01 Division Whoever said that logistics ships really don ' t have a CIC? Obviously someone who ' s never stood a twenty hour watch making sure there are no merchants charging over the horizon, hell- bent on driving right between us and who- ever is alongside. The best and the proudest on the wa- terfront, CANISTEO ' s operations specialists have been the very heart of the Can-do Take Charge! attitude. In the past year they have organized and executed each of CANISTEO ' s rendezvous, finding everything from drug-laden sailboats to hundred-foot minesweepers in twenty-foot seas, to MSC tankers in crowded Mediterranean traffic lanes. They act as the eyes and ears of the ship, piloting us through hazardous waters, searching for things that would go bump in the night. And how ' bout that tranquil Med cruise? What comes after skunk ZZ anyway? Stores Division (S-1) The storekeeper ' s provide complete lo- gistic support for the material needs of the CANISTEO and, in a deployed environment, of the battlegroup as well. Storekeepers, alias Stores or Keys, are responsible for the proper re ceipt, ex- penditure and accounting of fuels, SAC-224 materials, and onboard stocks. The SK ' s pride themselves for achieving customer satisfaction through outstanding service relations with all shipboard divisions, and they know that at one time or another even the lowest ranking seaman will come to a storekeeper for materials. The most frustrating thing about being a storekeeper is that their shipmates truly don ' t understand what goes on behind the scenes and how difficult it is to maintain a Blue E division with superior standards of excellence in repair parts management.
