Orderly Room
The Orderly Room? Well, Yes! It is where you normally and initially signed in to a new unit, when you where in the Army. For those of you who did not serve in the Army see the Orderly Room definition. The short form definition is that it is the administrative office of the lowest morning report echelon (unit) of the US Army (normally). Don't you just love it.....
For this site the "Orderly Room" page serves as the "switch board" for what I consider the support pages for the web site. To fully use the site a few things have to be allowed or understood. They are:
Allow the use of Java Script. Not Java. Just Java Script. This is used mainly for picture pop-ups that you the visitor enable. There are not any pop-ups that happen without your action to request them.
 The Site Log Book operates as the web-site's "Guest Book". Minor session "cookies" are used for this to function properly.
 Photo Albums open in pop-up windows or a new browser window (or tab if you have your browser set accordingly) and are pure html. However, the pop-up window is generated by Java Script.
A few items are flash generated and php scripted -- just so you are aware if something does not appear to operate as you may have expected.
Duty Rosters, when I put them back up, consists of registered entries of input from past members of various units and also entries derived from their memories of who also served at the various detachments. I still have the scripts and database from when this was last active on the site. I just have to remember how to install and update the information again.
Mini-Bio Pages and Memorial Pages will be put back up soon. There will, this time, be provision to provide data you wish to appear on the page.
The Supply page/s will eventually have items you may be interested in purchasing. The minor profit, if any, will help defray the costs of maintaining the web site.
 And, the First Sergeant's page consists of info I find interesting or good for refreshing the knowledge base of what America has or has not been. An information bulletin board. New item(s) added 21/02/2008.
SITE NEWS & UPDATES: Site page additions updates will be indicated by date on the NCS (Home Page). Full detail site news and updates are here.
Navigation: Quite frankly it is easier to navigate around the site with tabbed browser set-up such as in Firefox, Opera, or IE7. The main menu translation, for those not completely familiar with Army and ASA lanuage short cuts:
- NCS = Net Control Station ( Here on this site, the Home page)
- CONUS = Continental United States
- ASAE = Army Security Agency Europe
- ASAP = Army Security Agency Pacific
- Ops & Tng = Operations and Training
