LTjg. B. A. Brown B Division Officer The ancient Greelcs liave contributed many tilings to modern society — lan- guage, traditions, inventions, art. One Greek which contributed a little of each was Hero. Since his time, mankind has known the power of steam and also has had a word for a person of courage. This man designed the first simple steam engine. From this has come the simple rating badge for a boilerman and the complex giant turbines which push the Midway ' s 62,000 tons through the Pacific. The men of B Division handle the boilers which produce steam for pro- pulsion, for electrical power, for heat, and for the hundreds of auxiliary pur- poses necessary in a modern city. And it is steam produced by sweat. The B Division spaces are almost always over 100° Fahrenheit. ■JSt A« J ' Li . L • i i ' , 7 r?nm Sl° ]S ' J ' ' ' ' ' ' - ' - • Cliris-tianson. H. D. ; Borquez, A.
