A time savings in the hazard classification of the M55 Rocket saved $84,000. Another $14,000 resulted from a new method at sterilizing field test grids. The hazard classification savings is a (me time item, but the new grid sterilization technique will provide a $14,000 savings each year. A $42,000 savings has already been validated for the present (third) quarter by the Army Audit Agency. This savings comes from the area of telecommunications management. Neither this amount nor many other third quarter savings yet to be validated have been included in the total savings of FY 1966. If included, the telecommunications savings alone would boost Dugway to over 100 of the USATECOM goal. Savings percentages of established goals for each of DPGs major divisions are as follows: Commander 89 Sgt. Meggitt HQ Commandant Hospital MS Ac DSO . In a special message to all members of the Army, General Harold K. Johnson, Army Chief of Staff, has expressed his pride in the way the Army is meeting the challenge of Vietnam and has singled out two areas for continued special emphasis by all commanders. Concerning manpower, General Johnson stated that in order to meet the . . . demands of Vietnam with optimum effectiveness, we must insure that our trained manpower throughout the Army is used for the essential, and only the essential, requirements of combat readiness and .necessary maintenance of facilities. All other manpower requirements not contributing Ho these areas, he said, must be eliminated. General Johnson then called attention to the growing public awareness of the Army contributions and accomplishments in Vietnam: We should show our pride in our comrades. . . by doing our tasks with equal dili gence and by standing ready to acquit ourselves as they do. Concluding, he said, I would therefore expect all Army personnel to display the same sacrifice, sense of urgency, and responsiveness which are prevalent there.
