The eyes of the ship! Here are the men who took us from point Loma to Inchon, from Inchon to Sasebo and so on through the rest of the cruise and finally returned us safely to San Diego. No matter where our travels took us it would seem we had been there before the way. The quartermasters directed the ship through the most restricted of waters night or day. In doing their job these men not only had to study landmarks but also had to familiarize themselves with the movements of the sun and stars. They had to be sure of time which required constant checks on their clocks and chronometers. They insure that all of their navigational equipment is in the best shape possible, compasses, alidades, binoculars, barometers, thermometers, gyro repeaters, dividers, parallel motion Protracters and various and sundry other equipment that is the r res- ponsibility. But this does not end their responsibility, they must be the ship ' s weather men. Not only do they keep themse ' ves aware of all storms and typhoons but must inform Central Weather Facilities of the weather in the areas the ship transverses. These men are also responsible for a chronological record the ship must mainta ' n in the form of the quartermaster ' s notebook which includes every evolution the ship might encounter. The Officers right hand man who must know the bridge like the back of his hand and have a working knowledge of the rules of the road so that in any situation he is ready toaid the Officer of the deck.
