.JH .Jr T 495' Providing sustenance for the crew. ervice is our Job l I ! Whatever the hour of day or night, there were always some supply personnel, whether bakers, laundrymen or storekeepers, busy performing those many essential services usually taken for granted until fortune intervened and temporarily prevented their accomplishment. The work of the storekeep- ers, for example, was particularly vital to the ship's operations, for each of the departments depended on them for parts support for their various equipments. But while these SKS took partial responsibility for the ship's oper- ating efficiency at sea, the dispursing clerks deserve almost full responsibility for having made possible the crew's steaming ef- ficiency in port. Fortunately, not all of the 8350,000 paid out by the DKs added to the ' 'gold flow. 816,000 found its way back via the ship's store, while the coke machine alone swallowed some 55,000 nickels and dispensed almost as many drinks.

The cooks and bakers notionly kept the insti- tutionalized gripes down to .a dull roar, but managed to keep us Well nourished. And. on such special occasions as Thanksgiving and Christmas they produced exquisite feasts which Were the real measure of their skills and talents. With a few exceptions arising chiefly from equipment failures., the laundrymen kept the washer, drier and the button smasher operating 24 hours a day. Some mention too should be made of the stewards, for they versatility they consistently displayed in the preparation of certain foods is in a Way representative of the versatility of the entire supply department. Not only did they prove accomplished in the preparation of foods from many different lands, but they demon- strated conclusively that there are at least 87 differ- GHK ways of preparing rice, not counting boiling of course.
