The Aerograph Is Publislhed Quarterly in February, May, August, and November by the Naval Weather Service Association The first thing I would like to do is congratulate the Golf Coast Chapter for putting on an outstanding REUNION. Between June and I. we covered all the events offered and really enjoyed ourselves. I believe that is the first reunion any of those folks have worked on. If you've ever been in on doing a reunion, you know what a job it is. CONGRATULATIONS. For those who were concerned about the NWSA flag. Don Cruse says that Jim Stone has located it. I'm sorry Carmen couldn't make it to Biloxi, but Deacon did deliver her message. He should have a photo to prove it. Hope to see you in Jacksonville. Does anyone remember Bud Scott's retirement ceremony in Norfolk. I believe it was held at the First National Bank in Norfolk, complete with side boys - or was it moon boys. Someone said they thought that yours truly gave the infomous command, but I surely don't think I would forget something like that. It could have been AGCM Mel Harder or CDR Ron Harder (Harter "SP"). Drop your editor a line if you can fill us in on some of the details. LCDR Paul O. Grisham, USN RET, is trying to locate a copy of the "O'CONNERS" book that was used in "B" School. He is engaged in writing a compilation of objective forecasting rules and observations. He is in the "B" List. Please contact him if you can help him out. xAGI Clifford B. Campbell, USN REL, writes, "He was on USS Augusta 53 years ago when she left Plymouth Harbor to join what was to be the largest armada the world had ever seen and what turned out to be the longest GQ in the history of the USN." He is wondering if he is the only "NWSA MEMBER" that is a "D-Day" survivor. Cliff is thinking about writing an article for us, and I think he should. He is in the "B" List, FAX #: 919-393-3082, and his E-Mail address is printed in this issue. Publication Information: The Aerograph is publislhed quarterly in February, May, August, and November by the Naval Weather Service Association.

Feel free, however, to provide assistance if you think that I need it. To those of you who were not able to attend the Biloxi reunion, let me say that you really missed a good one. Hats off to the Gulf Coast Chapter. They accomplished something that was thought to be almost impossible. Our newest chapter has already hosted a reunion. Captain Schatzle, Captain Smith and all their committees put in a great deal of time and effort and did an excellent job. But 1 don't think they will want to sponsor another reunion in the near future. One of my first official duties was very enjoyable. It was the presentation of the NWSA awards to the CNMOC Sailors of the year. The Sea Sailor of the Year, AGI (AWJSW) David W. Cuthbert, USN, and his wife were our guests at the banquet. RADM Gaffney and I presented his award. Command Master Chief Coniglione accepter the award for the Shore Sailor of the Year, AGI (AW) Phyllis L. Mellinger who was deployed and not able to be with us. The recipients of the NWSA Scholarship awards were not able to make it to Biloxi. The awards, $2000.00 each, went to David J. Rhodes of St. Joseph, Missouri, who will major in Physics and Mary Alice Martin of Chilowee, Missouri, who will major in Aerospace Engineering. CDR Dave Holland accepted their awards from the incoming chairman of the Scholarship Committee, CDR Mo Gibbs, and will deliver them to the awardees. Scholarship awards appear to be a problem for the association. Our chapters are scattered throughout the country and their must be quite a few eligible candidates in those areas. I have a hard time finding a reason why only one candidate in ten was submitted by a chapter, the other nine were found by the Scholarship Committee. I think that there are two major problems that should be addressed. The first is the involvement of more chapters in the scholarship program and the second is to develop some new methods of increasing our scholarship fund. A final word on the ninety-eight reunion. CDR Jerry Stuck's committee has found a sight and the dates are firm. You will hear more about this from Jerry. Ray Hennessee President SHIPS AND SOULS Ships sail east, and Ships sail west, While the selfsame breezes blow. It's the set of the sails And not the gales That determines the way they go. Like the winds of the sea It's the way of Fate As we journey along thru life. It's the set of the soul That determines the goal, And not the calm or the strife. Anonymous NECROLOGY AGI John P. Watson USN RET Died August 1996 CDR Edward M. Albrecht, USN RET Died April 5, 1997 CDR Samuel "Bud" Selfridge, USN RET Died May 5, 1997 AGC Thomas F. Crews, USN RET Died May 8, 1997 CWO2 Robert D. Darden, USN RET Died May 29, 1997 LCDR Philip G. Kesel, USN RET Died June 23, 1997 FROM THE SECRETARY/TREASURER'S DESK I1 July 1997 In the past, the August issue was mailed to those whose dues expired 30 June just past. It was done as a courtesy to remind those in that group to renew. This will be the last year for that. The Constitution and Bylaws, Article VIII, Section 5, states that the Aerograph shall be distributed to members in good standing. This is defined in Article III, Section 4. We hilite the labels of those dues expire 30 June. This year, February was hilited in yellow; May, in red. Because of the statement in my article in the May issue, those in that group will receive the August issue this year and the label will again be highlighted in red. As of this date, we have 627 members. This includes 267 Life Members. There are 103 whose dues expired 30 June 1997. The E-mail list now has 139 member addresses plus the Nh'SA Home Page address and continues to grow. I am starting to print the e-mail address exactly as sent to me (uppercase/lowercase). When I returned home following the reunion, I had 73 pieces of mail waiting. Most of them were for renewals but also included seven more Life Member applications. For those of you who attended the meetings in Biloxi, these were all dated prior to the meetings when motion was made to increase Life Member dues. This is an amendment to the Constitution and Bylaws and requires approval by the general membership next year. This issue includes the minutes of the annual meetings and the revised Constitution and Bylaws. The latest revision deletes the Museum committee as a standing committee and adds the Editor of the Aerograph to the Executive board. It also deletes the Historian from that board. Now, a word about the increase in dues which was approved this year. In the past, we have been able to meet all normal operating expenses at the current dues rate. This did not include any allowance for the computer systems used by the Editor and the Secretary/Treasurer. Donations to the computer fund were very small. Both Bill and I depend on the computers for all of our work. Bill has been able to publish a great newsletter. I have been able to keep all of the addresses up to post office standards which qualifies us for the lowest possible bulk rates.

