Program and Financing (in thousands of dollars) This estimate includes funds for the pay of all military personnel on the retired lists of the Department of Defense. The estimate represents the consolidated requirements of the military departments for (a) payments to retired officers and enlisted personnel of the Army, Navy, Marine Corps and Air Force, (b) the retainer pay of regular enlisted personnel of the Fleet Reserve of the Navy and Fleet Marine Corps Reserve, and (c) survivors' benefits. The substantial gains to the retired rolls can be directly attributed to the greater number of individuals attaining eligibility for retirement after 20 or more years of active military service. The following tabulation shows the average number of personnel on the rolls during 1962 compared with the estimated numbers for 1963 and 1964. 1 Reimbursements from non-Federal sources are derived from sale of meals to officers from enlisted messes (10 U.S.C. 9621).

This appropriation provides for the day-to-day operations and activities of the Active Army with a beginning strength of 980,000 and ending strength of 975,000 and for training support of the Army Reserve. This includes the direct operational support of the Army forces deployed within the United States and overseas; the maintenance and operation of facilities used for the recruitment, training, administration, and logistical support of these forces; and the maintenance of a mobilization base for the expansion of Army forces in the event of emergencies or war. The Active Army Forces include Army units assigned to the unified and specified commands in Europe, the Pacific, the United States, and the Caribbean, air defense units in the United States, other combat forces, and the substantial support and training forces associated with combat units. The 1964 estimates continue emphasis on improvements in the Army's readiness for both limited and nonnuclear general war. Major changes include continuation of the reorganization of Army units; further expansion of training both through field and local exercises of units and increased training of individuals; and increased emphasis on combat developments and troop tests of new equipment and tactics. New units, including an experimental air assault division will be organized and trained to test and evaluate new concepts of air mobility. The continued reorganization will materially increase the flexibility, mobility, and firepower of the units reorganized. Other major changes in 1964 are: Following the 1963 funding pattern, estimates for family housing have been transferred to the Family housing management appropriation account of the Department of Defense; transfer of supply distribution functions to the Defense Supply Agency; and distribution to Training activities and Armywide activities of amounts previously reported under Joint projects, thereby eliminating this budget activity. In addition to direct training and support of the operating forces, funds are required for the logistics system, which procures, stores, distributes, and maintains material; for expenses of the departmental and other major headquarters; and for local support costs. This latter category includes local activities, headquarters and administration, essential welfare and recreational activities, maintenance and repair of facilities and equipment, and logistics services. This appropriation also provides for the expenses of administration and training of the Army Reserve Forces and for 6 months active duty training of Army Reserve and National Guard personnel at basic training centers, Army schools and with Army units. A supplemental appropriation for 1963 is anticipated for separate transmittal to provide funds to finance the additional costs resulting from the two Army National Guard divisions and supporting units, called to active duty in 1962, remaining on active duty for the first part of 1963; and legislation authorizing increases in military per diem. Obligations incurred during 1962 for support of the activated Army National Guard divisions and supporting units amounted to $119,074 thousand, $102,224 thousand of which was obligated under the authority provided by subsection (c) of section 612 of the 1962 Department of Defense Appropriation Act. 1. Operating forces.-This provides for the training and support of Army combat and combat support forces. These costs include the operation and maintenance of the installations where these units are stationed, and the operation and maintenance of the weapons, aircraft, vehicles and other equipment assigned to these units. In 1964 an increase is provided in the size of the Regular Army to organize, train, test, and evaluate new units, including the testing of the concept of an air assault division and other new air units. Emphasis will also be placed on realistic field training for all combat and combat support units, particularly those assigned to the Strike command. This unified command's program of large scale two-way maneuvers which pit combat units against each other will be expanded. The Army's special warfare units will be increased to help meet the growing importance of counterinsurgency operations in southeast Asia and other areas of the world. This program will also support the continued conversion of Army units to the new brigade structure, with its emphasis on increased mobility and firepower. 