'elf we canlt fix it welll build a new one!', A most appropriate motto for the R Division. The shipfitters, pipefitters and damage controlmen of the Repair Division are capable of repairing or fabricating all the many metal and wooden structures aboard DUBUQUE. Foremost among the divisionls varied responsibilities is damage control. Main- taining and testing the ship's damage con- trol and firefighting equipment along with training the ship's company in damage con- trol procedures is a never ending job. R Division is unexcelled in this vitally important field. R Division maintains a twenty-four hour watch in Damage Control Central along with two lower deck sounding and security patrols. These men are constantly on the alert for any fire or flooding hazards. Fire. prevention and protection and the control of damage is our most important product. ln addition, the Repair gang acts as submariners. Every time Set the Ballast Detail is passed, R Division swings into action to ballast down to whatever level necessary to operate with boats and amtracs off the Vietnamese coast. At their stations in ballast control and the various ballast stations, R Division men contributed their large share to the safe and successful back- loading of Marines in Operations Keystone Cardinal and Keystone Bluej ay. . , ,, M, . .,. ...Y .. .n,a,.f..f -,.,-...fa ' K ' , Nj , ' , 1, ' ,Q , L, 1.4 , 1, ri57.L--.-:,.:fi.13igYf-+gizv'-'JJi,s:4,r+f:1r:5?:3'..?,':f-2..t'1s' 1-9-1-Jw -af'-1--'s
