S-7 Access to necessary supplies can some- times be difficult for Supply Petty Officers on the CANOPUS and submarines. To help solve any supply problem. CANOPUS' Supply Support Center is on hand. S-7 is the first contact for submitting requisitions and requesting for assistance from the Supply Department. The Supply Support Center relays the status of material ordered that is not stocked on the ship to those in need. The CANOPUS requires a thorough and detailed effort from the Storekeepers of S-7 Division. These men must keep up with the supply demands of as many as five ships at a time. Theirs is a valuable service and their efforts are best seen when everyone has the right materials to do his job with. l l 4
