Shelton, W. E. Dodd, W. E. Storekeepers play a very important role aboard the DIXIE. They are responsible not only for giving their customers a hard time , but for procuring, stowing and issuing all general stores, repair parts and ordnance and electronic equipment used by the ship. A record is kept in the Supply Office on every item of stock in the S-1 storerooms. The 37,000 items normally carried in stock are valued at about 8 1,500,000.00 and the ship spends about 8 500,000.00 per year for stock replenishment. Storekeepers account for all money spent from the ship ' s Operating Target. A portion of the Operating Target is assigned to each depart- ment according to their needs. The Supply Department is responsible for informing each Head of Department when his fund has been deplet- ed. When this happens the Department Head becomes involved in Sup- ply Department red tape and there ensues a juggling of money so that the department concerned can again hear the cash register jingle. o Mudd, S.

Ens D. Johnson The Dixie food is the finest. The commis- sarymen, messcooks, bakers, and all those who help to keep our bellies full have a great deal to be proud of. Early in the morning while most of us are still sawing off the log , they begin their days work. Salads for the salad bar are second to none, fine pastries by the bakers, and plenty of good food produced by those grill jockeys are some of the real assets of the Dixie galley. With the instal- lation of the HI-FI system, we now can enjoy good music while we enjoy this good food. These men not only provide food for our 700 plus sailors, but many times are called upon to feed the sailors of destroyers along side while they have their mess halls altered or repaired. This means that they must keep their huge kettles boiling longer, but they do this in stride. Arendt, J. Roche, R. L. Osterman, W. L. Stewart, C. W. f ' =» Harrington, A. J. Payne. R. P. Fowler, C.
