N DIVISION Based as it is largely upon maintaining friendly relations between the universe and a series of fine-print tables, the art of navigating anything the size of the BALTIMORE neces- sarily demands patience and skill. Although little is heard about the time records made in the Navigation Department, since the ship was recommissioned last year, great strides have been made in increasing the calibre, accuracy, and speed of navigational computations. This in turn increases the efficiency of the depart- ment as a whole. ' The man who seems to be wiggling little pieces of mirrored glass around so that the sun shines directly into his eyes is not trying to get a medical discharge from the Navy - rather, he is making sure that the ship gets to its next port so you can hit the beach on time. And the guy who runs in small circles chasing the compass needle is only seeing to it that the Navigator gets the scoop on that iceberg that has suddenly appeared off the port bow. At GQ and special sea detail, the N Division goes to work on the bridge - the brain of the ship. Quartermaster of the watch, helmsman, lee helmsman, the guy on the alidade or in the chart house - each plays his own important part in the actions of the ship. Men are also stationed in after steering and secondary conn. Anyone in N- can tell the Captain or the OOD just where the ship is at any given time - with the aid of navigational instruments and the various charts and tables. Sunrise and sunset - and those hours of sleep you lose or gam - are indirectlv the result of -N- Division ' : constant consideration of your every comfort. In port, the quartermaster stands his watch on the quarter deck - and earns for himself the unhappy reputation of being not only the man who logs you in when you arc AOL but also the man who wakes you up for that welcome midwatch. His log is the primary means by which the ship can account for itself at all times, and woe to the QM who fails to make all necessary entries. Knowing how happy everyone is at sea, N Division helps to keep you there - afloat. rtrhmun, WM.on. Van Hon, |li .111.1V. .n, Joncf. Br ctg,r. Oli- ' Wil.un. Kostrr (bad) '
