SUMMARY
This chapter has given you some insight into how
to prepare the various forms of correspondence that you
may be required to use. You will become better at
drafting letters, messages, memorandums, endorse-
ments, and so forth, as you gain experience. However,
it is always wise to study and have readily available
copies of the Department of the Navy Correspondence
Manual and NTP-3. Remember, when in doubt, go to
the manuals.
