period March through September 

1964. Based on prior indications of interest from 

ANG officers the courses included: Data Systems (44 

spaces) during March; Accounting and Finance (52 

spaces) during April; Budget (44 spaces) during May 

and June; and Comptroller (74 spaces) subsequent to 

1 July 1964. The other program allows four ANG 

airman at a time to perform practical on-the-job 

training (OJT) at the ANG Data Processing Center, 

St. Louis, in a field training status. This OJT 

provides required familiarization with PCAM gear not 

available to their home station. As of 30 June 1964, 

nine airmen completed the OJT and an additional 

forty-four are scheduled for FY 65. 

During FY 1964, the ANG Data Processing 

Center continued to perform its mission of a command 

central data processing function for the Air National 

Guard. Establishment of the National Guard Bureau 

Command Equipment Management Office (CEMO) 

account, during August, and fund reporting, during 

February, were the two largest single data processing applications assumed this year. Effective in 

June, the Center is no longer preparing base AFM 

66-1 reports. Only the depot cards are now being 

processed through the Center. Plans were made for 

a significant expansion of the fund reporting system 

to provide greater budgetary management data. Plans, 

scheduled for implementation in July 1964, were 

made for a significant expansion of the fund reporting system to provide greater budgetary management data. The Center was called upon to perform 

many one time report consolidations from files 

maintained or from special card submissions b\ the 

States. There were no significant equipment changes 

made during the year. 

Other functions being performed by the ANG 

Data Processing Center include airman OJT training 

previously mentioned and maintenance of ANGM 

171-(Tent.) which contains the standard data processing instructions for base level operations. This manual 

of almost 500 pages was substantially revised during 

the year due to a major change in the supply system 

(most items procured under Program 410 were changed 

to Program 420) and the adoption of new procedures 

for Base Equipment Management Office (BEMO), 

civilian pay, and civilian time/attendance and leave. 

Special ANG key punch card formats for the manhour/maintenance data collection system were rescinded and the USAF formats adopted completely. 

ANG Data Processing Center personnel also have 

assisted many individual bases in getting the 

mechanization program started by short assistance 

visits. 

PERSONNEL 

Military Strength 

On 30 June 1964, the federally recognized strength 

of the Air National Guard was 73,217. The average 

strength for the year was 74,405. As an outgrowth 

of the "Try One " recruiting program, the strength 

of the Air National Guard reached an all time 

high of 75,137 on 31 January 1964. with 9,971 

officers and 65,166 airmen. This was 3,137 in excess 

of the 72,000 limitation imposed by the Office of 

the Secretary of Defense (OSD). Additional spaces 

were requested and OSD increased the strength ceiling 

of the Air National Guard to 75,000 for FY 1964 and 

subsequent years. 

The year-end strength was 1,108 under that of 

FY 63 and approximately 2.4 percent under the programmed fiscal year-end strength of 75,000. To obtain a more balanced rated-nonrated officer force. 

5.2 
New Jersey ANG annual field training review 

emphasis was placed on procurement of junior officers to fill critical skill vacancies and rated positions. 

This resulted in a decrease in officers in the last 

five months of FY 1964. During this same period, 

there was a decrease in airmen strength due to the 

termination of one-year enlistments authorized by 

the "Try One" recruiting program and a reduction 

in the normal input of non-prior service enlistees. 

For comparison purposes, Air National Guard 

personnel strengths for FY 1958 through FY 1964 

are shown below:

Officer Procurement 

There were 1,472 officers procured during FY 64 

to fill existing vacancies from the following sources: 

Air Force Reserve, direct commission of ANG airmen, individuals from certain civilian professions, 

individuals for pilot and navigator training, and other. 

Recognizing that high attrition of the World War 

II officers was inevitable in the FY 1967-72 period, 

the National Guard Bureau programmed officer 

spaces 200 higher than the previous level, raising 

the paid officer spaces from 9,800 to 10,000. This 

will allow additional junior officers to be training 

for the spaces which will be vacated by mandatory 

retirements. 

Officer Promotions 

During FY 1964, the following unit vacancy 

promotions were effected: 

Brigadier general to major general 1 

Colonel to brigadier general (2 tenure of office)... . 4

Rated Officers 

The Air National Guard continued to have a 

shortage of rated officers, the largest shortages existing in the pilot area. The 30 June 1964 pilot 

strength was 3,310, approximately 8.1 percent under 

the programmed fiscal year-end strength of 3,600. 

Ij 
Year-end programmed and assigned strengths for 

officers on flying status are as follows: 

Programmed Assigned

Navigators 491 461 

Radar-Intercept Officers 234 188 

Flight Surgeons, Air Evac Medical Officers 223 128 

Flight Nurses 342 175 

A shortage of younger pilots in the Air National 

Guard, as well as those available for procurement 

from the Air Force Reserve, emphasized the need 

for additional ANG pilot training spaces. 

During FY 1964, Aeronautical Rating Boards 

examined the pilot qualifications of officers of other 

US services who applied for a commission in the 

Air National Guard as a Reserve of the Air Force. 

These boards approved the applications of 16 individuals, and they were placed on flying status with 

a rating of pilot. 

Eighteen Flying Evaluation Boards were held in 

the States and reviewed in the National Guard Bureau. 

The flying status of 244 ANG officers was revalidated. 

Officer Effectiveness Reports 

In April 1964 to report duty performance of officers, the Air National Guard changed from AF 

Form 1085 to AF Form 77 (Company Grade Officer 

Effectiveness Report) and AF Form 707 (Field 

Grade Officer Effectiveness Report). These forms 

are also used by the Air Force to report duty 

performance of officers on active duty. TheAF Forms 

77 and 707 are designed to provide a more comprehensive evaluation of an officer by including more 

rating factors than the AF Form 1085. This should 

be of prime importance to ANG officers when their 

effectiveness reports are reviewed by the various 

boards, e.g., promotion board. This change was 

considered an important step in the current trend 

to avoid unwarranted distinction between officers 

on extended active duty (EAD) and those not on 

EAD. 

Concurrent with the adoption of the new forms, 

AFM 36-10 (Officer Effectiveness, Performance, and 

Training Reports) became applicable to the Air 

National Guard. Significant changes under this 

manual were (1) an officer will not be shown his 

report at the time of accomplishment, but rather, 

will be "counseled" by his supervisor approximately 

midpoint of the reporting period, and (2) a report 

will not cover a period of less than 180 days. 

Officer Retirement Information Project 

The Officer Retirement Information Project was 

nearing completion. The project will provide ANG 

organizations with a copy of NGB Form 024 (NGB 

Consolidated Retirement Record) for each assigned 

officer. This will enable the National Guard Bureau 

to processs an application for transfer to the Retired 

Reserve in a matter of minutes, compared to the 

several weeks required before the use of NGB Form 

024. 

In addition, the availability of this form at ANG 

units will provide the capability for input of retirement data to magnetic tape for electronic data processing. This system will make available to all 

interested agencies retirement data which previously 

was obtained only through extensive and time-consuming research. 

Airmen Procurement 

During FY 1964, 4,651 prior servicemen enlisted 

in the Air National Guard. The non-prior service 

enlistments in the 17 to 18 '/i year age group were 

210 and in the 18 Vi and over group were 7,745. 

