LTjg. J. R. Doggett, III S-5 Division Officer S-5 Division is a business unto itself. Every piiase of operation of a large hotel has its counterpart in the operation of the group of spaces known aboard a carrier as Officer ' s Country. Three dining rooms, a lounge, scores of rooms on si x different stories, ' and the storage spaces and offices that are needed for their operation are all maintained by the TN ' s and Stewardsmates of S-5. Not only does the work of this division contribute to the morale of the officers, but because the Wardroom is the first place im- portant visitors usually see in detail, S-5 helps the ship as a whole by keeping the spaces sharp.

LTjg. W. W. Delzell S-4 Division Officer Much has been said since the beginning of the Navy about the responsibility it gives to its young men. It is an accepted fact that no place else on earth is the safety of a one- half billion dollar plant entrusted to a man 23 years old, as a modern carrier is entrusted to its young OfRcer-of-the-Deck. But there is another job aboard which should go right alongside this — the Disbursing Officer. This one man, and the handful of men working for him, must handle approximately one million dollars per month. Every penny must be accounted for. The job is not simp- ly one of paying each of Midway ' s 3,600 men their regular salary, but throughout the cruise men transfer on and off and go to temporary schools. Each case calls for special pay. Then to add to the problems, the money paid out to the crew in one port is not always good in the next — yen must be changed for MPC, MFC for green and green for Hong Kong dollars . . .
