'wav-w f ' CAPT .I. SAWYER IST LT J. BERGQUIST K OLDER THAN THE NAVY ITSELF IS THE HISTORY OF SEA- GOING MARINES WHO SERVED ON THE AMERICAN VESSEL ENTERPRISE IN JULY 1775. ODDLY, MARINES' SHIPBOARD DUTIES HAVE CHANGED LITTLE FROM THEN 'TIL NOW. ESSEX MARINES CONTINUE TO STAND SENTRY DUTY, RUN THE SHIP'S BRIG, MAN ONE OF THE GUNS, FORM THE NU- CLEUS OF THE LANDING PARTY AND PROVIDE ORDERLIES FOR THE CAPTAIN AND EXECUTIVE OFFICER. BASICALLY INFANTRYMEN AND OUT OF THEIR HABITAT WHEN EM- BARKED THEY MUST MAINTAIN PROFICIENCY IN THE TOOLS OF THEIR TRADE, THE BASIC SUBJECTS ALL MARINES LEARN IN BOOT CAMP-WEAPONRY, TACTICS, AMPHIBIOUS OPERA- TIONS, DRILL AND PHYSICAL CONDITIONING. DAILY TRAIN- ING EXERCISES ENABLE ESSEX MARINES TO MAINTAIN THEIR SKILLS AND READINESS. 5 EP. f f g -m f 5-W- M, 1 - - 1 - - I I I - - If A .V ' Q 1s1'sG1' v.BARL0w :AA ' , il ' v SSGT F-Al-ENDER f 2551 SSGTH.CARTER,J V, ,,ff H , H 1- . .t ssG1'J.LAUEn , 1 a CPLD.BEA'l'I'Y PFcE.cHAnEs1',.m.

Ii I G-4 DIVISION A rv. I. i WO1 C.J. BROUSSARD I G-4 DIVISION PERSONNEL HAVE THE DUAL ROLE OF MAIN- TAINING THE SHIP'S SIDES AND FURNISHING THE BALANCE OF THE DECK FORCE WITH THE TOOLS REQUISITE TO THEIR FUNCTIONS. THE ACTUAL SIDE CLEANING IS PERFORMED BY OTHER WEAPONS PERSONNEL BUT THEIR SAFETY WHILE OVER THE SIDE IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE MEN OF G-4 WHO RIG THE PLATFORMS, STAGES AND NETS AND MAINTAIN THE LIFE JACKETS USED BY THE SIDECLEANERS. THE SUPPLY FUNCTION IS ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH G-4'S MAIN- TENANCE OF THE BOATSWAIN LOCKER, LINE LOCKER, PAINT LOCKER AND SAIL LOCKER. THE SPECTRUM OF THE MA- TERIALS AND SERVICES SUPPLIED TO THE OTHER DECK DI- VISIONS RANGES FROM THE HAND BRAIDED CANVAS FOR THE QUARTERDECK TO THE SEVEN INCH NYLON MOORING LINES. l ll :wi r - M ,, - WM.- ,f',s:,. .4 In .uv . .av X Rim W W nv- ..- W' 7 l-,.....
