General Description

This programme observes red clump stars of the galactic bar. Observations
 of a large sample of those stars aim at measuring the radial velocity and the metallicity
 distribution of different areas spread along the bar major axis. 3 bar fields will
 be observed (5PN,5NN,9P) plus one bulge reference field (C32). The observations
 will all be with GIRAFFE medusa mode.

Special Execution Requirements

Given the low S/N of the targets of the bar fields (5PN,5NN,9P), preference
 should be given to the completion of all the OBs on a given field before proceeding
 with another target.

The reference bulge field should be observed with priority 1 as it will be used
 as a reference for the other fields. 
The bar fields 5PN and 5NN have both priority 2. 
9P has priority 3 as it requires to have studied 5PN and 5NN to understand its results.