2. Training activities. This provides for individual training of officers and enlisted men as contrasted with combat unit training. Two broad categories are included: career training with emphasis on doctrine, strategy, and tactics; and special skill training in such fields as missile maintenance, aircraft mechanics, electronic equipment repair, financial management, languages, and the operation of complex and intricate weapons and equipment of the modern Army. Most of this individual training is conducted through the Army service schools and colleges which conduct resident courses of instruction for Army personnel, reserve forces trainees, personnel from other services, and foreign military personnel; prepare and administer extension courses and other nonresident training; and prepare Army training texts and publications. In addition, this activity finances the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, providing instruction for approximately 2,400 cadets annually for careers as Army officers. Necessary resources, previously budgeted under Joint projects, are included to support the National War College and the Industrial College of the Armed Services which prepare selected personnel of the Armed Forces and other Government agencies for the exercise of joint and combined high-level policy, command and staff functions and for the planning of national strategy. 3. Central supply activities. This program provides the supply support lifeline to the Army's combat forces by financing operation of the Army supply management and distribution system in peace and providing the necessary framework for the expansion of the procurement, production, and supply distribution system in war. The Army supply system manages and distributes a materiel inventory valued at over $12 billion. The Army supply system begins with procurement contracting for approximately $5 billion worth of supplies and equipment. This contracting is supported by contract administration, quality control, value engineering, specification management, and standardization of items within the Defense Department. The supply system moves the Army inventory in the materiel pipeline from procurement through its depots in the United States down to post supply agencies which supply the troop units. For the forces abroad the Army materiel moves from depots in the United States, through transportation terminal facilities, into supply depots overseas, and finally down to the ultimate consumersthe Army troop units. Materiel required on a priority basis is expedited through the pipeline directly to the using troop unit under a special handling and premium transportation fast-moving delivery system which bypasses the normal intervening stages in the pipeline. Thirty-seven depots in the United States and 45 depots overseas receive, account for, store, and guard against deterioration of the Army inventory while the supply flows through the materiel pipeline to the elements wherever stationed. The Army inventory and its distribution is controlled by 20 national inventory control points in the United States, 3 major transportation terminal commands at New York, San Francisco, and New Orleans, and by 9 overseas inventory control points. These supply control agencies are managed by the newly established Army Materiel Command. The program also accomplishes the land, sea, and air movement of some 5 million tons of materiel from the depots, through the intermediate stages in the pipeline, to the using troop units. Included also is the maintenance and protection of standby production facilities for use in the event of mobilization. A summary of total workload data specifically related to the central supply activities program follows (including reimbursable workload): 1962 actual 1963 estimate 1964 estimate 3,372 8,660 2,728 8,336 Short tons in storage istration owned. The major change to this program in 1964 is the transfer to the Defense Supply Agency of the responsibility for distribution of Single Manager supplies. In 1964, as a result of the transfer, the Defense Supply Agency will operate 2 additional Army depots and will ship about 700 thousand tons of materiel previously shipped by the Army supply system. 4. Major overhaul and maintenance of materiel.--The primary objective of this program is to maintain the Army's equipment in combat-ready condition. To meet this objective, worldwide maintenance management and assistance is provided to field commanders through maintenance publications, maintenance engineering services and technical assistance as required by the introduction and use of complex modern equipment. Major overhaul and modification of equipment and the renovation of ammunition and special weapons are funded by this program. Also, this program provides for the major overhaul of Defense agencies on a reimbursable basis. Dateriel for the Military assistance program and other Cost reduction is continually emphasized. In 1964 the Army will have in operation a new maintenance manage 650100-63-17 ment system. This system will provide for the flow of Of the total funds (direct and reimbursable) available 5. Medical activities.-This activity covers the cost of medical care of Army active duty and Reserve personnel, the dependents of active duty personnel, and, on a spaceavailable basis, retired personnel and their families. It includes the operation and maintenance of Army hospitals and certain other medical facilities, the costs of medical training for Army personnel, and operation of the Surgeon General's Office. It cost the Army $23 million in 1962 for care of dependents of its military personnel in civilian hospitals and these costs are estimated at $21 million in 1963 and $22 million in 1964. Selected major workload items are shown in the following table: Army hospitals........ 1962 actual 1963 estimate 1964 estimate Patients (Average daily load): In Army hospitals: 6.
