The White Falcon - 14.01.1972, Side 12

New Year brings 7.2 percent pay raise
Armed Forces personnel received another pay
raise, 7.2 percent across the board, effective Jan.
1, and NATO base personnel should have noticed the
increase in today's paychecks.
The new raise comes on top of two other substan-
tial raises — one, a year agp that boosted all pay
7.9 percent; and a second Nov. 14, that totaled 2.4
billion dollars, raising first termers' pay drama-
tically. With these three raises, some military
pay has nearly doubled in the last year.
Sources at Disbursing remind NATO base personnel
that other recent monetary changes will be figured
into this paycheck (Jan. 15) along with the 7.2
percent raise. They are the reduction in Commuted
Rations and the new tax rates, now posted in the
lobby area at Disbursing.

Z-Gram 102____
CNO finds some commands
are abusing certain Z-Grams
The latest Z-Gram emphasizes everyone's responsibility to maintain
the Navy's standards of appearance and conduct.
Admiral Zumwalt stated in Z-Gram 102 of Dec. 22 that, "during
recent visits to ships and stations
indications that a few of our
people are interpreting some of
the initiatives we have intro-
duced as indicative of a permis-
sive Navy, allowing a relaxation
o f traditional standards o f
smartness and cleanliness."
The Admiral pointed out that
Z-Gram 57, which eliminated some
"Mickey Mouse" regulations, does
not eliminate saluting and other
military courtesies.
The standards for haircuts
throughout the Navy, I have seen
and beards set in Z-Gram 70 are
not being met by some personnel,
according to the Admiral.
"I have stressed the need to
place increased trust in each
individual and want to continue
and expand this recognition of
confidence in him," the Admiral
stated. "In return, each indiv-
idual must assume added respon-
sibilities for his appearance,
conduct and performance."
Navy’s 10 skill centers
prepare you for ‘cities’
If you're an E-3 or below,
ready to be separated soon under
the early release program, the
Navy has a new program designed
to help you prepare for civilian
life.
The program is centered around
ten skill centers. These centers
will provide vocational training,
counseling, educational assis-
tance and job referral assistance
to eligible Navy personnel.
The program is an extension of
the Transition Program, and
aimed at personnel who could
normally be provided with Tran3
tion services. Participation in-
the program is voluntary.
