EFFICIENT. DEPENDABLE PRODUCTIVE DESPITE HANDICAPS-The federal government' special Interest In handicapped citUens who possess skills is based
on logic rather than compassion. The government has learned that It is to Its ad vantage to hire skilled handicapped people and this is true here at NAS Jax as it

is at other installationl. The Naval Air Station has some 277 handicapped persons on its payroll, all doing"productive work. The three employees above, shown at their
daily jobs consented to be photographed to represent all the other handicapped here to bring attention to National Employ the Physically Handicapped Week. How-
ever, it is emphasized that the government's concern for the handicapped extends through the other 51 weeks of the year. Robert Stanley (left), who i. totally

miles a minute while performing acrobatics, crisscrossingand

team, numbering some 20 men, is composed of
volunteer naval parachutists. The team is led by Lieutenant

Commander Bruce Cobb. .

The Blue Angels, who put out a little extra whenever

they come to Jax, will execute some of the most daring

maneuvers to be seen anywhere. Flying the Grumann F11F

Tiger jet, the Angels fly in tight formation at high speeds -

in a flawless demonstration of precision flying. Althoughthe

individual maneuvers performed by the Team are

those taught to every prospective naval aviator, the entire

show, as it is seen today, has evolved through the years

since the first team was organized here in June 1946. The
famous "Diamond" formation is their trademark.
