LII. MEN 8 ELEETHIIIII-W5 Contrary to the opinion of many casual observers, the primary duty of the electricians is not the operation of movie projectors. Their responsibilities include the generation, transmission, and application of electrical power, they maintain and repair electrical machinery from the turbogenerators to the gyrocompass. Their daily duties may be as simple as changing light bulbs or as deli- cate as the adjustment of the dead reckoning analyzer. Here illustrated is an electrician performing one of his rou- tine occupations, the testing of electrical connections to insure that they are properly grounded for purposes of safety. At other times he may be found down in the bowels of the ship, standing watch over switchboards and generators, or dangling from the top of the mast, repairing a short in the truck lights. The principal job of the IC electricians is, of course, internal communications. They maintain and regulate the various broadcast and telephone systems that are so necessary l for the efficient operation of a modern war- ship even during routine operations. They stand their watches in the IC room, where their chief responsibility is the master gyro- compass. They are among the select few who have stood port and starboard watches during , W most of the cruise. During GQ, the electricians are to -be found at the turbogenerators and emergency diesel generators, in after steering and the IC room, and manning the damage control parties. Theirs is certainly one of the most vital jobs on board. Vw A 5 TH if f ' x I1
