M DIVISIG f . - ref, FINCH is blessed with an award-winning bunch of Snipes . . . the men of M Division. These are the guys who tum to in the most physically uncomfortable areas of the ship. What makes a real snipe, however, is some quirk of nature that makes them almost like it. M Division runs the ship. Their engines give power for electrical generation, their evaps usually give us water, the boilers, ship's service steamg and, most important, snipes make the ship go. Lifting out a crankshaft takes a lot of muscle, but repair work also takes a lot 5 of brains. The men of M Division are some of the few people We know who can go down into the holes ' pf, and get covered with slime and come up smelling like a rose. Well doneu for getting us out there and back . . . always on time. Division Officer: LTJG Blanchard. ' l l G l l i 2 l Repair job: call for a Jtrid af- Jembly profedzzre.
