Chandeleur (AV 10) - Naval Cruise Book

f A DIVISION Palatable water for drinking, cooking, laundry and showers must be produced to the tune of 35,000 gallons daily from the sea water by the Evap- orator Gang of A Division— and the CHANDY LOU is noted for being a clean ship. An enormous amount of food must be stored aboard and thanks to the Supply Department, we have it. However, nearly 30 per cent of that food requires refrigeration and herein lies the duty of the A Division ' s refrig- erator gang. They must keep enough food chilled or frozen to ordinarily supply a whole city block of families with refrigerated food for a period of three months! And they must be on the job too, for spoilage would be dis- astrous. One item has its advan tages however — this gang also keeps the refrigeration units in order in the Gedunk Stand or soda fountain, and ice cream, you know, must be tested. The small boats ' engines must be continually kept in operation and this calls for repairs and overhaul jobs. Often with no spares on hand our boat repair crew must perforce resort to cannibalism of other engines, yet often the parts have to be manufactured by our machine shop gang, A Division. When a vital part for a PBM seaplane is needed by the Air Department and no spares are available the machine shop gang is called upon to manufacture those parts.
