A E DIVISION Flexible and versatile is an accurate descrip- tion of Fanning ' s Auxiliary Electrical Divi- sion. A-gang is challenged with a myriad of duties from providing emergency ship ' s power in the event of an engineering casualty to en- suring that the crew is kept cool during the often scorching Middle East days. Additional- ly, they support the Air Detachment with Grapes to refuel the helicopter. Electrical Division is charged with electri- cal power generation and distribution of our three 750 kilowatt generators. E Division per- forms electrical safety testing, maintains light- ing and wiring, as well as overhauls and main- tains all electrical gear on board.

They take care of the gyro compass, pitsword, wind speed and direction indicators, and the IMC. ENS Fudge and ENC (SW) Harvey run A- Gang.

R DIVISION At sea, hundreds of miles from land, who do you call when you need a plumber? Or a repair part that ' s not carried onboard? Or when there ' s a fire? R Division is on call 24 hours a day for these and other services. The HT ' s MR ' s, and DCs, perform three indispensable functions — shipfitting, fabrication of ma- chinery parts, and damage control. Hull Technicians and Damage Controlmen are the Navy ' s insurance against disaster. They are all specially trained to fight fires, control flooding, and contain damage. Under the ex- pert supervision of LTjg Spurlock and DCC(SW) Ziegler, they are responsible for training inport and at-sea fire parties and res- cue and assistance teams through intensive, regular drills. The DCs also oversee the divi- sional damage control personnel in the main- tenance of essential damage control equipment so that emergency equipment is ready and fully operational when needed. MRl Lascano and his lathe provide direct support of other departmental repair jobs. He fabricates and manufactures repair parts for a wide assortment of machinery and equipment. He also does engraving for signs and plaques. Finally, as shipfitters, the HT ' s do repair work on nearly any type of structure, piping, and sanitation system. Head backed up? HTFN Brahier can fix it, he ' s got the ultimate set of tools! I. IJC. Kenneth R. Spurlock Damage Control Assistant Ukiah, CA HTFA Richard L. Brahier Hurst, TX HTl John E.
