B It is the responsibility of B Division to operate, preserve and maintain Missouri ' s eight 600 psi M-type propulsion boilers. Steam produced by these boilers provides steam heat for hot water and cooking. The ship ' s four main engines are powered by this steam, as well as the eight ship ' s ser- vice turbine generators which provide electricity. The men of B Division are always work- ing, ever maintaining main and emergency feed pumps, forced draft blowers, storage and transfer systems, fire and flushing pumps, low pressure air compressors, and all associated machinery. Additionally, thousands of gallons of boiler feed-water, drinking water, and enormous quantities of boiler fuel must be treated and tested by B Division. It is easy to see why Missouri ' s Boiler Technicians are indespensable in the daily operation of Mighty Mo. BT} Talbert and BT3 Fayette emurc the boiler front: are clean.
