OE Division The OE Division is comprised ofa group of highly skilled Electronic Technicians, a handful of seaman, and a yeoman. This group is under the direction of LCDR Carl D. BUSH, the EMO, and LTIG William E. DASINGER, the Division Officer. The Division's primary task is the repair of equip- ment such as the air and surface search radars, re- peaters, radio receivers and transmitters, and navi- gational aids such as Tacan, Loran, and a fathometer. i Although repair is their major concern, they are involved in a constant and vigorous program of main- tenance Which is carried out at all times. During upkeep periods in port this program is stepped up considerably to ensure that the equipment is at the peak performance level which a ship of GALVES- TON,s caliber and importance in Heet operations demands. One of the most noteworthy incidents of the cruise was the marathon of the missing messagesi' in which OE Division scored a decisive victory and celebrated the occasion by consuming a steak dinner. The Radio Officer was only too glad to foot the bill of Y17,960. Although the work load does not allow much time for participation in the inter-division sports competi- tion, OE fought its way to the finals in Deck Tennis and walked away with the enlisted championship in the Pinochle Tournament. 111A
