As Tech was dominated by R/Scrs no tech help could be expected under that organization.

Your attention is invited to the Psychosis HCOB which gives the behavior of an R/Ser. You should study this and believe it, as it is true.

So the generał plan was to segregate R/Sers, clean up Tech and Qual and the ship and push the producers into OT State and let the destroyers save themselves if they could .

Short of that no hope could be scen.

To the RPF are assigned R/Sers, Iow OCA nonproducers or repeated stat crashers and overt product makers.

Like industry or any organization or ship before that datę, when a crew member stole or embezzled or refused to work he was simply fired and offloaded. Scientology crew members objected to this. They demanded that provisions be madę to rehabilitate the person. They had the idea that a person should be given a choice of being off-loaded or rehabilitated.

Management at that time acceded to crew demands and formed a Rehabilitation Project Force. It was, factually, a somewhat expensive decision.

Persons so assigned are to have 5 hours a day for study or auditing. They are to leam tech and get themselves handled in co-audit and are graduated from it only when they have released another fully, been of materiał help to the unit and are themselves fully cleaned up.

In the RPF the person receives counseling and does work on a team basis. The largest percent of persons assigned to an RPF graduate successfully and rejoin the crew. The majority of these give rave success stories. No other management organization undertakes such a function. They just fire people.

This was a new idea. After formation of the RPF things then started to straighten out.

The ship stands ąuite ready to accept people back off the RPF, fully handled, fully capable in life and valuable. The RPF also waits for anyone fouling up habitually and injuring ship and crew survival.

The RPF is proving to be one of the most successful salvage actions ever undertaken.

Any casualty from it simply was not fully handled case-wise.

The rest are a howling success and I’m happy for them.
