The men in white carry out this function by giving inno- culations, inspecting living spaces and galleys, and by examination of food and water supply. Corpsmen duties consist of treatment of injuries wherever they may occur. Education of the crew in personal hygiene and in first aid occupies lecture- bent Medical Department personnel whose own training program is integrated with that of the ship. Men of the Medical Department stand behind the motto: ««A healthy crew is a ready crew and a ready crew makes a good ship.
