When the ships want JP-5 they work with Second Division, for only rigs iournand eight handle this commodity. When they arenit pumping fuel these sailors are standing bridge Watches and manning the motor whale boat but most of all they rope off freshly painted areas of the ship to encourage the snipes to get more exercise.

The CACAPON didnit get any lVllGS this cruise but it wasn't Third Divisionis fault. These gunners mates and fire control technicians work around the clock to insure that the ship maintains its fire power capabilities. The gunners mates fire the shot lines over and transfer ammunition, while the fire controlmen handle the phone and distance lines to the receiving ships. When the detail is set, their work isjust starting, when its over, there are hundreds of yards of shotline which must be untangled and rewound in preparation for the next one.
