I uniiJiiiy t LCDR JENE L LESLIE In order to keep track of our many projects and our many people, much time and effort is expended on paperwork. For The Word you turn to the directives and Plan of the Day issued through the Administration office. For printing paint chits and other necessary local forms and for mimeo- graphing The Word, there is the Print Shop. Each event of note in your military career is recorded in the Captain ' s or Personnel Office. Is it school information, naval training courses, or educa- tional advice and advancement you want? Then by all means the Training Office is your best bet. Courts-martial information and legal assistance and advice can readily be obtained from the Legal Office. for matters of the spirit and personal problems the Chaplain is always available.
