FIELD ENGINEERING SECTION
  • During the graduation exercises, several awards were given. Keith Klinger was presented the "cup" and a letter for his outstanding performance and participation during initial FE training. Cloyce Davison, Bill Merritt and Rob Selover each received a cup in recognition of outstanding team performance for sharing an apartment together.
  • Awards were also presented to those patient, enduring, hard-working and sometimes boorish people, the FE Training Instructors. You see Curt's speech ran a little short so the time was filled recognizing the fine job being done by the instructors. In just one month, they managed to come up with a drastically changed, and significantly improved, FE course. In case you forgot, or didn't notice them when you were here, the instructors and their primary locations are:

    • Ray Jensen - 1st desk
    • Larry Perkins - 2nd desk
    • Ken McDaniel - (we haven't found a desk for him yet, but he's managing quite nicely on the floor.)
  • We must also make it known that there was going to be an Honorable Mention presentation at the luncheon. The Training Department decided that there were two other things that this class did very often and quite well. One was wrecking the rental cars and the other was blowing up 1204 scanner motor control boards. The race was so neck-and-neck that we gave them all the award: a PI and a good old bronx cheer.
ON THE MOVE
