I'IETRICK IVIIVI1 WINCI'IENDON, ME A and E Divisions mean versatility, pure and simple. Each division maintains an extensive list of equipment that is in constant need of maintenance and repair.

The Mess Specialists and the Ship's Servicemen provide a sewice that affects every man on the ship . . . our meals and personal up- keep. On the mess decks the MS's will serve up to 750 meals a day, including breakfast, lunch and dinner, as well as mid-rats served at night for the watch standers. A night baker prepares breads, pies, cakes and cookies and there is always a salad bar stocked with a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables. Holidays are special events for the cooks, as they get a chance to really tum-to and show off their culinary expertise. The Sl'I's are responsible for providing cleaning, linen exchange and laundry pick up for the officers and the crew. A barber shop is also manned for some of the crews basic grooming needs. Additionally, the SI'l's stock and care for the soda machines which go through an average of 500 cans of soda a day. LT Geary and MS1 Kuch see to the smooth operation of these two vital rates. so l S. J. BECKER J. A.
