S DIVISION The S (for Salty!) Division numbering some ninety-odd men consists of four distinct groups ; namely, Storekeepers, Ships Service Men, Cooks and Bakers, and the Stewards ' Branch. Let ' s take a quick look at the job done by each of these. To the Storekeepers goes the credit for providing, storing, and issuing (You gotta have a chit!) all material aboard with the exception of ordnance and medical supplies. Everything from skivvies and chewing gum to manila line and shackles, and on to PBM engines and tail turrets, is procured, stocked and finally issued. Besides our General Service Storekeepers, we have a couple of war-born offspring— Aviation and Disbursing Storekeep- ers. These men are specialists who do just what their ratings indicate handle the aviation stores and pay accounts for the ship and squadrons. The second group are the Ship ' s-service Men. These are the fellows that help make life as pleasant as possible by furnishing free haircuts, free weekly laundry service, and tailoring, and the now famous gedunks. The boys have done a real job and our hats, both round and flat, are off to them. Here ' s our third bunch. The Galley Gang. When it comes to putting out the chow, the Mighty C is right in there with the best. Navy chow has long been the envy of the dog-faces and gyrenes, and our Sick Bay hasn ' t accepted a case of an under-nourished Ghandy-Lou sailor yet. Ou Bakers take a justifiable pride in their products — and whether it be bread, pie, cake or doughnuts— it ' s always 4.0. And do you remember those Thanks- giving and Christmas dinners? Hubba, hubba, hubba! Summing it all up, it will be a cold day in Kossol when our sailors don ' t sweat out the chow line. Now for the final group of boys. All of these are on the solid side; a bunch of groovy cats who come from Harlem, Birmingham, and Central Ave.; and can hardly wait until they get back— to show jodie what a real dusky sailor can do. These boys have cooked, baked, and served chow for the gold braid. They have taken care of the Cabin, Wardroom, Warrant, and Cigar Messes. And, too, they have kept the officers ' rooms neat, clean, and (almost) free of Cocky and his buddies. We are all proud to say, It ' s been nice having you for a shipmate, boy, and maybe the next time we meet you ' ll be wearing a real zoot-suit and knee-length chain! Well, that ' s about it. And anytime you want a horizontal stabilizer, late chow, a double gedunk, special money, or even some mellow boogie- woogie — look us up! We are always glad to serve. r
