' B ' DIVISION Boiler Technicians operate propulsion boilers and associat- ed equipment in the fireroom. Some selected Boiler Techs are designated oil and water kings, who handle the testing and transferring of fuel and water on the ship. The primary and most important function in the fireroom is to provide steam to the main engines which in turn propels the ship through the water. The BTs are a rare breed of men, work- ing long hours in temperatures exceeding lOCT . Some of the various nicknames these men have earned; BLACK GANG , BLACKSHOE ' , SNIPE , HOLE SNIPE ' , are all from days of coal burners. From then until now the Boiler Technicians always get the job done. If BTC Fa u nee B-Division Chief Petty Officer - ■f!
