I uniiJiiiy t LCDR JENE L LESLIE In order to keep track of our many projects and our many people, much time and effort is expended on paperwork. For The Word you turn to the directives and Plan of the Day issued through the Administration office. For printing paint chits and other necessary local forms and for mimeo- graphing The Word, there is the Print Shop. Each event of note in your military career is recorded in the Captain ' s or Personnel Office. Is it school information, naval training courses, or educa- tional advice and advancement you want? Then by all means the Training Office is your best bet. Courts-martial information and legal assistance and advice can readily be obtained from the Legal Office. for matters of the spirit and personal problems the Chaplain is always available. Last, but for from least, such all-important matters as shore-duty or that long hungered for annual leave are functions of the ADMINISTRA- TION DEPARTMENT ! LT EUGENE M. SMITH Chaplain :

W. stand alert visua- watches on the Signal Bridge for twenty-tour hours of every- day, including holiday routine. Yes, these men are our Signas Men of O-S Division. R H. C. BOUTTE OPERATIONS DEPT. HEAD Aerology or Wea ' her-Guessers as these boys are more popularly known by, is the Navy term for Meteorology. They have our deepest sympathies ! Bess, Elaine, Faye, Inez, Judy, Kit and Lola all gave Aerology trouble. If you haven ' t already guessed, these ladies ore Typoons. We give our Thanks to the over-worked and under- paid bunch who hibernate in the photo-Lab. They are never heard, seldom seen, but always working though seldom do they get due credit. If for no other reason, the Photogs have, with the help of our good Chaplain, earned their keep by their fme judicious and inconceivable work that went into the book you are now holding. To sum up, the Operations Department contains a great bunch of Operators all working together to make our ship function well and our cruise successful. ACTING DEPT. HEAD
