till It Alf Group taking GED tests in fire control shack. EDUCATION PROGRAM An outsider may well ask: How can a group of 'oiler' men - bound by the obligations of replenishment operations for the combat forces - have time for an edu- cation program? Even the men themselves mav find that a difficult question to answer. Actually, it is their desire to learn and to better themselves by learning that we have taken advantage of the education program on the MISS. . The MISPILLION has an enlisted complement of 285, of which 31 are taking USAFI high-school, vocational and college courses. Out of the 'I5 officers, 4 are presently enrolled inUSAFI college work. In the college correspon- dence studies offered by USAFI and corresponding col- leges in the United States, 2 men are at present actively enrolled. Through the USAFI work, a man may finish much of his college work, prepare for his civilian iob, and even fin- ish his high school work all for the tidy sum of two dol- lars. Not a bad investment, we think, of time and money. Taking part in the General Educational Development Test program aboard ship have been twenty-four men. The tests have included both the high school and the college tests. Upon successful completition of these tests, a man can receive a high school diploma, or even be qualified for a commission in the Navy. Even for the education program as it stands today, space for work is at a premium on board ship. The various ship's offices, the gunnery shocks, the CIC, meat cutting room, and even the fantail are used by MIS- PILLION personnel in their studies. 'IIO enlisted men are taking U.S. Naval correspondence courses for advancement in rating. Such courses are considered vitally important by our superiors in improv- ing shipboard efficiency, but this training too is supple- mented by USAFI courses in such subiects as refrigera- tion, marine navigation, English and mathematics. There is little publicity given the education program. No posters have been used-no one is twisting arms to pro- mote applications. It is simply the desire of the men to be better qualified to live in this the era of atoms, rock- ets and chlorophyll. 'T bf' Lt. Flitton, Education Officer
