QM Supervises
Property Sales
World-wide supervision of the
disposal of Army obsolete supplies
and equipment has been assigned
to The Quartermaster General
the Department of the Army has
announced.
To carry out this new responsi
bility an Army Property Disposal
Center has been established in
Washington D. C. at the office of
The Quartermaster General.
The Center will develop po
licy and exercise staff and
technical direction of all Ar
my property and disposal acti
vities which will continue to
be conducted by individual
Army commands and Serv
ices.
Disposal actions are taken after
the serviceable or unserviceable
property has been screened to de-
trmine whether any military or
civilian dpartments of the Fed
eral Government have any need
for it.
Most property of this type
has become unserviceable and
uneconomically repairable for
military purposes through nor
mal use. The remainder has
become obsolete or unneeded
because of technological ad
vances in developing better
equipment and methods or be
cause of changes in the num
erical strength or missions of
the Army.
If no government requirement is
established for the property it
normally is offered for sale to the
general public. These sales have
yielded an annual return to the
government of approximately
$100000000.

New DA Circular
Explains Options
For Retirement
A simplified question and an
swer circular explaining elections
of options for personnel nearing
retirement has been issued by
Headquarters Department of the
Army.
The 22-page booklet is for all
servicemen nearing their 18th
year of service.
Elections of retirement pay op
tions that would care for members
of a servicemen's family while
drawing retirement pay was set
forth under the Uniformed Serv
ices Contingency Option Act of
1953.
Before completion of 18 years in
^-service fo^W-puiposes
not necessarily all on active duty
a man in the military can apply
for one or a combination of four
options which pay anriuties to his
survivors in case of death.
Option one is payable to the
widow and option two is for
the child or children.. Option
three is payable to the widow
but in case of her death or
re-marriage it would go to the
surviving child or children.
Option four is to be combined
if desired with any of the
other three.
Option four states that while a
USCOA member lives on his re
tirement pay deductions for de
pendents will cease to be taken
from his check should the bene
ficiary die or otherwise become
unqualified to receive his annuity.
The serviceman may select one
of three percentages of withdraw
al from his retired pay to go for
the annuities.
He may choose to have one-
half one-fourth or one-eighth
of his reduced retired pay to
go to a beneficiary of his
choice. Combinations of option
one and two with or without
option four may be made.
However the options chosen un
der such a combination cannot
exceed one-half of the member's
reduced retired pay.
Proceeds from USCOA and gov
ernment life insurance are not
counted as income when deter
mining the income limitation of a
pension under the Veterans Ad
ministration.
Once an option has been chosen
it may be modified or revoked
by the member with certain re
strictions. Changes of pay struc
ture after retirement will have no
effect on the elections.
Combining option four with any
of the other options costs about
10 percent more.
A person retired because of
physical handicap pays about
50 percent more but his tax
exemption based on physical
disability often off-sets the in
creased cost.
Future changes in USCOA in
clude a proposed extension of the
pre-selection time to the service
man's 25th or 28th year of service.
USCOA's option plans are avail
able to reservists as well as ac
tive duty personnel.
An annuity under option one ex
pires when the wife dies or re
marries. Option two. ceases when
the child reaches 18 years of age
or if the child marries before that
age. (If the child becomes incap
able of self-support by reason of
physical or mental defect before
his 18th birthday the annuity con
tinues as long as the child is in
capable of self support. Annuity
under option three stops when
there is no longer an eligible bene
ficiary. -V...

Iranian Officers
Observe 2d AD's
Training acilities
Two officers of the Imperial
Iranian Army visited Fort Hood
during the past two weeks to ob
serve basic and advanced indi
vidual training of the 2d Armored
Division.
Captain Esmail Atabaki and
Second Lieutenant Hassan Foul-
adi-Novid came to Fort Hood Aug
21 from Fort Knox Ky. where
they had completed the Officers
Communication Course and the
Armor Officers Company Course.
Their visit to. Fort Hood has not
been hindered by language prob
lems or lack of familiarity with
U.S. Army practices.
Both officers speak fluent Eng
lish in addition to several other
languages.
The organization of the Iran
ian Army is similar to that
of the U.S. Army. The major
difference is in size. The Im
perial Iranian Army consists
of six corps each of which has
two divisions.
The training methods and com
bat technicians all similar to those
of the U.S. Army and the Iranian
Army is equipped with American
weapons.
Two years of military training
is compulsary for young Iranians.
To become an officer the Iranian
attends military college for three
years and then completes his
training at a military university.
Training at the latter resembles
basic officers' courses in the U.S.
Army.
The escort of the Iranian of
ficers is First Lieutenant
Doyle W. West Jr. transporta
tion and platoon leader of
Headquarters and Headquar
ters Company 66th Armor 2d
Armored Division.
Captain Atabaki and Lieutenant
Fouladi-Novid will shortly return
to Iran.
During their tour of 2d Armored
Division ranges and training
areas the two Iranian officers
were the center of slight confu
sion when the stars on their shoul
ders caused them to be mistaken
at a glance lor generals.
