It is not only when someone yells "stormy weather," that the two Fort Pierce USO directors and their staffs go into action. It is anytime at all and everytime they can offer anything to the boys. A. F. Fugitt of the Indian River USO and Frank Brennan of the 10th Street USO, were among the first to offer their services for the recent hurricane emer­ gency. They dashed right aboard the station and began making plans befo1e many of us had any idea a storm was brewing. They saw to it, the very best they could, that your diet was not strictly "K" rations. This recent occurrence is merely one of the times that the USO was really on the ball. "A home away from home." is the motto of the organization they represent. The capable direc­ tors, their staffs and the groups of volunteer workers, have seen to it that the motto was fulfilled to the best of their abilities. The work has not been easy nor has it been slighted. It makes no difference if, you want to hear "Home on the Range," by Hank Bloets and his Rowdy Rangers, or if you require a hostess to cry with you as you relate some gruesome facts. It just makes no difference. They will fill the service thiat is re­ quired. It may be a long distance call to Kate, sandwiches, coffee, library books, writing facilities, motion pictures, band concert, jive and jam sessions, breakfasts small games, group singing, wien­ er roasts, arts and crafts, voice recordings, boxing, wrestling, tumbling, bingo, classical record­ ings or the Grand Ole Opry.

LCM Flotillas Folloiv Inland Waterway From Fort Pierce To Norfolk Bomb Disposal School fnds Training Program

The Navy Bomb Disposal School at American University, Washington, D. C., which has trained over a thousand Navy and Marine Corp!' officers and men, was decommisisoned on Septem­ ber 3(}. Many graduates of this school have b~en stationed at USNATB both as staff and trainee personnel of NCDU. Commander D1·aper L. Kauff­ man, original Officer in Charge of the Bomb Disposal School, was also the first OinC of ATB's De­ molition School. After completing his tour of duty on this station he was made Chief of Staff of Underwater De­ molition Teams in the Pacific Area. His successor as OinC of NCDU was Lt. W. F. Flynn, new­ ly transferred to the Base posi­ tion of OinC of Public Warks. The tie up between the two schools was close, according to Lt. Flynn. "All new information on mines, bombs, and bomb fuses was gathered in the field and transmitted to the Bomb Dispo­ sal School. This information was made into a series of books and used as texts for all demolition research work here on the base." Among the graduates of the Washington school here on the barn are Lt. W. R. Hilker, Jr., Lt. (jg) J. A. Fagerstedt, Lt. (jg) W. L. Rockwell, Lt. (jg) W. W. Scheid, Lt. (jg) D. M. Walker," Chief Bosun's R. S. Bradly, and Chief Gunner's Mate L. Voellin­ ger. Many other b.omb disposal personnel have taken the training here and been transferred. The Bomb Disposal 'School has been in operation since the be­ ginning of the war.
