NAVIG TICJN DEP RTME T SING stars for sign posts, the gators of the Navigation department guided the ship thru the tens of thousands of miles the LEYTE covered in her record-smashing sprints over the globe. i Charged with the safe passage of the ship thru the many strange waters he has seen, the Quarter- masters' duties and skills cover a large span. Anyasteering other than routine cruising calls for an experienced QM, and the Quartermaster of the Watch is the good 'starboard armi of the OOD both in port and at sea.. Honors fa CV has manyj are N,division's -responsibility, and the accurate winding andsetting of over a hundred ship's clocks fall into their lot too. p These jobs are subordinate, however, to the primary task of navigating, an exacting, tedious achieve- ment. Led by Cmdr. Henry T. Haselton, the N department ran up an accident-free mark, despite quick transitions from one area to another. s ' , Originally attached to Operations Dept. where it Was known asO-N Division, a recent change con- verted it into a full fledged department. So, in the future, as in the past, we'll get you there, safe, sound- and likelthe LEYTE itself, ready for anything! y ' Feiiififlf23232312211:51152252515522532ii'iiiieiiiisizif?E3335: ?2?241i323f?gS'E1 ' V122':5E5i:'f . ,. i.i:fe'1lrii1?5'f252l i fiiiifl , ' a ss. , y 2.
