- DI Senior stew burner CS1 L.C. Newmister once again provided MARKAB sailors with three unbelievable meals a day, every day of the week. Every sailor whois ever eaten on the MARKAB will attest to the fact that nowhere else in the Navy can you find a meal as extra. ordinarily prepared as that which is served on this ship. Of course, Newmister couldn't do everything by himself, he had very excellent assistance from the fine staff of commissarymen headed by CS2 D,L, l Flash Fogg and CS3 R.C. Fat-man Sperle. Flash's LT H- G. BUFHS specialty was good old Navy soup, no one else could make soup like Flash.Upon tasting the finished product, the sailor is always left wondering how one man could do all this. Fat-man spent most of his time in MARKAB's bake shop, concocting all sorts of little goodies for the crew. Usually working through the night, he prepared eye-opening pastries which were a treat to any man's palate. Yes indeed, a sailor will always remember a meal on the MARKAB long after he leaves this ship. Bravo Zulu. stew!!! Nicholson loves peas, p Front Row 1 to r: CS3 L. E. Conley, SN G. J.

- DI With the inscrutable LTJG B.R. Choy blazing the trail, S-3 Division once again provided the officers and crew of the MARKAB with the best laundry and barber serv- ices. . .they really got their money's worth. With CMAA MMC D.D, Powll, big brother to all MARKAB men, looking over his shoulder, SH3 J.S. Speed West in- ' ' ' ld walk sured that whoever sat in his barber chair cou away, MARKAB sailors also looked to S-3 for the nec- essities of life--cigarettes, soap, toothpaste, skivies ' ' SH3 and what-not. All were sold at minimal cost by R.E. Sam Courter, SN L.L. Headcall Barrett, and Skates Williams Worthy of mention is the man SH2 J. , behind the scenes--SH2 D.B. Eagle-beak Barrett, with- out his professional know-how in maintaining the records in the front office, all services provided by S-3 would have ceased to function when supplies ran out. Indeed, S-3 Division personifies SERVPAC's motto of Service to the Fleet. Front Row 1 to r: SHB1 A, S. Sanicolas, SH2 LTJG B. R Choy D. B. Barrett. Back Row 1 to r: SHB3 R, E Courier. SN L.L.
