.z-if J, i -9 ' wi J' Of the three deck divisions, the First, as might be expected, is responsible for the forward third of the ship. The two forward davits, the star- board paravane boom, and the starboard gear locker Cwhere Chief Sheppard and T. l. Q'Neill talk over the day's work in a hurry and usually get right down to a serious discussion of Brook- lynl, plus lO P-boats and everything forward of the Boat Deck are serviced by the paint-slinging deck-apes of the First Division. ln addition to their topside jobs, lads of the First handle nearly all general spaces forward of the messhall. C compartment, CPC quar- ters, crew's head and showers, No. l hold, and three big troop compartments get their share of good First Division sweat. The Division has its share of characters, from hashmarks to pollywogs. Can't list 'em all. Here are a few: Garzione, Martinez, Pittsley, Milstead, VV. D. lones, La Ftosa, Redmond, Krabiel, Dotson, Kozlen, Garafalo, Sorrelle, Murrell and a flock of other big winch, boom and boat boys. ln the old, old days of World War ll, First Division men were big time operators on the forward 40mm and 20mm guns and there were plenty of arguments as to who shot down what. But nowadays the Division doesn't have much to do except vacuum sweep and dry clean this magic carpet for home-going, point-happy doggies and swabbies.
