AB-IJIVISIUN The men of this Division are responsible for keeping the boat engines in shape so that the troops and vehicles will get to the beach. To make doubly sure of this, they ride the boats with them. When the Beachhead is established, the time has come to repair the damage to the engines and get them ready for another day. The men overhaul the engines completely at times besides making numerous minor repairs. The lighter side ot their duty is getting the crew on liberty.
