CWO C. S. Chuckta Taking it from the top down, lets start with the l!nd Division. The mainstay of the Dixie ' s Deck Department, this prime division is always on the ball where the good appearance and operation of the ships deck equipment is involved. The men of the Second Division pride themselves on being ready to stand any kind of an inspection in any uniform at any time at all. This involves a great deal of work and responsibility as they have an extremly large deck area to take care of. The Boat Deck involves the After Stack, the port and starboard cranes, the outside of various offices, and numerous ships liberty boats. The 0-1 Deck has approximately 300 feet of deck on both sides of the ship to holystone at 0400 every Friday morning and this is enough work to wear out anybody at all, not to mention all the bulkhead area that has to be scrubbed, chipped, scraped, and painted at various intervals. The Main Deck, the most important deck on the ship, also has the same share of holystoning as the other decks. More than that, it must be in tip top shape at all times for when visiting dignitaries come aboard, the first thing they see is the bulkhead area around them. They notice that it is all squared away. Second Division gets another commendation for their excellent deck seamanship. Harris, C. E. Ackerman, F. Nemecek, J. H. Leach, L. P. Ferguson, R. O. Brown, L. D. Compton, J. T. Stempleski, E. M.
