The Navy program, to be man- aged by MarineSafety Internation- al, a subsidiary of FlightSafety In- ternational, is designed to provide officers attending the Navy's Sur- face Warfare Officers School with training in shiphandling and ship maneuvering. William M. Pugh, president of Tracor Hydronautics, said develop- ment of the simulator will be per- formed in Laurel, under the man- agement of Eugene R. Miller, technical director.
