Third Division The men of the Third Division are care- takers of the FLINT ' S main cargo, ammunition. The division is made up of two different ratings, the Gunners Mate Guns, trained in the use of large and small caliber weapons and the Fire Control Technician, a combination electronics technician and radarman, to maintain and operate the ship ' s weapons computers. FLINT carries a lot of ammunition and it ' s up to Third Division to get that cargo from the replenishment stations to the holds. While automatic alarms constantly moni- tor temperature in the holds, they have to be backed up by Cargo Security Watches who make sure that cargo stays shored in place in any weather. In addition, the Gunners Mates are responsible for training the crew in the use of small arms, as well as caring for FLINT ' S four 3 50 caliber mounts and their associated fire control gear.

When that breech closes it can sling a three-inch shell more than 6 miles. (RIGHT) Well we got it out of there, so it has to go back in! Sometimes, the guns seem to have a mind of their own. 15
