One of the most varied divisions of the ship, OC division supplies communications for the STODDARD. The Yeoman and Personnelmen who run the ship's office, the Radiomen who commu- nicate at sea, the Signalmen who hoist the flags and flash the light, all function as the voice of the command. The smartly returned flaghoist, flawless letter, ungarbled messageall mark the well-run ship. Thanks to these people, STODDARD ranks among the best. Another part of OC Division labors mightily to get the ship where she's going and to keep her happy and healthy while underway. The Hospital Corpsmen and the Postal Clerk work hand in glove to keep the ship's morale high. The Ouartermasters, star-gazers extra- ordinary, plot the ship along the way and keep her as close to schedule as humanly possible. Thanks to the efforts of these men, the dangers and loneliness of going to sea are reduced.
