A reminder to all that plan to attend the 2003 Yuma
Proving Ground Forensic Test Session; Dec. 12 is fast
approaching. The test session will be Dec. 12 and 13 this
year, a week later than originally announced.
If you will be attending, you must let Bill Morris
(azmorris@aol.com) know
by the end of November, only those on this years security
list will be able to enter the base. If you are a new
attendee you must have your security data to Bill by that
time, this includes Name, Address, Phone #, Soc. Security #,
DOB, POB. Those who have attended in the past need not
update their information, if changes have not occurred, but
must notify Bill of your intent to attend.
Please remember that you must also provide Bill (azmorris@aol.com)
a list of all firearms and ammunition you will be bringing
to the test session. No firearms that have not been listed
on the security lists will be allowed on base. If you have
scheduled a test it is your responsibility to provide Bill
with the list of firearms and ammunition you are bringing
for that test. Include make, model and caliber. The same
deadline applies.
If you wish to schedule a test, and have not already done
so, you need to contact me
(James.Roberts@mail.co.ventura.ca.us) with a written proposal before the end of November. We
have a number of tests scheduled already. I will need all of
your information on the tests no later than one week after
that. I will let you know what is not in the written
proposal that I still need. A list of tests for the radar
technicians must be prepared in advance with data they need
to set up for each test. Those who are doing high speed
photo tests please include caliber and make of firearm in
your proposals as well as a thorough description of how the
tests will be conducted and any special equipment you will
need or any construction that will need to be done on sight.
Those that want more information about the test session may
also contact Bill or me. For a copy of the flyer on this
years session contact me.
