The committee discussed reserve involvement in the Tall Ships event to ensure that plans were on track, and how reservists would be informed of their roles and administrative considerations. CDR Brown stressed the need to mail packages to reservists in advance so that all knew where to report, what to wear, where they would be berthed, and so that reservists would be fully ready to perform their assigned tasks. The main topic was getting reservists onto Auxiliary harbor patrols during summer weekends. The conclusion was that the form helped ensure marks were an accurate reflection of reserve activity and accomplishments. See remarks above.
Steady progress continues.
This is going well, only new unit members need to complete this task. Increase the number of Pollution Investigator qualified reservists from three to nine. Increase the number of Command Duty Officer qualified reservists from one to two. We achieved this goal, but then the newly qualified CDO moved. CWO Antonaccio is pursuing this goal.
