LT c. J. PENSAK SUPPLY OFFICER ENS J. L. PAUL DISBURSING OFFICER EE. Supplg Department By providing maximum material and services support to our customers, the officers, crew and embarked Marines of the USS NEWPORT, Supply Department enables the ship to maintain the highest possible state of operational readiness and morale. This high level of support is Supply Department's mission and total reason for being aboard USS NEWPORT. Led by the Supply Officer, the storekeepers initiate and ensure the requisitioning, delivery, receipt, and storage of all repair parts and general consumable items required to operate the ship. The Supply Department also directly supports the crew through a multitude of services provided by the Sales Officer and ship's servicemen: a barber shop and laundry to help keep the sailors looking like sailors, a shipls store to provide everything from basic necessity items to luxury items for gift giving, and soda and candy vending machines for a quick snack. All the profits from these operations go back to the crew by way of financial support for the welfare and recreation program aboard. Keeping the officers and crew well fed is the responsibility of the Food Service Officer and his team of Mess Management Spe- cialists. The MS's baked bread and doughnuts, prepared and served up to 1,100 meals per day for a hungry group of sailors and Marines. This tremendous task required a lot of groceries and plenty of talent at all hours of the day and night. The maintenance of pay records and paying of the crew is the re- sponsibility of the Disbursing Officer and Disbursing Clerks. Handling of regular and special pay, cashing of checks and exchanging of foreign currency are some of the more visible functions of the Disbursing Officer. Every man in the Supply Department contributes towards sup- porting the ship and crew with a wide variety of services and specialized skills required to maintain USS NEWPORT and her crew in the highest condition of material readiness and morale. 053035586
