The first type of check is one directed by the US authorities on a random basis through the TTs communications facilities which exist. Any faults found on this type of inspection are usually oorreoted by the Sqn personnel, and if the correction is beyond the ability of the Sqn personnel, a Depot team is sent from the US to perform the rectification. In addition to this randcm checking, a regular formal Ad Hoc maintenance team visit is made at least onoe every six months for the purpose of inspecting the warheads and providing modification, alteration, and quality assurance as required. 4 Almost all of this work is performed by field operations, hence there is very little movement of warheads back to the U S . It is estimated that not more than five warheads per year will be required to be transported to the US from the Bomarc and CF-101 sites during normal conditions. * yLAyC* (RM Aldwinckle) G/C nADSI 23561 oot DArmEng A201600064 CSC 1888:9 Pt. 3 ,000705 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