Again this year, there was an increase in the proportion of older, non-prior service airmen enlisted. 

Airmen gains (non-prior, by age group, and prior 

service) are shown below for FY 1959 through FY 

1964.

The attrition rate in FY 1964 was 21.5 percent 

as compared to 25.6 percent in FY 1963. This higher 

than normal attrition rate resulted from the termination of one year enlistments authorized by the "Try 

One" recruiting program in effect in FY 1963. 

During the year, 32.4 percent of the airmen 

whose enlistments expired reenlisted without a break 

in service.

Specialty Knowledge Testing 

Specialty Knowledge Tests measure job knowledge and were used in conjunction with other criteria 

for upgrading to the next higher skill level of 

individual specialties. 

Five and seven level tests were administered to 

9,241 airmen during the year, a /najority of whom 

attained scores in the unquestionably qualified category. Tests for upgrading to the 3-skill level were 

administered and scored locally; therefore, statistics 

were not available. Breakdown of test in the 5-

and 7- skill level is as follows:

Other Personnel Research Tests 

No significant change in aptitude tests utilized 

by the Air National Guard occurred in FY 1964. 

During the year, 633 US AF Supervisory Examinations (USAFSE) were administered to airmen for 

the purpose of determining prerequisite supervisory 

aptitude and leadership ability for promotion to 

grades E-8 and E-9. Of the number examined, 

65.9 percent obtained passing scores. 

Air Technician Program 

The Air National Guard technicians are the hard 

core of highly skilled, full-time personnel in ANG 

units. As members of the units in which they are 

full-time State employees, they are highly trained 

personnel who can immediately and effectively respond 

upon mobilization. 

The air technician strength on 30 June 1964 

was 15,350. This was an increase of 532 over the 

30 June 1963 strength of 14,818. The majority 

of the increase was provided to support assumption of 

a nuclear capability in certain Air Defense Command 

units and increased weapons systems maintenance 

and security requirements. 

During FY 1964, three more States included 

ANG technicians in State retirement programs 

bringing the total participating to 17 States, the 

Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and District of 

Columbia with 5,134 ANG technicians covered by 

State retirement systems. Maximum contribution by 

the Federal government is 6.5 percent of the ememployee's compensation. 

During the year, the standard air technician 

manning document system, which was developed for 

flying units during FY 1963, was expanded to include, communications and electronics units. This 

system provided manning equality for like-units 

with like-equipment consistent with mission requirements. The program continued to reflect a manning 

deficiency of approximately 10 percent. Available 

resources restricted actual manning to a maximum of 

90 percent of the total requirement. 

To eliminate the inconsistencies between the 

Army and the Air Technician Programs, a committee 

composed of Army and Air Guard officers developed 

a joint National Guard regulation. This regulation, 

NGR 51/ANGR 40-01, implemented in January 

1964, provided a standardized policy for administration of both programs, and simplified considerably 

the administration of the technician program at State 

and local levels. 

The Air Technician Advisory Committee organized in FY 1963, conducted five meetings during 

the year. The committee reviewed and evaluated 

all recommendations pertaining to the over-all 

program concerning policy, grade changes, and new 

55 
positions. The thorough investigations and sound 

recommendations of this committee have been invaluable to the technician program. 

ANG Technician 

Compensation Schedule II of the Federal Salary 

Reform Act of 1962 (PL 87-793, 11 October 1962) 

was implemented for classified employees. Normal 

within-grade raises and revised Wage Board increases 

were granted during the year. 

School Training 

Training in Instrument Shop 

The Air National Guard continued to place 

personnel in its pilot and navigator training programs, 

which in general consisted of undergraduate flying 

training and advanced flying training conducted by 

the Air Force for ANG officers and aviation cadets. 

Spaces were provided in the Air Force flying schools 

for the advanced training of all ANG fighter-interceptor pilots and tactical fighter pilots following their 

graduation from basic flying training. Further qualification training in mission aircraft was conducted 

by the parent ANG unit. 

All non-prior service airmen are required, as a 

condition cf enlistment, to complete USAF basic military training (BMT). After completion of the 

6-week BMT at Lackland Air Force Base, ANG 

airmen continued training at either a technical school 

or on-the-job training for a minimum of 4 months 

active duty for training to qualify the individual in 

his assigned AFSC. 

Various familiarization courses and special training courses were also made available to Air Guardsmen. Listed below are the ANG training programs 

with the number of individuals entering training during FY 1964 and the number who were in training 

on 30 June 1964.

On-The-Job Training 

The National Guard Bureau assumed the prime 

responsibility for on-the-job training (OJT) which 

had been subjected to the uncoordinated staff actions 

of each of the gaining commands. As a result of 

this change, there was a definite increase in interest 

by ANG commanders in on-the-job training. Responsibility for the OJT program in the National 

Guard Bureau was transferred from the Operations 

and Training Division to the Personnel Division in 

September 1963. The Air National Guard was also 

converting to a new "Dual Channel OJT Concept," 

56 
a systematic, reportable application of self-study and 

the craftsmen-apprenticeship relationship. 

Personnel Data System 

Implementation of the Air National Guard Personnel Data System continued throughout the year. 

This system, designed to provide through electronic 

data processing for personnel accounting and reporting and maintenance of current personnel information, 

was compatible with the active Air Force data system (PDS-O and PDS-A), and would make possible immediate electronic transfer of data into that 

system upon mobilization of the Air National Guard. 

Input for the system was made by the 98 ANG 

Consolidated Base Personnel Officers (CBPO's) in 

punch cards format to Air Reserve Records Center 

(ARRC), where it was converted to magnetic tape 

files and updated twice monthly. The ANG Personnel Data System also continued data required 

for peacetime management purposes by the National 

Guard Bureau and the major gaining air command 

and would practically eliminate the preparation of 

manual reports at base level. 

Although the officer portion of the ANG Personnel Data System was begun during FY 63, the 

actual creation of data and interim implementation 

was accomplished during FY 1964. Beginning 1 

March through 30 June 1964, the Officer data cards 

were transmitted to the National Guard Bureau for 

editing and weekly up-date processing. This task 

was accomplished by the Base Comptroller, D.C. 

ANG, on 50-series punch card accounting equipment 

which enabled the National Guard Bureau to obtain 

usable products from the system at an earlier date. 

Preliminary edits were accomplished to increase the 

accuracy of the initial input data which will be converted to computer operation 1 July 1964. 

Pending Air National Guard final development 

and adoption of the Air Force System (PDS-A), 

plans were being formulated for the early implementation of an interim airman data system in order 

to provide needed information. 

Air Advisors 

On 30 June 1964, there were 244 officer advisors 

authorized and 242 assigned or selected to be assigned. 

A total of 54 advisors were replaced during this 

fiscal year. The quality of replacements nominated 

by the gaining commands was generally above average. 

