His earlierexperience included varioussupervisory and managementpositions in the former U.S. ArmyMap Service, where he was thesenior civilian when he moved toDIA in 1962.

Andregg's work took him tomany parts of the world.

As a Fellow of the Society ofAmerican Military Engineers andas a national president of theAmerican Congress on Surveyingand Mapping, Andregg had amajor role in shaping professionalgrowth in his profession.

In his position as DeputyDirector, Management andTechnology, Andregg oversawprograms involving mappingexchange agreements with 55national mapping organizations.DMA has 8,100 personnel workingin about 40 locations around theworld.

Holiday Cheer for Many ln Area

The Result 0f Center Employee GoodwillTraditionally employees of the

Aerospace Center have helped tomake the holidays brighter for theless fortunate and this past seasonwas no exception. Employees,working in small groups or throughorganizational elements within theCenter, contributed money, toys,canned goods and a variety ofother items to the many charitableundertakings in the Greater St.Louis area.

The Aerospace CartographyDepartment raised a total of $1638through various activities fromincreased coffee prices to peanutand bake sales. The Kansas CityOffice accounted for $415 of thatamount with $215 going to a formeremployee and his family and theremainder to the Truman MedicalCenter East. Of the total collected

in St. Louis $743.50 went to theSalvation Army with fi?9.50donated to the Judevine Center forAutistic Children. It should benoted that one section, ACIDC,raised over $800 on peanut sales.

The Aeronautical InformationDepartment collected cannedgoods and cash contributions forthe Thanksgiving Canned FoodDrive for the St. Louis Residenceconducted by the Little Sisters ofthe Poor. They also collected manyusable toys for the U.S. MarineReserve Toys for Tots drive. Inbake sales the department earned$240 which was used to buy toys forhandicapped children.

The Directorate of CivilianPersonnel took up a collectionamong their staff and made acontribution to the Salvation Ar-

According to security officials there are three basic areas ofawareness in any operations security program: (1) the operations areaitself where mental laxness on the part of planners can cause a com-promise, (2) the communications area where information can beretrieved through sophisticated methods because someone improperlyused the telephone or other communications system, (3) the humanfactor where information can be obtained from papers discarded intrash cans or from casual conversations in public places.

What can the individual employee do to adhere to his or her securityresponsibilities?

my's Tree of Lights.The DMAAC Women's Club

provided contributions of cannedgoods and $112 to the KatherineChapman family, a widow andmother of eleven children with sixliving at home.

The Geopositional Departmentgenerated funds by sellingoranges, apples, peanuts, candyand other items. Their totalcollection of $601.70 was donated tothe Salvation Army Tree of Lights.This was the 10th consecutive yearthe department has raised fundsfor the Tree.

The Printing and DistributionDepartment contributed $140 to theSalvation Army Tree of Lights.The PD employees also con-tributed clothing, food, toys andgames to assist fourteen familieshave a merrier holiday.

Security Awareness Everybodyb BusinessSecurity, in terms of what we say or write, and how and where we say

and do things, is certainly the business of all of those employed by theAerospace Center. Throughout the existence of this agency the securityeducation programs have stressed the individual's responsibility.

The concern for security is well founded. The last two decades haveseen staggering technological breakthroughs in the state of the art ofinformation gathering. Current automated methods and more efficientprocedures of processing information into intelligence afford not onlytimely but also much more accurate intelligence. Because of the ad-vancing technologies we as government employees (or contract em-ployees) must increase our awareness of those areas that presentpotential security problems. Continued Page 4

New 15c stamps commemorating two assassinated American leaders who advocated social andpolitical change in the 1960s were issued by the U.S. Postal Service. A Black Heritage Series stamppaying tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was available at post offices on Jan. 15, 1979, theSOth anniversary of Dr. King's birth, following ceremonies at the Ebenezer Baptist Church inAtlanta, Ga. First day of issue ceremonies for the stamp honoring Robert F, Kennedy tookplace Jan. 12, 1579, at the Department of Justice in Wa*rington, D.C.. where the former senatoralso served as U.S, Attorney General during the Kennedy administration.

From the Black book:

The holidays completed and thenew year begun we sit down at theold typewriter to begin anothervolume of the Orientor. Severalthings have transpired over thelast week or so that effect our viewof 1979 and require a comment ortwo in this space. First, of course,is the announcement of Colonel St.Clair's retirement which caught allof us by a bit of a surprise. He'sbeen with us for several years asdeputy and then director and hasbeen so involved in some of the newmanagement programs that Isuppose we came to take him forgranted as a permanent fixture.For St. Louis, it is most fortunatethat he has elected to stay here andI'm sure will be continuing hisefforts in the area of communityand charitable service. The othercomment has to do with anotherretirement, one that few at thisCenter knew about or will bedirectly effected by, but one thatcertainly effects this office. Theretirement I speak of is that ofCharles Waterman, the PublicAffairs Officer for DMA. Chuckhad been with the organization foralmost four years and during thattime he and I have traveled many apathin the public affairs country. Ihave the greatest respect for histalents and will certainly miss hisgentlemanly wisdom andguidance. DMA will certainly behard pressed to fill his shoes.
