You might say that supplies for which money is not directly needed but for which- a requisition must be made up and properly authenticated are the domain of S-l. The Storekeepers find that one of their major jobs is in prepar- ing for replenishment periods. Logrep strip cards — IBM cards — must be passed to a replenishing ship in advance for the following period some two weeks later. To be able to figure this out means that the storerooms must be neatly arranged with the goods which are most needed in a clearly accessible position, even though the space is not available to make this an easy job. Their ability to order two weeks to a month ahead of time is one of those talents which comes only through experience. m W. E. Lindberg, SKI Arlington, Mass. D. A. Nielson, SK2 Alba, Pa. R.

C. i S-2 Division makes sure that the crew gets its fill of food each day. Responsible for the reefer spaces where the food is stored, and the prepara- tion and serving of it, the Commissarymen must make sure that waste does not occur on their own part. As far as the crew is concerned, very little food is wasted except for lack of room in their stomachs. Pastries and bread are supplied as an added incentive for the sailor to fill himself up. The menus are prepared, food issued and requisitions made up on the basis of prevalent tastes and consumption. The Standard Navy Ration stipulates the minimum each man is to get and at the same time pro- hibits our going overboard on the chow except on special occasions. The rapidity with which the chow-line forms is adequate testimonial to the good job they are doing. J. Stroebel, CS2 Bronx. N. Y. J. Brown, CS3 Brewton, Ala. 81
