Second Division Second Division is much like First in that they are known for their adept handling of the lines used for mooring CANOPUS and the submarines. Second Division also maintains a Bosun Locker and is responsible for preserva- tion of the weather decks, the touch that keeps CANOPUS looking good. These Boatswain's Mates can be found with a paint brush, swab, grinder, or chipping hammer in hand, doing what Boatswain's Mates are supposed to do.

5' kH,W,y,, ll iw Third Division ,,,,, ,, CANOPUS has six cranes for moving cargo and missiles to and from the submarines. And, like every other ship in the Navy, We have numerous small boats. The Boatswain's Mates of Third Division are responsible for the safe operation of these cranes and boats. They must safely move tons of weapons and supplies to the submarines on a daily basis and if CANOPUS visits a port where she must anchor out, the coxswains provide transportation to the docks.
