Kelly The Sierra-One division aboard ship is made up of storekeepers and disbursing clerks. The ordering and issuing of supplies and keeping of pay records are the chief responsibilities of this division, which is under the supervision of CHPCLK J. J. Kelly, Stores Officer and Division Officer, ENS P. D. Sullivan, Disbursing Officer, M.E. Hertenstein, SKC, and A. R. Bowman, L.P.O. The storerooms are broken down into two main groups. Forward G.S.K. is the main storeroom, where all office supplies are kept. In the forward storerooms you also have the line locker, paint storeroom, foul weather gear, dishes and silverware. Five men handle the job of making issues. The after G.S.K. storeroom stocks hardware, rags and aviation gear. Two men are in charge of issuing stock back there. There are two electronics storerooms, and two ordnance storerooms, which carry equipment needed for the guns. In the spare parts storeroom, which is staffed by two men, we carry the parts that may be needed in any machine or engine. The supply office is where all the ordering of stock is done. Records, such as the department budget and the ship ' s allotment and correspondence work, are handled here. Chief Hertenstein is in charge, and has eight men working under him. The disbursing office, under the supervision of Chief Ubaldi, is where the pay records are kept, allotments started and stopped, bonds taken out and pay rolls made up. That, in a nutshell, is Sierra-One division.
