DIVISICDN The main function of the Quartermaster Gang is to see that the ship is heading in the right direction, and at the right time. To this end they may be found topside at all hours of the day or night, taking navigational bearings or radar fixes. They also conduct daily gunnery exercises 1 such as shooting the Sun, Moon, or distant stars, to obtain.the ship's location by celestial navigation. The safe passage of the ship up a narrow channel or through crowded sealanes is the job of the Navigator, Lt. Beecher. He isably assisted by the quartermasters and Chief Ggdon in carefully plotting the ships position for ready reference by the Captain. At times fixes are needed every minute, and this requires much teamwork. Long before we leave for a new port, the men of N Division are hard at work preparing the courses and speeds to be followed. Their diligence has paid off as we have never anchored in the wrong port or run aground. McLeod, Brownell, Lt.
