, local divisions.
Lieut.. Stinemetz highly lauded the
enlisted personnel for the manner II
which they responded to drill last Mon
day night, to start the heavy routine
of making preparations for the annua
inspection. Out of a total of los or
| the rolls, he said, 146 were in attend
ance at drill. Some of the absenteeS
are at sea aboard the battleship Wyom-
| ing, while others, 1t is indicated, were
prevented from attending because OF
the fact that they are employed al
night
Stinemetz said this indicated that
the members of the battalion gen.
orally are entering whole -heartedly into
the preparations for the annual tnspec-
ton of the organization by a board OF
Regular naval officers from the depart
ment on March 9.
During the week he sent a letter tC
every member of the organization
stresSing the importance of regular
drill attendance during the preparation
for the inspections, and reminding
them that every man owes it not only
to the battalion, but to his shipmates
to actively participate in the prepare
tions which are required to put the
battalion in the best shape for the in
spection. He pointed out that men not
attending drills, without a valid eX-
cuse, we're not showing the proper
spirit of cooperation and that such
men would be classed as undesirables
He said that the battalion had nc
place for such men and that means
would be taken to eliminate them
promptly.

reau says that it believes this to be the
only practical way of conducting organ
ization training
The aviation feet divisions and

training at Naval Reserve aviation bases
and naval air stations. Their training
consists of ground duty flying and care
and operation of aircraft.

reau explains, is divided into two sub
classes for administrative purposes: %
General service and 90 special service.

States Fleet and Naval Transportation
Service and other personnel for special
Service, usually on shore, as required
in the war organization. General serv-
ice officers and men may be associated
with fleet organizations as supernu-
meraries for the purpose of bringing the
Reserve crews or squadrons to full
strength.