  • US Navy Supply Corps
    SEPTEMBER / OCTOBER 2017 SUPPOs Supplying the Fight A Message from the Chief of Supply Corps Recognizing the central importance of supply to establishing the Navy, President George Washington laid the foundation for the U.S. Navy Supply Corps in 1775 with the appointment of Tench Francis, a Philadelphia businessman, as the country’s first Purveyor of Public Supplies. Francis provided vital support to the first Navy ships, and started our tradition of selfless service. The Navy’s trusted providers of supplies, our supply officers (SUPPOs) keep operations running smoothly to support the mission. But they can’t do it alone. Working as a team with their skilled and experienced enlisted members, our SUPPOs are experts in our field who know inventory and financial management, food, retail, postal operations, and disbursing management. They are leaders and problem solvers who tackle complex challenges to implement effective and efficient management solutions, ensuring our customers’ needs are met. To be “Ready for Sea,” we must be professionally ready with the skills to operate in all our lines of operation. We also need character readiness, demonstrated by our integrity, accountabili- ty, initiative, and toughness. Lastly, we need to be individually ready; to be fit, healthy, and ready to meet the demands of the fight. This issue provides insights from our SUPPOs’ important work as they meet the unique needs of their various commands. Like the pursuers and paymasters who have gone before, SUPPOs uphold our rich heritage, and embrace their responsibilities to support the warfighter with a servant’s heart. Our SUPPO’s success depends on their character and competence, knowledge of the shore infrastructure, relationships with our professional civilian workforce, and on the enlisted members they lead and serve with.

Established in 1909 as the School of Morine Engineering, as a port of the U.S. Naval Academy, it answered the need for advanced education of naval officers. In 1912 the School of Marine Engineering became the Postgraduate Deportment of the Naval Academy, and the scope of its engineering curri­ cula was broadened to include Ordnance, Naval Construction, and Civil Engineering. After a suspension of operations during World War I, the Deportment resumed operations in 1919 in a separate building on the Naval Academy grounds. Two years later it was officially designated the United States Noval Postgraduate School with a further extension of its curricula scope and growth of its enrollment taking place in the years between the two World Wars. In 1927 the General Line Course was started within the Post­ graduate School to acquaint junior line officers with modern developments taking place in the Navy and to broaden their professional knowledge by means of integrated courses in naval science. World War 11 caused an increase in enrollment from about 125 to over 600 and a tremendous expansion of activity; in contrast to the period of suspension during World War I.
