fees paid by the government. In addi­tion, you will receive retainer pay at the rate of $600 a year for the four-year period and will be provided the neces­sary uniforms.

There are eight paths to commis­sioned status for Naval Reservists: Naval Reserve Officers' Training Corps (NROTC), U.S. Naval Academy, Re­serve Officer Candidate (ROC) pro­gram, Naval A viation Cadet (NavCad) program, Officer Candidate School (DeS), Aviation Officer Candidate (AOC) (Pilot Training) program, Naval Aviation Officer Candidate (NAOC) program, and the Integration program .

Following is a summary of the major

•

Iifications needed for each of these grams. You should bear in mind,

wever, that these requirements vary from time to time to meet the needs of the service. For complete, up-to-date information on these programs, check with your CO, information and educa­tion officer, the CO of your training center, your district commandant, the nearest Naval Air Reserve activity, or the nearest U.S. Navy Recruiting Sta­tion.

• Naval Reserve O ffi cers' Tra ining Corps If you are a male h.igh school senior

or graduate, 17 years of age but will not re.ach the age of 21 by 30 June ]963, and are on inactive duty, you may compete with civilians in the nationwide exami­nation for the Navy's college training program, the Regular NROTC program.

Your application must reach Science . Research Associates, Chicago, 111., by 16 November. The next examination will take place on 8 Dec 1962.

Appl ications are avai lable at high schools, colleges, universities, Navy Recruiting Stations, :md at your own Reserve organization.

After you have successfully passed the aptitude test, you will be inter­viewed. You will also undergo a com­plete physical examination. ]f you qua lify, your name will be submitted for final selection.

If you are selected for the program and accepted by one of the 52 colleges or universities at which an NROTC unit

~j>; located, you will begin your training

the fall of 1963. You will be ap­oted midshipman, USNR, and will

ave your tuition, books, and normal

You may, if you wish, accept employ­ment not conflicting with your NROTC and academic activities. As a matter of fact, an outside job may be necessary to help pay the cost of quarters, meals and clothing (you may wear your uni­form on cruises, during drill periods, and while engaged in other naval activi­ties).

While attending college, you may take any Course leading to a bache­lor'8-or higher--degree, with certain exceptions. You must satisfactorily complete one year of college mathema­tics and one year of college physics by the end of your sophomore year. You must also show proficiency in English­orally and in writing.

Addit.ional . information concerning academIc reqUJrements may be found in the NROTC Bulletin of Information.

Upon graduation, you must accept a commission in the Regular Navy or

Marine Corps, and must serve on active duty for not less than four years. If you resign your commission at a later date, you are obligated to accept a com-mission in the Naval or Marine Corps Reserve and may not resign your Re­serve commission before the sixth an­niversary of the date of acceptance of your original commission.

NROTC Contract Stlld~nts-Students in NROTC colleges are also eligible to ap­ply for enrollment as NROTC "con­tract" students. This is a non subsidized program, leading to a Reserve commis­sion. The contract program is not open to enlisted personnel on active duty.

Application should be made to the Professor of Naval Science at the NROTC college in which you are en­rolled or intend to enroll.

Students enrolled in either NROTC program wjJJ be deferred from induction under the Selective Service Act, pend­ing completion of their academic courses.

• U.S. Naval Academy Reservists on inactive duty have an

opportunity to win one of the 160 Naval Academy vacancies set aside for them each year. In addition, Reservists on active duty may compete for Academy appointments .

Winning an Academy appointment, however, takes some advance planning. As an example, to be eligible to enter next year's class, you must have been enrolled as a member of the Naval Re­serve before 1 July 1962. You must complete and submit your application (NavPers 2451, Revised, November 1956), via your commanding officer, to the Chief of Naval Personnel before 1 Oct 1962.

Scholastic exams for the Naval Acad­emy consist of tests of the College En. trance Examination Board. For admis­sion in 1963 Candidates may take the examinations administered in Dec 1962, Jan 1963 or Mar 1963.

To be eligible to apply, you must meet the following requirements (in addition to membership in the Naval Reserve as of 1 Ju ly of this year) ;

• Must have U .S. citizenship. • Must be not Jess than 17 years and

not more than 22 years of age on 1 July of the calendar year in which you enter the Academy.

• Must be unmarried and never have been married.

• Must be recommended by your com­manding officer.

Most of your questions concerning your candidacy for the Naval Academy will be answered in a booklet which is obtainable from your CO or district commandant. (If the booklet cannot be obtained from any other SOU1'ce, how­ever, you may write to the Chief of Naval Personnel (Attn; Pel's B66), Navy Department, Washington 25, D.C. The booklet is: Regulations Governing the Admission of Candidates in the U.S. Naval Academy as Midshipmen (Nav-Pers 15010). • Reserve Officer Candidate (ROC)

An officer's commission mal be yours if you enroll in the Navy s Reserve Officer Candidate (ROC) program, which is open to enlisted Reservists at­tending col1ege.

(College students who are not mem­bers of the Naval Reserve may also apply for enrollment in the ROC pro­gram; however, upon notification of selectio!lJ these candidates must enlist in the Naval Reserve.)

Each year a group of college students is selected for this training. If you are one of the fortunate few, you will attend two summer courses at Newport, R.I. These courses usually begin late in June and last approximately eight weeks.

Upon final selection for enrollment, you will be deferred from induction under Selective Service so long as you maintain satisfactory participation in Reserve training activities and meet other requirements for retention in the ROC program. Enrollment in this pro-­gram does not, however, exem{lt you from Selective Service registration.

ROC program members are not re­quired to carry any additional work in college as a result of the program; neither do they receive any financial support from the Navy during the school year. During both summer courses, however, ROCs receive the pay of the rate they hold in the Naval Re­serve. Pay starts when you leave for summer school and continues until your return. During the summer sessions, you receive meals and quarters at no cost to you.
