Bepot removed the QEC from the re-
able engine, built-up a new serviceable engine and shipped to
SMAMA to replenish the back-up stock.
The system worked very well,
however, the orignial quantities proved inadequate due to the ex-
tenston of the operational phase.
Additional SA-16, RB-50 and..WB-50
engines were added during the operational phase.
(See figurel
All engines were cocooned by SMAMA prior to shipment.
).
This
provided good protection from the elements and enabled us to use
outside storage.
Two (2) suggested improvements to the program are:
That all engines be inspected by SMAMA for completeness and serviceability prior to cocconing and/or shipping, and that all engine forms
and records be attached outside of the cocooning.
This would permit
access to these documents without removal or opening of the cocooning.
Section D — Supply Operation in the EPG
Hq, JTF-SEVEN Administrative Order 1-58, Hq JTF-SEVEN, letter J-4/
400.3, 15 May 1958, Subject: Delineation of Supply and Service Support
in the EPG, and previous Administrative Orders contained vague termin-
ology concerning the logistical responsibilities of Task Group 7.2 in
support of Task Group 7.4.
During the build-up phase it became apparent
that Task Group 7.2 interpreted the JIF-SEVEN Administrative Order
differently from Task Group 7.4.
The referenced Hq, JTF-SEVEN letter
was published to clarify logistical responsibilities and to eliminate
duplicate stockage objectives and like facilities.
The provisions of
this letter are being gradually integrated beginning concurrently with
the roll-up phase.
The Task Group 7,2 Supply support for this operation was generally
satisfactory.
Our total requirements for hot lockers and Class "X"
clothing, however, were not filled until late in the exercise.
