Badoeng Strait (CVE 116) - Naval Cruise Book

Page 88 text:

The Foxey Ones are charged with the responsibility of maintenance and partial opera- tion of the ship ' s fourteen 40 MM mounts and fire control radar. The division, which is the largest in the gunnery department, consists of both gunner ' s mates and fire control technicians. The men are constantly at work on the quads, load- ing machine and radar directors preparing for that day when the sounding of general quarters ' ' will not be a drill and their efforts will be amply appreciated. The Fox men also have the task of keeping custody of the ship ' s armory of small arms and maintaining ready service rooms and maga- zines throughout the ship. Thus the Foxey Ones are never wanting for work to do, and are firmly established as an important link in the ship ' s team. Szenasy and Renz tune up the fire control radar. An ammo loading and passing drill is held by Anderson (D. L), Bodiker, Jackson and Anderson (H. E.). I Chief Kulczynski and Piche sort their way through a maze of circuits in working on a transmitter- receiver of a fire control radar.
