The Deck Department of any ship is the backbone of her functional seamanship operations. The same is true on ENTERPRISE. Boatswain ' s Mates are responsible for conducting key functions in traditional sailor ' s evolutions, such as Sea and Anchor Detail, refueling, rearming, replenishing, maintaining and running boats — the Captain ' s Gig, motor Whaleboat (lifeboat) and four utility boats, and for supplying and training bridge watchstanders. Whenever ENTERPRISE enters or leaves port. Deck takes care of mooring her to the pier, casting her loose, or dropping and heaving in the anchor. The boats that take the liberty party to the beach are manned by trained Boatswain ' s Mates. Whenever the supply of groceries or jet fuel gets low. Deck Department mans up Underway Replenishment stations and transfers the goods with skill and professionalism. From Reveille to Taps the Bos ' n pipe can be heard piping orders from the Bridge and Quarterdeck. The tradition of piping dates back to before 1492 when Columbus set sail. Deck supplies key personnel to man the bridge underway. Under the close supervision of the Boatswain ' s Mate of the Watch, Deck personnel stand helm, leehelm, lookout, lifeboat, and sponson watches. Boatswain ' s Mates run the ship ' s sail locker, where canvas and other materials are sewn into canopies and covers for equipment throughout the ship. Deck also operates the paint and Bos ' n Lockers and is responsible for issuing and controling paint and cleaning gear for the ship. Fancy work and knot tying are part of a Boatswain ' s Mate ' s craft, as well as the piping of honors in special ceremonies. Deck Department was extremely productive during SRA 83 before deployment, rehabing many interior spaces, sponsons, and preserving the ship ' s sides. FHigh scores were achieved by Deck during Refresher Training and the Operational Readiness Examination (ORE). The senior ORE observer commented that ENTERPRISE had the best CV Deck Department in the Pacific Fleet. Deck Department has continued to maintain high standards throughout the deployment and uphold the Deck tradition of taking up the slack and maintaining an even strain. LCDR L.J.
