All LD0 billets were reviewed with chan- ges recommended for 1,663 billets -- either converting current unrestricted line, re- stricted line or staff officer billets to LD0 billets or vice versa. The net result of these changes will be an increase of 532 LD0 billets -- 230 sea billets and 302 ashore. In addition, the number of LD0 com- mander billets will increase from 88 to 241, LD0 lieutenant commander billets will in- crease from 710 to 957 and, overall, the LD0 community will expand from 3,800 to 4,700. Revisions to the CW0 program will in- crease that community from 3,100 to 3,400 members and will put chief warrant officers in officer-in-charge billets at a number of shore activities. These changes are expected to improve sea-shore rotation in most fields and will establish career patterns for all LD0 and CW0 designators. The changes are not ex- pected to ease selection for LD0 or CW0 as the current level of accessions will accom- modate planned growth in both communities. These revisions, already underway, will af- fect all LD0 and CW0 communities. Birth announcements ATI Arthur L and Andrea F. Smith are the parents of a daughter, Kimberly Anne, born on June 30.

After 35 minutes the baton was passed to the sec- ond runner and the bus advanced another five miles. This became the grueling rou- tine for the next 49 hours. The scenery was spectacular... the run- ners were blessed with the sight of glac- iers, rivers, waterfalls and wildlife along the way. All felt this in itself made the effort worthwhile. Tired, cold and wet, the group arrived in Hangar 885 at 11 a.m. on July 4... the winds and the distance had taken their toll... at this point each runner had only one thought in mind... sleep! The runners included Ralph Stewart, N0CF; Donn LeValley, AIMD; Mark Mergard, AIMD; Paul Riede, IDF; Allen Child, Rock- ville; Lance Castle, 960th AWACS; Tom Cooke, Hofn; Steve Knutson, Hofn; and Melvin Ray- mond, William Holt, Daniel Dollar and Mike Howard, all from the Marine Barracks. Our lone civilian runner was Norma LeValley. The adventure would not have been pos- sible without the generous support of Gun- nar Gunnarson and Todd Swenson, our faith- ful bus drivers. A special note of thanks also goes to Ron Vega, the mechanic on duty at Hofn who fixed our flat tires. pest control..
