MILLICAN Damage Confrol Officer V--YYY' GI EER ' f ' 'A 9 M4 7 1 f c T IT you Talk To an engineer long enough, he'll have you believing ThaT his iob is The mosT imporTanT on The ship. And . . . well, maybe iT is. The NEOST-TO was builT Tor more speed Than any auxiliary had ever made. Speed means beTTer maneuverabililry and more eTTicienT overall operaTion wiTh oTher ships since a TorrnaTion musT assume The speed oT The slowesT ship To aTTord maximum proTecTion Tor slow ships. So iT's The sailors Trom The lvl and B gangs ThaT suddenly become very imporTanT when yo,u're on cruises like The l-TaliTax and NELM Trips where The NEOST-IO is conTinually pushed aT Top speeds To keep up wiTh The big and small boys: and so iT is Tor kicking ThaT ThroTTle during a man overboard drill or when anchoring or mooring. And The R gang garnered a chunk oT The crediT Tor The ship's brillianT Tueling Triumph: she broke all exisTing records Tor pumping raTes To all Types oi ships in The SixTh FleeT . . , probably a world's record. Too . . . OT course, an E gang man migh+ noT say his job is The mosT imporTanT. buT he'll be guick To Tell you iT's The mosT hazardous considering some OT The movies he shows. And if you sTill don'T believe he can'T run inTo any- Thing more dangerous Than a Tew liTTle shocks, Talk To The elecTrician who was ThreaTened in eighT languages aTTer The power had blown To his lighTing rig aT The boaT landing in Tangiers. W ' And iT A is Tor apple iT's also Tor auxiliaries and if you war1T To know, how imporTanT The A gang is, Try living wiThouT hoT waTer Tor a while or wiThouT an operaTing uTiliTy boaT when The ship's aT anchor. Convincing, isn'T iT. CHMACH Jas. E. GRUNDY Main Propulsion Assisfanf M f Q f W Q M g
