, W M V, , I H l . . , K M DI VISIO The men of M Division, sometimes called Snipes, keep the PINE ISLAND underway. Twenty-four hours a day the steam made in the firerooms drives gen- erators to light the ship, run auxiliary machinery, and furnish many of the com- forts often taken for granted. The engine- rooms are truly the source of the ship's lifeblood. In order to keep the machinery oper- ating efficiently, the men of M Division are engaged daily in standing auxiliary watches and repairing and cleaning in the two enginerooms and firerooms. All-'in- all, the job of keeping the ship alive is a complex problem requiring the services of men working in hot spaces, practicing specialized rates. I W 'f-M.
