Often called the shipyard within a ship, R Di- vision is responsible for maintenance which assures the ship of fulfilling her mission. The division is al- ways ready 24 hours a day to replace or repair defective equipment necessary for the ship's opera- tion or the crew's habitability, whether it be a stopped drain, burnt out light bulb, or malfunctioning air conditioner. The division is composed of three gangs: the Elec- tricians and IC men, and the Shipfitters and Damage Control men. The E gang maintains electrical equipment such as switch boards, main generators, interior communications, alarm systems, gyro, light- ing circuits and electrical visual communications de- vices as well as caring for and operating the motion picture projectors for the morale of the crew. The A gang keeps such auxiliary equipment as the refrigeration plant, low pressure steam system, gig engine, anchor windlass and boat winch in top shape. The SF gang keeps the hull and its fittings re- paired and are the builders or jack of all trades who make anything from storage bins to coffee cup racks. Although divided into three gangs, the word co- operation expresses the thought and spirit of R Di- vision among themselves and with the whole ship. Is that the smallest wrench you could find, Wheeler? Lessee, I should be able to get Perry Como on channel 2. I think we've found Uranium I ! ! And when you flip this switch, the ship stops.
