Excerpt from War Food Administration Achievement "A" Award Manual for Food Processors Every food-processing plant-large or small, seasonal, or year round-is eligible to compete for the War Food Administration Achievement A Award. No one plant can possess both the wea A and the army-navy E. However, a company owning separate plants may obtain an A for one plant and an E for another. The quantity of production of the individual plant for the direct use of the Army or Navy is the governing factor for consideration for the E award. The standards to be met by food processors in winning the Achieve ment A Award are comparable with those required for the army-navy E. Each award is paramount in its own field. Nominations for the A award are originated by Regional Directors of the office of Distribution or by commodity branches of the office of Distribution in Washington, D.