MEDICAL ACTIVITIES 

The Air National Guard Medical Service continued to equip, train and organize medical units to 

meet support requirements of Air National Guard 

operations. The reorganization of the Aeromedical 

Transport Groups into Air Transport Groups affected 

the ANG medical structure. At theendof FY 1964, 

the ANG Medical Service consisted of: 

11 Tactical Hospitals 

79 Dispensaries 

7 Aeromedical Evacuation Squadrons 

24 Aeromedical Evacuation Flights 

Excellent progress was realized in manning the 

ANG medical units, but there were personnel shortages in some units. Every effort was made to 

fill these shortages; and although professional' personnel are traditionally short in supply, consistent 

improvement in personnel procurement has been 

shown. During the year, efforts to have nurses 

included in the tactical hospitals and tactical dispensaries were successful when three nurses were 

authorized for each by Headquarters, USAF. This 

materially improved the training and operational 

capability of these units. On 30 June 1964, ANG 

medical units were manned as follows: 

Authorized Assigned Percent 

Medical Corps 328 323 71 

Dental Corps 160 82 51 

Medical Service Corps . . . 210 140 66 

Nurse Corps 649 313 48 

Veterinary Corps 24 11 46 

Training of medical personnel continued throughout the year. The course in Aerospace Medicine 

was attended by 24 physicians who were designated 

as flight medical officers. A total of 87 nurses 

were trained as flight nurses. 

To replace obsolete equipment and equipment 

lost during the Berlin crisis mobilization, funds 

were made available to the States to equip 7 Tactical 

Hospitals with Air Transportable Hospital Sets. Each 

set consists of a 36-bed hospital costing $69,000. 
Numerous dispensary sets for tactical dispensaries 

were procured. When delivery is completed in 

FY 1965, the equipping program for ANG medical 

units will be completed. 

An over-all evaluation of the ANG medical 

program shows that: 

• All medical units are well equipped and are 

combat ready. 

• There were no unusual problems in the area 

of aerospace medicine. 

• No outbreaks of communicable or infectious 

diseases occurred during the annual field training 

tours or unit training assemblies. 

• All aircrews and their accompanying personnel 

are medically qualified for immediate deployment 

through periodic medical examinations and a continuing immunization program. 

• The caliber of medical care rendered is superior. 

OPERATIONS 

AND 

TRAINING 

Organization 

On 30 June 1964, the Air National Guard had 

706 federally recognized units. Flying units were 

organized into 24 wings, 90 groups, and 92 mission 

squadrons. There was an increase of 7 groups 

due to conversion of seven aeromedical transport 

squadrons (augmented) to the air transport group 

structure. The number of non-flying units remained 

at 106. To support the Air National Guard force 

structure, there were 95,182 military manpower spaces 

allocated to the major commands.

Reorganization 

During fiscal year 1964, reorganization of the 

Air National Guard continued in support of mission 

changes and to attain a high level of operational 

readiness. Three groups had a gaining command 

change from ADC to TAC. One group assumed a 

dual mission of air defense/tactical fighter. 

In October 1963, seven aeromedical transport 

squadrons and two aeromedical transport groups were 

reorganized from a continental aeromedical evacuation mission to the global air transport mission 

of cargo transport, troop transport and aeromedical 

evacuation. The Aeromedical Group at Brooklyn, 

N.Y., was converted to an Air Transport Wing. The 

TAC Fighter Wing at Niagara, N.Y., was inactivated to allow for the establishment of this new 

wing. The 112th Air Defense Wing at Pittsburgh, 

Pa., was inactivated and the new 171st Air Transport Wing was activated. 

In July 1963, four troop carrier groups were 

redesignated to Air Commando Groups. In October

1963, all ANG Air Transport units were converted 

to the dual deputy concept of command which afforded greater flexibility and selectivity in the manner 

in which ANG units may be called to active duty. 

This reorganization included 7 Air Transport Wings 

and 15 Air Transport Groups.

Flying Hours 

D uring FY 64, the Air National Guard flew 

a total of 433,458 flying hours, of which 272,655 

were flown in jet aircraft, 160,803 in reciprocating 

aircraft. Although the pilot strength was lower than 

programmed, these hours represented 98.74 percent 

of the ANG programmed flying hours. Maximum 

effort was made in accelerating the aircrew combat 

readiness training while accomplishing dual utilization of the training hours by performing special 

airlift, deployment, and joint maneuver exercises.

Flying Safety 

The Air National Guard again lowered its aircraft accident rates as compared to previous years. 

The rate for fiscal year 1964 is 6.92 major aircraft 

accidents per 100,000 hours of flying. The rate for 

FY 63 was 8.52; FY 62 was 10.86, and for FY 61, 

12.66. 

The continued reduction in the ANG aircraft 

accident rate may be attributed to many things. A 

few of these are: the continued emphasis on professionalism by Hq USAF, the National Guard 

Bureau, the various State Adjutants General and the 

unit commanders; improvements to airfield operating 

conditions such as runway extensions and repair; 

installation of jet aircraft arresting gear; expansion 

of aircraft parking ramps; and providing more 

adequate lighting. 

The introduction of additional century series 

jet fighter aircraft into the Air National Guard 

inventory presented a continuingchallenge to maintain 

the downward accident trend. This challenge has 

been met in the past and will continue to be met in 

the future. The net result of these accomplishments 

was an increased combat capability at the expenditure of fewer dollars.

Training 

Training for ANG units and personnel was 

planned to increase combat capability, and to align 

more closely the ANG training objectives to the 

established requirements of the regular forces. As 

new and more complex equipment became available, 

the ANG force structure and weapon systems underwent changes. There were corresponding increases 

in the training requirements. During the past year 

the requirements for formal, individual training increased 153 percent but support of these requirements increased only 13 percent. 

To increase the combat capability of all ANG 

units, the ADC alert and unit weapons training was 

continued; TAC exercises in unit deployment successfully showed the feasibility of such movements; 

and MATS continued airlifts for the Army and Air 

National Guard as well as for the USAF, US 

Army, and Department of Defense. 

Under the ANG year-round field training 

program, members of a unit could extend their 

15-day active duty tour, with the permission of the 

commander, over several periods of the year rather 

than 15 consecutive days. For example, a MATS 

crew could perform an eight-day tour for an overseas flight, and at a later date, return for duty to 

complete the 15 days. 

Programming of supplemental training funds over 

the past several years provided the wherewithal for 

60 
ANG units to meet modern tactical training techniques. Initially developed to meet the needs of 

units who must deploy to complete quarterly weapons 

training, supplemental training is now being applied 

to all aspects of mobility and combat operations, 

and is now showing a progressively greater impact 

on unit readiness.

Air Defense Command Units 

On 30 June 1964, there were 150 ANG units 

with the gaining command of Air Defense Command 

(ADC). Flying units assigned to ADC consisted 

of 6 wings, 24 groups, and 24 fighter interceptor 

squadrons. There were 3,035 officers and 22,796 

airmen authorized and 2,452 officers and 17,328 

airmen assigned to these units. 

During FY 64, two groups — in Albuquerque, New 

Mexico; and Knoxville, Tennessee —converted aircraft 

and changed gaining command from ADC to TAC. 

Additionally, one Group, in Puerto Rico, changed 

gaining command from ADC to TAC, with no 

aircraft change involved, and the unit still maintains an active air defense reaction capability for 

the Antilles Defense Command. The 140th AC&W 

Squadron, Puerto Rico, was reorganized to provide 

a satellite AC&W installation at Ramey AFB. 

