Hayward, Chief of Naval Operations, talks with Ensign Glenn Xing, Officer in Charge of Navy Broadcasting, Detachment Eight. Topics discussed during the interview included the 11.77* pay increase. "I t's a great step forward for military menbers," Admiral Hayward said. !,It shews that we are getting good support from Congress. The raise doesn't match the inflation rate, but it's a good start." About the im- plementation of the LDO flight program, Admiral Hayward said, "It was done because of a basic shortage of pilots, and because it's a good opportunity for enlisted menbers." Admiral Hayward concluded the interview by ex- plaining that the recruit rate is 100% due to high unemployment in the States, concern about the national security, patriotism, and improving military benefits.

Thanks to your readi- ness, professionalism and dedica- tion, we have once more responded quickly to meet the nation's needs in swiftly changing and threatening conditions. Our team is at the leading edge of the total intensi- fied effort to deter stubborn and reckless aggression and to protect the precarious peace." birthday Chief of Naval Operations, Admiral Thomas B. Hayward said, "Every member of the Navy-Marine Corps team can properly take pride in our achievements. Your dedica- tion and professionalism have car- ried the Navy and the Nation through times of world tension and uncer- tainty." Commander in Chief Atlantic Fleet, Admiral Harry D. Train, said, "The Navy has seen changes since its inception, but the basic qual- ities of commitment, dedication, and faith in the principles for which our Navy and our Nation stand remain constant.
