DECK DEPARTMENT The Deck Department is responsible for almost anything and everything on the ship that is topside. It is the men of the deck force who have to be up that extra hour or so early each day to help keep FRANCIS MARION looking smart and functioning smart. The Deck Department is responsible for refueling and highlinc transfers; operating, stowing and loading of all boats, gunnery and firearms; and last, but by no means least, general maintainence of all topside spaces, which of course means using the good old chipping hammer and paint brush. The Deck Department if divided into five divisions and all topside spaces are their realm. First Di- vision is in charge of the entire forward portion of the ship wMch covers four hatches, seven boats, and the starboard quarterdeck. Second Division takes care of the after portion of the ship, the port quarterdeck, the helo deck, where over 1,000 helo landings have been made, and the incinerator. Third Division laiows more about the sides of the ship then they care too; it is the Painting Third who maintain the sides of the ship and is responsible for the sail and paint lockers. The Wyatt Earps of the sliip make up Fourth Division and are in charge of all gun mounts and firearms. The Fire Controlmen of this division operate, maintain and repair the fire control radars, and fire control systems. Fifth Division ranks supreme among the elite of the deck force, the Salty Fifth being responsible for the complete maintenance and operation of all boats while both in the water and out. From the Foc ' sle to the fantail, hard work from the Gentlemen of deck have helped to make FRAN- CIS MARION the outstanding ship she is. It you don ' t believe it, just ask any man on the deck force.