The ANG Alert Program conprised a substantial 

part of the Air Defense Command's total capability. 

ANG units in this alert force, located across the 

United States and Puerto Rico and Hawaii, were not 

primarily training, but serving in direct active duty 

support of the Air Force. Several units performed 

their alert missions with aircraft capable of delivering nuclear weapons. 

The ADC Alert Program continued with 24 

squadrons participating. All of these units performed 

alert coverage on a 24-hour schedule with 2 aircraft 

on 5-minute and 2 on 1-hour status. The one exception was Puerto Rico which performed 14-hour 

alert, 7 days a week with 2 aircraft on 5-minute 

and 2 aircraft on 1-hour status. The 140th AC&W 

Squadron, Puerto Rico, was also operating on 14-

hour a day duty, 7 days a week. The Hawaiian 

ANG provided the sole Air Defense coverage for 

the islands and operated around the clock. 

In FY 64, 18,388 scrambles were made and 

37,626 intercepts were accomplished in support of the 

Air Defense Command. The alert aircraft included 

the F-89J, F-102A, and F-86L type aircraft. 

All fighter interceptor units were on the yearround field training plan. 

Since September 1962, the ADC has not deployed 

interceptor aircraft to the Weapons Center at Tyndall 

AF Base, Florida, for regular weapons firing practice. However, 5 ANG fighter interceptor units 

participated in various types of weapons firing and 

other test programs through using ANG MATS 

airlift of unit personnel to and from Tyndall and 

Holloman AF Bases. 

During FY 1964, one of the most outstanding 

accomplishments of Air National Guard ADC units 

was winning at the annual world wide fighter weapons 

meet conducted by the USAF and known as William 

Tell. Held during October 1963 at Tyhdall Air 

Force Base, this meet brought together the finest 

air defense jet fighter teams that could be assembled 

by the participating units. The 146th Fighter Interceptor Group, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, supported by 

members from the aircraft control and warning units 

of Colorado, Utah, and Puerto Rico, represented 

the Air National Guard in the meet. This team won 

top honors in the F-102 category with a score of 

8,427 out of a possible 9,000.

ADC 

For the first time an Air National Guard unit 

not on active duty was selected to receive the Air 

Force Outstanding Unit Award. This high honor 

was earned by the 112th Air Defense Wing at 

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The 146th Fighter Interceptor Group, winner at the William Tell meet, is a 

part of the 112th Wing. 

Military Air Transport Units 

On 30 June 1964, the transport force of the 

Air National Guard was composed of seven wings, 

24 groups, and 25 flying squadrons. This represented 

an increase of nine squadrons and groups and two 

wing headquarters over the total on 30 June 1963. 

This increase was the result of the conversion, in 

February 1964, of nine squadrons and groups and 

two wing headquarters over the total on 30 June 

1963. This increase was the result of the conversion, in February 1964, of nine aeromedical units 

to the air transport mission. The gaining command 

for these units is MATS. 

Within the past three years, ANG transport 

units have progressed from primarily a training status 

to a ready and global force which almost daily 

fulfills operational exercise missions. The transport 

force has assumed its position on the active team 

as a part of the force in being. 

Training programs were in effect to maintain 

this position attained by the transport units. During 

FY 64, maximum use was made of the training devices and instructor teams. All units were under the 

year-round field training program. Overwater training flights to the European and Pacific areas under 

the operational control of MATS continued. 

During FY 1964, ANG transport aircraft and 

crews conducted 1,018 training flights over established 

MATS routes outside of the Continental United 

States (CONUS). In conjunction with these training flights, approximately 3,658.3 tons of cargo were 

airlifted to overseas points and approximately 2,191.6 

tons of cargo brought to the United States on return 

flights. 

These same units airlifted more than 17,000 Army 

and Air National Guard personnel to annual field 

training sites within the CONUS, Alaska, Hawaii, 

and Puerto Rico, plus 2,080 tons of cargo and 

equipment to support these training operations. 

On numerous occasions at the request of agencies 

of the Government. ANG transport units airlifted 

various items of a charitable nature, medical supplies and equipment, clothing, etc., to underprivileged 

nations. These airlifts produced a dual benefit from 

the training dollar spent. It is in this area that a 

potential exists to provide even greater support to 

the active Air Force and a considerable saving in 

the defense dollar, but it is not the only area in 

which these efforts are being made. The transport 

units are ready and eager to assist in achieving the 

maximum return on the defense dollar. 

During FY 1964, ANG transport units supported 

many training exercises. Major exercises included: 

DESERT STRIKE, supported by all seven transport 

wings; GUARDLIFT I, airlift of units to annual 

field training sites; SWIFT STRIKE III, transported 

troops and cargo; TAC deployment; Minuteman 

Alpha, airlift support of the operation; Abbey Tower, 

logistical support. The support that the seven transport wings gave the TAC deployment (see TAC 

section) stressed the importance of the versatile and 

flexible nature of the transport units. 

The Talking Bird from the 137th Air Transport 

Group, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, an airborne and/ 

or ground command post or communications center, 

was used for the first time in support of a National 

Guard movement. Its quick response and communication ability greatly assisted in the movement of 2,100 

Guardsmen of the 1st Brigade, 47th Infantry, Minnesota Army National Guard to Fort Richardson, 

Alaska, and return. 

Tactical Air Command Units 

On 30 June 1964, units of the Air National 

Guard with TAC as gaining command were organized 

as follows: 

Type Wings Groups Squadrons 

Tactical Fighter 7 23* 23* 

Tactical Reconnaissance 3 11 11 

Air Refueling 1 4 4 

Air Commando 4 4 

TOTAL 11 42 42 

•Two*?) Tactical Fighter units were equipped with RF84F aircraft but continued TAC 

fighter training and mission pending availability of F84F aircraft. 

62 
During FY 64, the gaining command of 3 ANG 

groups changed from ADC to TAC. Of the 92 ANG 

flying squadrons, 42 had TAC as the gaining command at the end of the fiscal year. 

In July 1963, four ANG Troop Carrier Groups 

(129th, 130th, 135th and 143d) were redesignated 

to Air Commando Groups. The units made magnificent strides toward assuming their new mission. 

Unit training standards, training programs, and operational readiness criteria were developed in close 

coordination with TAC and Special Air Warfare 

Center (SAWC) and were under Air Staff consideration at the end of the fiscal year. The units attained 

acceptable levels of readiness and conducted joint 

training operations with selected Army Special Forces 

units. They participated in SAWC demonstrations 

at Eglin AFB, which were extremely important in 

indoctrinating all levels of command on the capability 

and use of Air Commando units. 

Implementation of the same training standards, 

criteria, and methods as used by the active Air 

Force, standardization program, and deployment 

programs fostered the growth of ANG tactical combat 

readiness beyond that expected of any reserve force. 

ANG tactical units began to pass operational readiness inspections based upon the same criteria and 

standards of the active Air Force units. The transition period between reporting for active duty and 

actual combat traditionally expected of reserve forces 

was reduced. 

