Box 4087 Austin, Texas 78773 Dear Mr. Walker: An emergency RACES exercise is planned by Officials of Brazos County Civil Defense on June 14, 1980 sometime in the afternoon. As part of this exercise we need to establish emergency communications with your center on the RACES net. Realizing that this date and time will be during hours that are normally considered off -duty, I called on May 20, 1980 to discuss this matter with you. However, you were out of town when I called, so Mr. Cox and I discussed the prob- lem of contact with your center during off -duty hours, and he said such contact would be possible. Dr. Tom Comstock, our County RACES Officer, will be in contact with you in the near future to further discuss the exercise, problems, and establish a schedule of times for net operations. Your coop ration and assistance "beyond the call of duty" will be greatly appreciated.
