To Establish
AF. Flight
A minimum of 15 qualified Air
Force reservists Including officers
and airmen, are needed to estab-|
lish an Air Reserve Flight in Rusk,
according to Lt Col. James H. j
Hickerson, Commander of the Dal-
las Air Force Reserve unit. '
Col. Hickerson in a visit to Rusk
Tuesday stated that Air Force re-
servists in this area are now hav-
ing to travel to various other East
Texas cities for training. Flights
are established in Palestine, Jack-
sonville, Tyler, Nacogdoches, Luf-
kin. Crockett and Livingston.
He asks that all Air Force re-
servists write him, Dallas Air Re-
serve Center, 4429 N. Central Ex-
pressway, Dallas.
The object of a flight program
is to give individual training, rath-
er than as a unit, with classroom
type instruction. Types of courses
that would be available include
medical, intelligence, supply,
transportation, research and de-
velopment, etc. This instruction
would be given in two hour ses-
sions, three times per month.
Col. Hickerson pointed out that
the program offers 24 pay periods
per annum plus two weeks active
duty with pay, in addition to cer-
tain accrued retirement benefits
offered under the reserve retire-
ment law.
He also noted that former Navy
and Army men from specified
fields are eligible for this pro-
gram. The age requirement is 18
through 35 inclusive, with active
time served during the Korean
conflict and World War Et allow-
ed.
Col. Hickerson plans return vis-
its to Rusk if sufficient interest i9
shown, to establish the Flight.

ed under the supervision of Squad-
ron headquarters at Lufkin.