To attain and maintain proficiency in weapons 

delivery, tactical fighter units conducted training at 

field training sites and Air Force Bases. Usually conducted on weekends, these exercises were for air-toair and air-to-ground weapons employment and were 

performed in accordance with the techniques and 

tactics developed by the Tactical Air Command. 

Heavy emphasis was placed upon the standardization program for operations and training, and aircrews. This program resulted in the flexible use of 

ANG resources. A very significant achievement was 

made possible by application of standard flight operation procedures among all ANG units of like aircraft. In DESERT STRIKE, a Joint Chiefs of 

Staff exercise, the ANG was requested to substitute for units called off to cover Viet-Nam. Three 

provisional ANG units were formed from the resources of 16 separate ANG units. Drawn from 

every corner of the United States and Puerto Rico, 

these men and fighter planes formed an efficient working team and were commended highly for their 

outstanding performance. 

ANG tactical units were rapidly obtaining the 

unit deployment capability of the active Air Force 

units. These deployments represented a joint effort 

of many ANG units. Quarterly weapons training 

was scheduled in conjunction with unit deployment 

training exercises. This required new concepts and 

operational procedures to be adopted in ANG tactical 

weapons deployment training programs. Unit commanders generated creative thinking in the realignment of unit training assemblies, approved deployment 

training, active duty mandays, and field training mandays in such a manner that long range deployment 

exercises were feasible within the time Air Guardsmen could devote to such training and within funds 

available, Air tankers, transports, and the deploying 

tactical units, all from different States, combined into 

a smooth working team. 

While at their destination during each of these 

deployments, the staging ANG units teamed up with 

the local Air Force, Navy, Army or National Guard 

units to complete a tactical training exercise. 

Exercises and Joint Maneuvers 

Examples of TAC deployment exercises were: 

Minuteman Alpha. For the first time, Air National Guard jets performed in a long-range nonstop 

deployment using full aerial refueling and airlift 

resources. On 30 August 1963, the 117th Tactical 

Reconnaissance Wing deployed twelve RF-84's on 

a 3,500 mile nonstop flight from Birmingham, Alabama, to Elmendorf AFB, Alaska. Pilots partici63 
pating were from squadrons of the Wing in Alabama, 

Mississippi, and Arkansas. While in Alaska, the 

RF-84's performed high priority photo missions for 

the Alaskan Air Command. During the operation, 

the Air Guardsmen flew 54 sorties, in more than 300 

hours, maintaining a near perfect aircraft in-commission rate and producing 3,200 photos of 251 subjects, 

On the trip to and from Alaska, Air Guard tankers 

refueled the RF-84's in-flight. These tankers came 

from the 126th Air Refueling Group, Chicago, Illinois; 

160th Air Refueling Group, Clinton County Airport, Ohio; and the 128th Refueling Group, Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Airlift support of the operation came from the 157th Air Transport Group, 

Grenier Field, New Hampshire, flying C-97's 

Abbey Tower. On 29 November 1963, the 140th 

Tactical Fighter Wing, Colorado, deployed a provisional task force of 12 F-lOOC's from the 140th 

Tactical Fighter Group, and 8 RF-84's from the 

186th Tactical Reconnaissance Group, Meridian, Mississippi, to Puerto Rico. All 20 aircraft flew nonstop from home station to Roosevelt Roads Naval 

Station, Puerto Rico, and were refueled in the air 

by ANG tankers. Logistical support was received 

from ANG C-97's. During their four-day stay in 

Puerto Rico, they participated in exercises with the 

Puerto Rican National Guard. The photo reconnaissance aircraft performed aerial reconnaissance 

mission for the Strategic Air Command, Puerto 

Rican Air National Guard, and the Navy. The 

return trip to home station was also nonstop. 

Cane Cutler. This was a nonstop deployment 

from Andrews AFB, Maryland, to Ramey AFB, 

Puerto Rico, on 22 November 1963. Twelve F-100's 

from the 113th Tactical Fighter Wing, District of 

Columbia, teamed up with six F-100's from the 131st 

Tactical Fighter Wing, Missouri. There were two air 

refuelings on the deployment by ANG tankers, and 

two refuelings on the return trip. The exercise 

was accomplished without incident. 

Shockwave. Shockwave changed from a routine 

Air Guard nonstop overwater deployment to a recordsetting feat on 3 May 1964, when 12 Ohio ANG 

R-84F*s were refueled by KC-97's of the 126th 

Air Refueling Wing, Illinois, in just 15 minutes, 20 

seconds while covering only 51 nautical miles. The 

refueling generally takes an average of 90 miles. 

The R-84's along with 11 other Ohio ANG R-84's 

were returning from Puerto Rico where they had 

flown 58 gunnery missions at Ramey Air Base. 

The TAC Command Post monitoring the deployment 

radioed the unit commander that they had never 

seen 12 aircraft refueled so quickly. 

Examples of Air National Guard participation in 

Joint maneuvers were: 

SWIFT STRIKE III Air National Guard 

participation in this joint maneuver in August 1963 

included 128 jet fighters, tactical reconnaissance and 

amphibious aircraft. ANG transport aircraft 

(r6C-97'sand 2C-121's) werecalled upon to support 

the operation with 48 sorties a day between 5 August 

and 10 August. The Air Guard transport units, 

from 10 States, operated from Smyrna AFB, 

Tennessee, transporting troops, cargo, and vehicular 

cargo. 

DESERT STRIKE. In May 1964, National 

Guard units from 12 States, the District of Columbia, 

and Puerto Rico participated in this joint maneuver.

COMMUNICATIONS -

64 
FY 1964 has been a year of steady progress 

for the Communications-Electronics units of the 

Air National Guard. No major mission changes 

have occurred so that each unit has been able to 

devote the maximum amount of time to training. 

Operational indexes have risen steadily and the 

state of equipping is at the highest levels ever. 

Training 

241st GEEIA Sq. Term ANG, train with regular 

AF technician 

Every effort was made to combine realistic training 

with useful work in pressing toward full operational 

effectiveness and maximum benefit from the training 

dollar spent. Fixed aircraft control and warning 

(AC&W) squadrons daily provide radar coverage 

as part of the nation's Air Defense System. Ground 

Electronics Engineering Installation Agency (GEEIA) 

and Communications Maintenance Squadrons have 

earned acceptance of their potential by working on 

hundreds of Air Force schemes while in a training 

status. Two Tactical Control Groups provided 

tactical air control support for Exercise DESERT 

STRIKE. Mobile communications squadrons 

operated tower and communications equipment for 

the annual field training of flying units. Throughout 

the year, the 162d Communications Group operated 

the deployed FM communications network tying 

together all ANG bases in California.This communications system reached peak circuit availability during 

June when the system performed at better than 

95 percent effectiveness. 

The two ANG mobile communications squadrons 

and their nine attached flights have a mission to 

operate and maintain navigational aids(NAVAIDS), 

air traffic control facilities, and point-to-point radio 

communications wherever required by Air Force 

Communication Service (AFCS) in times of war 

or national emergencies. This emergency mission 

support (EMS) is designed to provide mobile 

communications to guarantee support to Air Force 

flexibility and mobility. 

