FG Division Though one of the smaller divisions on the ship, FG Division is probably the most spread out of any of the divisions. They live in the compartment furtherest aft, muster forward of the turrets and man the highest and lowest spaces on the ship, the MK 37 Director and the gunnery firecontrol plotting rooms. Division personnel are responsible for maintaining and operating the three different firecontrol systems, that are used in solving gunnery firecontrol problems. During the cruise, FG Division successfully com- pleted shoots at targets on land, on the sea, and in the air. The Tabonnes Gunnery Range in the Philippines has many accurately placed pock-marks left by GALVESTON guns which were directed by FG Division computers and directors. A white E on the side of the MK 37 director is the award for outstanding performance in a competitive exercise. X.. s
