Abstract:

In an effort to make service life as attractive as possible to reduce turnover, non-commissioned officers of the 82nd Airborne Division at Fort Bragg are providing themselves with a million dollar N.C.O club. The Department of the Army has granted a $500,000 loan to finance the project to be paid back in quarterly installments from operating proceeds. Aside from the club with dance floor, lounge, and restaurant, the facility will include a pool, tennis court, nursery, and guest motel units.