Annual field training for ANG mobile communications units was with ANG flying units at the permanent field training sites at Volk Field, Wisconsin, 

and Phelps-Collins ANG Base, Michigan. These EMS 

units provided the communications and air traffic 

control support for the entire field training period at 

the above bases. Communications support at these 

two locations that would normally have to be provided 

by the AFCS active forces was furnished by pooling 

equipment assigned to the 11 EMS units with 

selected navigational aids and communications sets 

to be used in turn by units. This approach to 

training provided a deployment exercise to stress, 

unit mobility training in all functional areas and 

offered live microphone air traffic control experience 

for the ANG tower and GCA controllers. In 

the past, this experience has been lacking and training 

programs were unsatisfactory for proficiency levels 

to be attained. This breakthrough in the area of 

traffic controlling by Air Reserve Forces is highly 

significant. Refinement of the emergency mission 

support forces is high on the agenda of action items 

for FY 1965, and expectations are for expanded 

capability in this area in a relatively short time. 

The 280th Communications Squadron (Special), 

training at Maxwell Air Force Base, Alabama, 

is now a well-trained communications center with an 

operating capability available to AFCS for emergency 

employment. Year round field training concepts permit 

intensive training of small groups of communicators in 

facilities of the active forces. This squadron also 

participates in frequent "no notice" exercises to 

train the unit for operation in extreme emergency 

conditions. 

The four ANG communications groups are 

trained to provide a highly mobile radio communications capability for tactical use or to expand or 

augment AFCS assigned segments of the Defense 

Communications System (DCS). During the annual 

field training of these units, two such mobile radio 

networks were installed and operated. During 

6 5 
13-27 June 1963, the 251st and the 253d Communications Groups exercised together; and during the 

period 17-31 August 1963, the 162d and the 252d 

Communications Groups joined in an exercise. Each 

exercise was a tactical deployment to several States 

to install area communications networks. The 

communications systems provided were connected to 

the Defense Communications System (DCS) through 

the East and West Coast Gateway Stations as would 

be required during emergencies. Thousands of 

voice and teletype training messages were handled 

by the mobile systems during those exercises. Two 

benefitsjesulted from these exercises: the experience 

gained from operation in the expanded mobile 

communications networks; and the demonstration of 

the unique and valuable capability inherent in these 

units. The challenge of the future is to assure 

that this "in-being" capability keeps pace with 

the rapidly changing technology of ground communications systems and the Air Force need to expand 

them rapidly during emergencies. 

216th GEE IA Sq. Calif ANG training 

The 15 Ground Electronics Engineering Installation Agency (GEEIA) Squadrons and the 2 

Communications Maintenance Squadrons train for a 

mobilization mission in the Air Force Logistics 

Command. The GEEIA units train on live communications and electronic (C&E) projects at Air Force 

bases during unit training assemblies and annual 

field training. The Communications Maintenance 

Squadrons perform work on Air Force equipment 

at depot level during their training periods. 

During FY 64, the ANG GEEIA Squadrons 

and Communications Maintenance Squadrons 

continued to train by working on live projects, 

installing and repairing Air Force facilities and 

equipment. This training was done at approximately 

75 USAF and ANG bases and sites. Savings 

accruing to the Air Force during FY 64 as a 

result of this type of training should approximate 

the $750,000 savings of FY 63. 

During fiscal year 1964, the two tactical control 

groups (152d, New York ANG and 157th, Missouri 

ANG) have increased their manning strength, 

equipping levels, and operational readiness considerably. The two groups comprising 16 separate 

units supported two joint US Strike Command 

(STRICOM) exercises. Each group provided 

complete tactical control systems including the radars, 

interconnecting communications, and ground to air 

radio for SWIFT STRIKE III during July-August 

1963 with over 2,000 personnel, and for Exercise 

DESERT STRIKE during May 1964 with about 

1,700 personnel. Both exercises provided a wide 

spectrum of problems, operational concepts, and 

climatic extremes which insured realistic training 

and satisfied the urgent needs of the Commanderin-Chief, Air Force, Strike (CINCAFSTRIKE) and 

Commander-in-Chief, (CINCSTRIKE). Implementation of both exercises was due largely to the 

availability of these highly trained groups. 

Air Defense Support 

Fixed Aircraft Control and Warning (AC&W) 

Squadrons continued to support the air defense system. 

In Hawaii, two squadrons located at Koko Crater, 

Oahu and Kokee, Kauai have continued to provide 

full-time air defense facilities to the Commander, 

Pacific Air Force (PACAF); and a third squadron 

is in an air defense week-end training status, and 

also provides full-time operation of a radio relay 

site connecting the Kauai-Oahu air defense systems. 

Construction of the joint-use facilities (Hawaii Air 

National Guard and Federal Aviation Authority) 

is under way at Mt. Kaala and at Wheeler Air 

Force Base. A new and much improved search 

radar set (AN/FPS-7) will be installed which will 

provide radar data by microwave to both FAA and 

the Air Defense Direction Center. When completed 

in early 1964, the squadron at the Koko Crater 

site will move to the new complex. 

66 
The two fixed AC&W Squadrons located at 

Salt Lake City, Utah, and Greeley, Colorado, also 

provide a full-time air defense capability to Air 

Defense Command in the North American Air 

Defense Command (NORAD). These units are 

fulfilling both Ground Control Intercept (GCI) 

and Master Surveillance Station (MSS) missions. 

The latter mission is performed in conjunction with 

nearby FAA Air Route Traffic Control Centers. 

The AC&W Squadron in Puerto Rico operates 

an air defense facility on a 14-hour per day basis 

in support of the air defense mission of the Commander, Antilles Defense Command under the 

Commander-in-Chief, Atlantic (CINCLANT). In 

keeping with the increased emphasis on tactical 

mobility, this squadron, with its companion fighter 

squadron, has been transferred to TAC gaining 

command. In addition to satisfying urgent Air 

Force requirements at these locations and at much 

reduced costs, the, type of operation above provides 

the best possible training for ANG personnel. 

The Wellesley Doppler facility at Wellesley 

ANG Base, Massachusetts, operated by the 267th 

Communications Squadron, has continued on an 

on-call basis providing important data to the NORAD 

SPACETRACK System. 

Weather Units 

During FY 1964, the 31 Weather Flights were 

redesignated as mobile weather units and were being 

equipped with mobile equipment. The MA-1 forecasting kit and the AN/TMQ-1 observing kit will 

enable the flights to operate as mobile weather units 

in addition to their present fixed environment. 

Twenty-five weather flights provided complete weather 

support to either their collocated flying unit or 

other ANG flying organizations during annual field 

training exercises. Five weather flights duringannual 

field training augmented weather station personnel 

at active Air Force bases receiving training on the 

latest meteorological equipment. 

Cryptographic Services 

On-line cryptographic services for secure message 

traffic at ANG flying bases was approved and 

funded for FY 1965 by USAF. The NGB, working 

with AFCS, established a plan to implement this 

service. Action was taken to initiate on-line service 

in June 1964 with completion on or before 1 September 

1964. 

Control Towers 

Three ANG operated control towers at 

Martinsburg, West Virginia; Key Field, Mississippi; 

and Springfield, Ohio, were taken over by AFCS in 

November 1963. Firm plans are being made for 

FAA to assume operation of these locations during 

FY 1965. 

