DENTAL The Navy likes to have its sailors keep their teeth, so to help with that chore is the Dental Department. The Dental Technicians that staff the Department provide the highest standard of professional dental care obtainable for personnel aboard the Mt. Whitney and its embarked staffs. Our DT's help maintain oral hygiene aboard the ship, and anyone who has a dental problem can rest assured that D Division can handle it. Mt. Whitney owes a lot to her Dental department, and we're glad that they're aboard. Lt. E. R. Smith Dental MEDICAL The Medical Department is one of those departments that you would rather not have on board, but it's nice to know they're there. Besides having one of the most up-to-date and completely equipped sick-bay's aboard a ship, our Medical Department is staffed by some of the most well trained and qualified personnel the Fleet has to offer. Being congenial, and truly sympathetic towards all their patients, the Mt. Whitney'S corpsmen make the trip to sick-call more pleasant. The Medical Department QH Divisionj is responsible for food and water sanitation, lst aid boxes, Sick Call, Weight Control programs, Immunizations, and any other normal or emergency situation that may arise. The Mt. Whitney donated the most blood to the Ports- mouth Naval Hospital at one time, 146 pints. The Medical department coordinated this effort and spent many hours working on this project. Lt. K.
