LAUNDRY

A station laundry will be operated, in the basement of the Composite building, by the 5040th Air Base Squadron. A Station Regulation will govern procedures. At present, government supplied or welfare fund
washers and dryers are found in several billets. These machines are
to be used very carefully because of inability to locally repair major breakdowns.

DRY CLEANING

Dry cleaning services are to be available through Adak Naval Air
Station by air mail on commercial aircraft. Service varies from 3 to
7 days. Prices are low but air mail adds considerably to the cost.

TAILORING

Several skilled tailors are permitted to provide services to mend,
repair, sew on stripes, etc. Excellent work is done at very reasonable prices.

BARBERS

A number of schooled and licensed barbers are permitted to provide tonsorial services on Shemya. Each barber is tested and must maintain sanitary conditions. Prices vary from fifty cents to a dollar according
to services rendered.
