D. c.. Naval Reserve

The U. s. destroyer Abel p. Upshur,
training ship of the lst Battalion,
United States Naval Reserves, of the
District OF Columbia, returned to her
dock In the Washington Navy Yard
last sunday after an absence of more
than a month. During that period the
vessel was at the Norfolk, Va, Navy
YARD undergoing her annual overhaul
ing and drydocking preparatory to be-
ginning the annual cruises for tie
training OF the local Reservists.
Although 1t had been planned for the
Second Division Fleet to have its regu-
lar weekly drill aboard the vessel last
Monday, 1t was prevented from doing
so because the ship was taking aboard
fuel oil in preparation for the first
cruise which begins next Saturday. In
view OF this the gun crews of this divi-
sion will have only one drill night
aboard the destroyer before. that or
gani:ation starts for New England
waters for two weeks training with the
Atlantic Scouting Fleet of destroyerS.
AS next Friday Is holiday, the off,
GERS and men selected to make their
flrSt cruise will take their physical
examination on Thursday night. 1t is
usual to hold these examinations the
night before the cruise starts. Before
being allowed TO make a cruise each
member of the organization must pass
an examination to determine his fitness
TO enter active service for training.
During the period that the Upshur
has been away the gun crews have been
having drills with the gun-loading ma
chine In the armory but they have had
no practice at the guns which they
Will fire during target practice on the
second week of the voyage However,
as soon as the vessel leaves her dock
here 1t Is probable, it was said that
much attention will be given to the
training of the gun crews, and suffi-
Gent time will be allowed for them in
the daily drills. The Importance of re-
ceiving training for the full crews at
the guns Is stressed by the officers,
who point out that team work during
the firing helps the score because more
shots can be delivered in the shortest
period of time.
1t was said at the local Reserve head
quarters that no decision as yet has
been reached on the application OF
Lieut.. Harold Richardson, commander
OF the Headquarters Division and ex-
ecutive officer of the battalion, to take
the first cruise. AS no provision is made
for . separate cruising period for this
division, the officers and men who de-
sire to make the cruises either have
to be divided up with the three feet
division cruises or sent to other ships
of the Navy.