Equipment 

By the end of fiscal year 1964, the Air National 

Guard had been promised receipt of highly prized 

mobile emergency mission support equipment which 

was being released from the active Air Force 

inventory. Shortages of mobile tactical air navigation 

(TACAN) sets and mobile ground control approach 

(GCA) sets will soon be eliminated. With the 

AN/TRN-6 TACAN and AN/TPN-12 and AN/ 

CPN-4 GCA radar sets to be provided early inFY 1965, the 11 ANG mobile communications units 

will be in a strong position equipment-wise for the 

first time in their history. 

The long procurement cycle for the transportable 

communications centers (TRANSCOM) for the four 

communications squadrons (relay center) is finally 

coming to a close. The four TRANSCOM sets 

procured for the ANG are being accepted for the 

Guard by the Air Force during June and July 1964. 

These sets provide a long-haul single side band 

capability for teletype and voice communications in 

each communications groups. They will be the focus 

of system training in the communications groups 

in the future. 

Modification kits for 100 sets of ANG high 

frequency communications equipment were delivered 

during the year. The modification equipment, 

AN/GRC-129, will permit single side band operation. 

The resulting effective increase in power of more 

than 16 times will permit an increase in the range 

of communication from a few hundred miles to 

well over 2,000 miles. Point-to-point operation of 

this equipment over these greater distances will 

eliminate the requirement for many of the intermediate 

relay stations that were necessary in the past. 

Equipment was authorized for the C-121 transport 

units converting from aeromedical missions to air 

6 
transport missions for the establishment of an 

Airlift Command Post (ACP), formerly called 

Transport Control Centers. The aeromedical units 

were not previously authorized an ACP function. 

Communications equipment and intrusion alarm 

systems were authorized to those ADC units programmed for nuclear weapons capability. Equipment was provided to those units scheduled to phase 

into the mission in fiscal years 1964 and 1965. 

ANG flying bases were authorized portable 

VHF/FM radio sets (Walkie-Talkies) for base security 

and nuclear security functions. Units were authorized 

to purchase this equipment locally. 

High frequency single side band (HFSSB) radio 

equipment consisting of the versatile KWM-2A/30L1 

portable-mobile-fixed components was authorized 

for all ANG flying squadrons having a TAC or 

MATS mission. Equipment requirements for 107 

sets for the ANG were included in an Air Force 

FY 64 buy program. 

SYSTEMS AND LOGISTICS 

Supply and Services 

During FY 1964, the Air National Guard 

attained a high equipment level in support of the 

missions assigned. The fine support given by 

Air Force Logistical Command (AFLC) and the 

efforts exerted by the major gaining commands 

contributed to this achievement. 

The Air National Guard (ANG) equipment 

program was being accomplished more objectively 

through the establishment and use of command 

equipment panels. The panel review concept 

enlisted the support of the gaining command concerned, the National Guard Bureau Command 

Equipment Management Office (CEMO), and base 

personnel in determining that ANG units were 

authorized the minimum essential equipment 

necessary and required for ANG assigned missions. 

All ANG base supply activities were completely 

mechanized through the application of punch card 

accounting machine (PCAM) procedures. All Air 

National Guard supplies and equipment were being 

accounted for by machine records. 

The ANG "Ready Now" posture was considerably enhanced through the development and use 

of mobility equipment allowances for ANG units 

assigned to Tactical Air Command (TAC). The 

application of these tailored allowance documents 

enabled each ANG tactical fighter and tactical reconnaissance unit to attain the projected equipment 

needs of its assigned mobilization mission. 

The war readiness material programs (WRM) 

of TAC, MATS, and ADC implemented at ANG 

tactical flying bases improved considerably in the 

past twelve months. WRM spares storage was 

accomplished at 90 percent of the ANG bases that 

participated in these programs. During the coming 

year upon completion of programmed aircraft conversions, the WRM spares storage program will be 

implemented at those bases not presently participating. 

During 1 January through 30 June 1964, the 

Supply and Services Branch, National Guard Bureau, 

effected redistribution action on a total of 2,043 

equipment units, valued at $2,438,955. 

Maintenance — Engineering 

The Maintenance Support Division was established in all ANG Base Supply to provide rapid 

supply support to maintenance activities. Supplies 

were delivered to maintenance points and adjustments 

were made to the air technician manning structure to 

provide this service. The Maintenance Support 

Division will be fully operational by end ol calendar 

year 1964. 

The F-89J corrosion control program, initiated 

in FY 1963, continued at Burlington, Vermont. 

During FY 1964, 71 aircraft were processed bringing 

the total under this program to 163. Originally 

programmed manhours were 1,500 per aircraft, but 

manhours expended were 650 per aircraft. 

The J-35 engine modernization program consisted 

of nine safety-of-flight modifications which will greatly 

reduce the flight safety deficiencies of the J-35 engine. 

68 
Modifications will be accomplished at a contractor 

facility, and delivery of the first modified engines 

is due in September. The program will cost approximately three million dollars. 

Cost accounting criteria on the F-102 inspect and 

repair as necessary (IRAN) program at Mobile, 

Alabama, caused concern and a closer evaluation 

of the program. The excessive costs of between 

$32,000 and $34,000 per aircraft would have reduced 

the number to be accomplished within available 

funds. Through a re-evaluation of costing criteria 

with Mobile Air Material Area (MOAM), the cost 

was reduced to approximately $23,000 per aircraft. 

The F-102A IRAN in Hawaii was accomplished 

by a contract field team. At the beginning of 

FY 64, this program was seriously behind schedule, at one point six weeks, and the cost per aircraft was prohibitive. The National Guard Bureau, 

Hawaii Air National Guard, the contractor, and 

the contracting offices all took steps toward reducing the inefficiencies in the program. By March, 

the program was back on schedule; in May, it was 

a week ahead of schedule; in June, the program 

was far enough ahead of schedule to input an additional aircraft in FY 1964. IRAN on 15 aircraft was accomplished during FY 64, and five 

more aircraft are scheduled for FY 65. This will 

complete IRAN on all Hawaii F-102 aircraft. 

Fourteen C-121C/G aircraft were processed 

through a contractor. Due to discrepancies discovered during inspection, the work package varied 

slightly on each aircraft. Since the contractor utilized 

in FY 1964 is going out of business, the program 

will continue in FY 1965 under a new contract 

and contractor. 

Project Highwire was not completed in FY 64 

as planned, because the contractor did not fulfill 

his contract. There are 14 F-lOOC's and 2 FlOOF's requiring continuation of this project in FY 

1965. 

To enable in-flight refueling of external tanks, 

20 F-lOOC's assigned to the 113th Tactical Fighter 

Wing, Andrews AFB, were equipped with modification (MOD) 1213 kits. This work was accomplished by a contract field team during May 

and June. If the MOD 1213 kits are available, 

the remainder of the fleet will be equipped in FY 

65. 

The requirement for T-33 aircraft was established at 132, and this number was processed through 

Project Dairywhip at Buckley ANG Base, Colorado. 

Work included installation of rocket propelled ejection seats, improved navigation equipment (TACAN), 

the large inverter, and inspection of cockpit pressurization and all control rod end bearings. The 

average manhours per aircraft were approximately 

950. 

