USS Theodore Roosevelt Acft
---------------------------
Aircraft off of the USS Theodore Roosevelt worked the ranges during the
afternoon despite bad weather, and then returned to work the range
until nearly midnight. Bad wx in the ALTRV severely hampered
operations; and several of the acft had to RTB to USS Ship because of
low fuel level incurred by wx deviations. Some attacked targets at Avon
Park and Pinecastle Ranges; also engaged in ACM and AAR.
