CWO C. E. Brown sio:n The First Division has a very important job. The job of maintaining the fleet is not enough. You must maintain your own ship as well as certain ships of the fleet. To do this takes a lot of hard work. Sometimes 15 or 16 hours a day, but it still must be done. Day in and day out paintwork has to be chip- ped, red leaded, and then it must be painted. When you get done, more often than not you have to start all over again. All of this comes under general work in the forward half of the ship. All of the men in the First Division pride themselves in being of the two deck divisions on the Dixie and will strive to keep this record intact now and in the future months to come. As for the Gunnery Department of the First Division, of four gun mounts on the Dixie, Mount ' s 51 and 52 received two E ' s for gunnery excellence and all indications point to the fact that this should continue for a long time to come. Many long hours go into the maintaining of the guns and the training of the personnel to handle them when the need arises. These, then, are the jobs and duties of the First Division. I i 1 Bates, W.
