ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT . Il ll The Engineering Department proudly displays the Red MEN on llle Offer Slack' Thls E mol only Shows the excellence of the department, but reflects the overa I 1 1 the finest group of sailormen ever to assemble into a tlghting unit. Through yhis will fo do G igb Well Done no single casulty could prevent the ship from meeting its Il 'nitiative enthusiasm and highly competitive spirit of committments. d I 086 705 allons of fuel oil, and distilled I,082,234 During this cruise, we steamed 3I,602 miles, burne , , Q , , . ll ll gallons of water. These facts alone prove that the Engineering Department is a Can Do outfit. No other ship in our division can boast these facts. Water hours were never established even though our boilers used over 50 percent of the meager ration the evaporators produce. The generators never ceased to twine, the boilers never ceased to generate steam, and the engines never failed to answer any bell received. The gyro always pointed north, the rudder always trailed behind, and the shaft locking device was left at SRF, Yokosuka. E Repair work was accomlished as soon as a repair iob existed. The shipfitters repaired everything from closets to desks, the repairmen overhouled valves of any size, and the electricians handled every thing from light bulbs to rewiring the electric systems in the ship's boats. I With this outstanding spirit, the Engineering Department remains the best in the Division, the best in the Squadron, and the best in the Fleet. Our return to Pearl will be undertaken with the same Zeal and enthusiasm that kept us steaming for five months in WESTPAC.
