CWO W.T. Morris The R-l - Hull Repair Division consists of seven metal and wood- working shops, and a canvas shop. With an average strength of approximately ninety-five men, it is one of the largest divisions of the Repair Department. The personnel of the division are artificers, which literally translated means skilled worker, mechanic, or craftsman, and it is doubtful whether a more skillful group of craftsmen can be found elsewhere in the United States Navy. With advances in tech- nology however, the normal professional qualifications of the artificer are sometimes not sufficient, but the division is fortunate in having specialist in areas other than those covered by specific rates, such as the industrial X-ray technician, heat treatment specialist, certified high pressure welder, and incidently, even a qualified safe-cracker. The primary function of the division is the repair, fabrication or installation of all metal, wood, or composite structural members of the vessels being tended. A typical iob may involve the repair of a damaged section of ventilation duct, the replacement of a deteriorated machinery foundation, renewal of a portion of hull plate, or the replanking of a stove-in boat. Still another type of iob might entail the construction and installation of an entirely new piece of equip- ment, or perhaps a new piping system, authorized by the Bureau. Since the service of the Department is not limited to Destroyer types, and since no iob is too large or too small, the division is faced with a variety of tasks which challenge the imagination and ingenuity of each member. That they measure up to these tasks there can be no doubt, as a review of past performance and records will indicate. The members of the R-l Division also serve in another very vital capacity which cannot be overlooked. By virtue of their various trades, training, and experience, these men are assigned billets in Damage Control Repair Parties, which are as important in peace time as in war. Nygaard, R.L. Adams, E.J.
