A LEGACY DISCOVERY OF FERMI-LAT IS THE VARIABILITY OF THE CRAB NEBULA AT 100 MEV - 1 GEV ENERGIES. THIS HAS CALLED INTO QUESTION WHETHER THE PULSAR WIND TERMINATION SHOCK (PWTS) IS THE SITE OF ENERGETIC LEPTON INJECTION FOR THE SURROUNDING NEBULA. THIS PROPOSAL EXAMINES THE ABILITY OF ACCELERATION IN THE PWTS PROXIMATE TO TURBULENT FIELDS TO EXPLAIN THE CRAB FLARES. A KINETIC SIMULATION OF ELECTRON TRANSPORT IN PRESCRIBED LONG-WAVELENGTH FIELD FLUCTUATIONS AND CONCOMITANT SYNCHROTRON RADIATION WILL BE DEVELOPED INJECTING NON-THERMAL ELECTRON DISTRIBUTIONS OBTAINED FROM SIMULATIONS OF DIFFUSIVE ACCELERATION IN RELATIVISTIC SHOCKS. THE PENETRATION OF ELECTRONS INTO MAGNETIC ISLANDS WILL BE EXPLORED AND THE FLUX FREQUENCY VARIABILITY AND POLARIZATION OF THE EMISSION WILL BE OBTAINED.
