Captain Kerr outlined plans for a Naval Reserve branch in Lubbock as a possible new unit called the Tabbock. A minimum of ten officers and 200 men across ranks is needed to establish the unit, which would enhance wartime ship operations and serve as a clubhouse for reservists. Reservists are not subject to active duty except in emergencies and may undertake annual cruises with base pay and weekly drill allowances.
