ATSC Marks Anniversary Continued From Page One and aviation engineers in American industry carry on research, development, testing and modification on all AAF aircraft and This is aviation equipment. the development part of the command's job. To perform its duty of procurement, engineers at ATSC headquarters and those assigned to the various district headquarters, inspect, test and pur- ' chase all airplanes and aviation ' supplies used by the Army Air Forces. In 1944 approval was given to contracts totaling 22 billion dollars. The job of supply requires that ATSC stock over 600,000 items to meet AAF demands. Calls for special supplies come in regularly from overseas bases and are routed to ATSC depots in the United States. Sometimes it takes less than 20 minutes aft- cr the depot receives the order until the supplies are requisitioned, packed, rolled out to a truck and started on their way to a plane for rapid shipment abroad. .Damaged Planes Repaired In carrying out its maintenance assignment, ATSC depots put throughout the country have in long hours repairing combat-wear- y airand planes. Fighters and. bombers are given new propellers, new wings, wheels and radio equipment Engines are overhauled and tail assemblies rebuilt. During 1944 alone, 13,700 aircraft and 108,000 engines were overhauled at these installations. ATSC carries on its work wherever Army Air Forces are to be found. Maintenance crews salvage planes from the jungle, from swollen rivers and from hidden crevices in the mountains. ATSC supply bases keep spare parts rolling day and night to our forces all over the world. ATSC inspectors have gone everywhere, even overseas, and .to find if AAF planes equipment stand up as expected. Is Stressed -Safety Safety is an word in this command, both to .the military and civilian personnel. Good enough is never is good enough and nothing spared in the promotion of safety features on the planes as well as in the repair shops. A plane can be built in a matter cf days, ATSC believes, but it takes a lifetime to produce a flyer. Every effort is made to safeguard the lives of the flyers with the best aviation equipment In the world. Among the secondary duties performed by ATSC during its first year, was that of operating modification centers in which last minute changes are made on AAF planes so they will have the latest improvements. Also Along this line was the work of coordinating the rubber conser vation activities of all AAF commands and air forces, both in the United States and overseas. . . .

Al Stoler played the many familiar Christmas carols and the processional, "Adeate Fidelis," was sung by Jack Reese. Frank Hopkins, who gave the Christmas message, paid tribute to the Davis County Red Cross and its activities at Hill Field. It is to this chapter that the $25.00 which was contributed will be sent, so that next December Christmas cheer will be scattered far and wide among the service men remaining overseas. 5, Big Box ur Dormitory residents attention! to hear Hill Field's "Kate Smith" sin he. fore she leaves for her home in Denver?
