Jought Now
•
Now is the opportunity for any
! man, over 18 years of age, a high
school graduate a"d physically
qualified ‘o bo enlisted in the
Alaska Communication System
for duty in Alaska or Seattle,
who can touch type at the rate
j of 30 words a minute or send
and n ceive the International
More Code at a rate of 15 words
per minute, or have other tech
nical qualifications which would
make them desirable for Signal
communication work. This state
ment was made by Roger H. Stev
en on, Op rator-in-Charge of the
I Signal Corps, United States Army
I in Juneau.
The pay to start in Alaska is
approximately $120 per month,
but during the past year due to
the large increase in the Army,
those who were air ady enlisted,
advanced in grades and ratings
very rapid y. Any applicants ac
cepted at this time will probably
find advancements come quickly
at the present time and in the
ne:.r future due to this expand
,ng army. This is a career that
should appeal especially to am
ateur operators, at least for an
enlistment or two.
The A ask a Communication
System has lost approximately 80
of their most expert need operat
ore in the past year due to trans
fers* to the United States to be
used as key men in forming of
l the may new Signal Companies
and Battalions cr ated by the in
crease of the Regular Army to
1,200,000 men.
The System has also received
an increase in personnel, and this
increase together with replace
ents for the men already trans
ferred, must be filled from volu
tary enlistments in the Army for
i the Alaska Communication Sys
tem.; ,
i Itihas bei n very difficult in the
past few year to obtain qualified
j operators to fill vacancies, and at
! live present time it has become
| extremely difficult to find any
applicants of any suitab.e qauli
fications whatever, due to new
jobs being created in civil life,
enlistments in the Army and
Navy in the States, and possibly
due to the conscription. In order
to try and fill a quota of about
80 vacancies on the System, the
qualifications hav been consid
erably lessened.
