..........12 t e me - ngineering M 8. B Divisions - These divisions are made up of two rates. Stated in the simplest way, the Boilermen make the steam and the Machinist's Mates utilize it to provide the ship with pqwer. These men in M and B Divisions operate and maintain the boil chinery which supply steam to the main engines, turbo-generators and heating systems. Their domains are the fire and engine rooms where, among a complicated assortment of gquges and valves, they keep constant watch on vital pressures and temperatures. Their iobs, although virtually unknown to the average seaman, are second to none in importance. R Division - This is perhaps the most diversified division on the ship. lt consists of five different rates: Pipefitters, Metalsmiths, Damage Controlmen, Enginemen and Machin- ery Repairmen. These are the men who must ensure the watertight integrity of WILLIAM V. PRATT.

E Division - Electrician's Mates and I.C. Electricians constitute this division. They are responsible for the ship's service generators and all electrical power and lighting. They are further responsible for the upkeep of the many intraship communications systems and the ship's gyro compass. Both of these rates require much schooling and on-the-iob training in order to be really effective. gig Q5 ' A-31.
