The division's twenty-six operating spaces are disposed throughout the ship. The personnel consist of Machinist's Mates, Machin- ery Repairmen, Enginemen, and Stockers and are di- vided into four groups. The Refrigeration and Ice Machine group operates and maintains the main refrigeration system making it possible for us to enjoy fresh meat and vegetables even though we are at sea for considerable periods of time. Refrigerators, scuttlebutts, and the equipment in the ugedunkn stand is also maintained by this group. Numerous compressors and coolers of air-conditioning systems which serve the ship's vital spaces such as CIC and the plotting rooms, the magazines and the midships living quarters are all maintained by A Division as is the steam heating system in the Winter. The Diesel Group is responsible primarily for keep- ing in top condition the emergency diesels which drive generators for emergency light and power in case of casualty to the main turbo generators. ln addition they maintain the engines in all the ship's boats and, when called upon, other boats which may be attached
