IDIVISI The N division consists of that gang of guys running up and down the superstructure doing a score of strange and varied jobs, concerned mostly with finding out where we're going, what we're going to do when we get there, what we're running across on the way there, and finding our way there. lnc-luded in the gang are yeomen, radarmen, quartermasters, radiomen, signalmen and mail- men. Their jobs range from detecting enemy planes to delivering sugar reports. N division has and has had its share of characters whose eccentricities are too num- erous to mention. lt has its gang of,liberty hounds, those guys who start drooling three days from Frisco. In charge of the various sections of the di- vision, under Lt. Drannen, navigator, and Lt. Ciql Erdman, division officer, were the Chiefs : Cross, Chief Signalman, who always wanted to know, Who's got the watch? p Bartholomew, Chief Radioman, that liberty-loving lad from Dayton, Ohio, whom we lost so suddenly and tragically in Manila Bay, Toft, Chief Quarter- master, who could have written a book on How to Make Chief in Three Years 5 and Gray, Chief Yeoman, that softball playing little chief who was always eager to get the latest on the world news. The outfit ranged in age from Becker and McCann, who were veterans of married life before the birth of Goldberg and Buckner, who were just learning the words to What ls This Thing Called Love? Now that the war is over, N division's pri- mary occupation is counting its discharge points on its fingers and toes.
