MP Division IMain Propulsionj, in the Engineering De- partment, is responsible for main propulsion and the main boiler systems. Personnel in MP division consist of Ma- chinist Mates IMMQ and Boiler Technicians IBD, who are assigned to four work centers. Together, they main tain two of the Navy's largest main boilers, two main engines, two distilling plan ts, and a myriad of associated auxiliary equip- ment. In addition, the hole snipes, the namesake of MP Division, have the reputation of steaming their engineering systems for a continuous 110 days without a major equip- ment breakdown during the Med cruise. The Boiler Technician rating is a general rating which covers a broad occupational Held of related duties and func- tions including operations of all types of marine boilers, and in ven torying, testing, and transferring of fresh water. The history of the BT dates back to 195Z when the Boiler Maker fBRj rating was established for the E-6 through E-9 level as a specialty in boiler maintenance and repair. At that time the BT became primarily a specialist in boiler oper- ations. However, the BR rating was disestablished in 1976 and the BT now performs in all areas related to boilers. The Machinist Mate rating is a general rating also and covers the operation and maintenance of ship's propulsion machinery. On LHA class ships, MMs and BTs jointly operate and maintain the propulsion and boiler systems. They are cross trained to be ultimately watch supervisors of both MMs and BTS. BTI-'R Edwards checks the boiler during normal steaming. 4