During FY 1964, 120 K.C-97G aircraft were 

programmed for modification by a contractor to the 

cargo configuration. Major modifications included 

complete installation of .a galley, clam shell doors, 

and latrines. The IRAN of 48 C-97G aircraft 

was accomplished by another contractor. 

Illinois ANG—KC-97G 

On 19 March 1964, one KC-97G aircraft, assigned to the 126th Air Refueling Group, O'Hare 

International Airport, Illinois, was delivered to a 

contractor for jet augmentation modification. The 

outer wing tip panel, pylon assembly, and plumbing were removed from a KB-50 and installed on 

the KC-97G. The first item inspection was over 

and above engineering expectations. The engineering evaluation made by the 126th Air Refueling 

Group together with the air refueling of an F-4C, 

F-101, and F-105 aircraft was extremely beneficial 

in compiling data for the revision of the operators 

handbook. 

The first F-105B aircraft was delivered to the 

108th Tactical Fighter Group, McGuire AFB, New 

Jersey. These aircraft are being processed through 

Project Look Alike, Phase II, at Mobile, AMA, 

Alabama, before delivery to the Air National Guard. 

IRAN was accomplished by a contract field team 

69 
at ANG bases on 56 F-84F and 63 RF-84F aircraft. 

The program will be continued in FY 1965 with 

75 F-84F and 62 RF-84F aircraft programmed. 

A modification and maintenance program for 

depot level maintenance and corrosion control on 

the RB-57 aircraft was established. Re-skinning 

of the horizontal stabilizer alone required approximately 800 manhours. A RB-57B aircraft from 

Louisville, Kentucky, and a RB-57A aircraft from 

Hutchinson, Kansas, were sent to a contractor for 

prototyping on MOD 1191. This modification will 

give the aircraft night photo capability. 

The special maintenance program on the HU16B aircraft started in FY 63 was completed this 

year. 

Aircraft Inventory 

On 30 June 1964, there were 1,810 aircraft 

assigned to the Air National Guard. Compared 

to the 1,658 aircraft assigned to the ANG at the 

beginning of the fiscal year, there was an increase 

of 152 aircraft. This increase is attributed mostly 

to the return to the Air Guard of the F-84F aircraft which were diverted to Tactical Air Command 

units after the Berlin crisis call-up. Noted increases 

were also reflected in the F-100C and F-102A inventories; however, these increases were almost entirely offset by decreases in the F-86L and T-33A 

inventories. During FY 64, each Air Commando 

unit received from new production six U-10B aircraft. An aircraft was added to the Air National 

Guard inventory that will further enhance the"Ready 

Now" concept —the F-105. 

Alaska ANG-C123J. 

Hi-lift truck 

Vehicles 

During FY 1964, the Air National Guard received 32 commercial model spray de-icer trucks. 

These vehicles increase the capability of ANG units 

in the northern areas to be operationally ready at 

short notice. A sufficient quantity of hi-reach 

maintenance trucks were received to equip all 

C/KC-97 and C-121 organizations, with the remainder of requirement expected during FY 65. 

Receipt of 0-11A crash trucks continued, bringing 

the total to 58 on-hand with an additional 50 

expected during FY 65. 

CIVIL ENGINEERING 

During the fiscal year 1964, there were no major 

changes in installations utilized by the Air National 

Guard. Tactical and training missions were continued 

at small austere installations strategically located 

according to tactical requirements, population densities, joint utilization capacities and potentials, and 

other factors. During the year, extensive studies 

and surveys were made to determine if further economy 

could be realized by relocating approximately 25 

missions on other Department of Defense properties. 

These studies were not completed by the end of 

the fiscal year. On 30 June 1964, the Air National 

Guard operated 92 flying bases (including 5 permanent 

training sites) and 46 non-flying installations located 

throughout the 50 States, the District of Columbia 

and Puerto Rico. 

7(> 
Typical ANG Base 

Major Construction Program 

The FY 1964 Military Construction Program 

totalled $15.9 million of which approximately 75 

percent was under contract by 30 June 1964. Late 

passage of enabling legislation by the Congress was 

the main reason why the remainder was not obligated 

by the end of the fiscal year. New construction 

under this program consisted of airfield pavements, 

aircraft maintenance facilities, warehousing, fuel and 

ammunition storage facilities, headquarters, operations and training facilities, and miscellaneous facilities. 

There was some variance with the program as 

initially presented to the Congress. The changes, 

occasioned by changing mission requirements, were 

accomplished expeditiously as the needs became 

known. The medium used was streamlined Office 

of Secretary of Defense (OSD), Bureau of Budget 

(BOB), and Congressional Committee approvals 

which had been provided in the enabling legislation. 

Long range construction programming continued 

with more active participation by the States and the 

field organization. The FY 1965 Military Construction Program was adjusted several time. The most 

significant change was the result of an administrative budget restriction which reduced the program 

by approximately $5 million to $14 million. Enabling legislation for this construction program was 

nearing completion by the end of the year. 

Urgent and unforeseen construction projects were 

identified during the first part of the year. Projects 

in this category included engine buildup shop facilities, aerospace ground equipment shop and storage 

facilities, and warehousing facilities. To meet these 

requirements, it was proposed that special funds 

available for that purpose be used. There were 

delays in securing necessary OSD approvals, but by 

the end of the year, approvals had been obtained 

for projects estimated to cost almost $500,000. Accomplishment of these projects is anticipated during 

the first quarter of FY 1965. 

Minor Construction Program 

Minor construction (modification, repair and 

maintenance) requirements amounting to approximately $1.7 million were met with funds appropriated 

for this purpose (budget project 449). Because of 

limited funds, Working Panel and Facility Utilization Board reviews were made of all requirements 

submitted by the field organization. 

This resulted in program reduction to about 25 

percent of the total requirements submitted. Because of urgent operational requirements, several 

large airfield pavement repair and maintenance projects had to be accomplished within the limited project 

449 funds available. Repairs necessitated by natural 

disasters (e.g. Alaskan earthquake) and facility 

maintenance which could not be accomplished under 

service contracts for lack of sufficient service contract funds (budget project 448) were also accomplished within the total $1.7 million expenditure. 

Maintenance and Operations 

Normal maintenance of facilities and the operation of utility systems at ANG installations were 

accomplished, as in prior years, by means of service 

contracts and agreements between the Federal gov-. 

ernment and the several States, the District of 

Columbia and Puerto Rico. The cost sharing formula 

continued at 75 percent Federal/25 percent State 

participation. Total Federal cost was approximately 

$8.4 million. 

General 

Specific actions were taken during the year to 

effect increased management control over the civil 

engineering function. These included: 

a. Award of a contract for base master plans. 

b. Increased emphasis on project submittals, 

ANG Facilities Utilization Board reviews, and the 

integration of facility requirements into proper programs for accomplishment. 

c. More frequent field visits of NGB civil engineering staff personnel. 

d. Development of more adequate facility requirements data to meet various mission needs. OSD 

approvals were required to permit programming 

against increased requirements so recognized. 

e. Greater emphasis on civil engineering personnel training program. 

f. A more complete coordination of civil engineering programs with operational, personnel, and 

financial programs.
