Chief Engineer LCDR M. Bennett, USN One of the most demanding billets aboard ship is that of the Engineering Officer. He is responsible to the com- manding officer for the cleanliness, preservation and readiness of the ship ' s main propulsion plant, electric pow- er plant, auxiliary machinery, piping systems, damage con- trol, interior communications system, the ship ' s hull and ship wide material and equipment repair. He ensures that the required training to maintain these areas of his respon- sibility occurs. On 24 May in Subic Bay, R.P., LCDR George Admire relieved his duties as Engineering Officer to LCDR Michael Bennett. LCDR Bennett quickly showed his expertise by leading the Engineers in winning the COMTHIRDFLT Self- sufficient ship of the week award while returning home to San Diego. We say goodbye to a fine Chief Engineer and welcome aboard an outstanding replacement. Chief Engineer 29
