For want of a spare part, a gun, a man and a battle might be lost. But not in this war. by American troops. Colonel W. J. Hoffmann, command ing Umatilla Ordnance Depot, stated today that the Ordnance Department, Army Service Forces is making cer tain that every combat unit in every global theatre of war not only has plenty of guns but ample part re placements for those guns. The magnitude of this task may be gauged from the fact that Army Ordnance provides our troops with some 1.700 fighting tools, made up of over 500,000 component parts. Its importance becomes equally ap parent when it is known that if one spare part for the recoil mechanism of a 90-mm. gun is not available, the whole gun is out of action. The spare part may weigh but a few ounces and could be carried in a vest pocket. All guns receive severe field tests in this country before they are shipped overseas. But parts of guns inevita bly become broken, worn, or other wise unserviceable. Guns are dam aged by enemy ground or air attacks. Where, when, why and how frequent ly will a gun fail to function? Army Ordnance must know with reasonable certitude. This is the way the Ordnance De partment deals with this vast and complex problem. Spare parts are procured for 100 weapons at a time. This means that for every 100 Grand rifles there are supplied at least 8 rear sight aper tures. 20 barrels, 20 extractors. 8 bolt assemblies, 16 stock assemblies and 12 trigger assemblies. For a new weapin, like the Garand, the procurement of spare parts was estimated on the basis of past gener al experience with a similar weapon. These lists were then checked against battle area reports from the using services. Procurement lists are con stantly being revised up or down, based on battle experience. Manufactures today must supply spare parts with every 500 small arms weapons. This involves a lot of un- glamorous work for which companies and arsenals do not receive sufficient credit. When emergency calls are received from the front lines to repair a 90- mm. gun. Ordnance soldier-mechanics load up a truck with spare parts and tools and speed forward. If these re pair crews are to function efficiently, Army Ordnance must make sure that the right parta are in the right place Townsend Club Hall nip BRIGHTEN-UP DlU EVENT... . . . now going on at our store.
