CAboveJ HM2 Bratcher and HMI Osier petition the CNO to make every day wog day. 5 'gl' P. CAboveJThere she is again! Katrina is so cute, we couldn't stop taking pictures of her. lLeftJ That's not exactly the case for HMl Juanes. He's cute, too, we guess, but he has to do something interesting, likC walking through the pasSagC WHYS blindfolded for egress training, be- fore we take his picture. lRigl1fl We'rc not really sure what they'rC doing. but it looks like it hurts. USS Germantown's Medical and Dental Departments fshown above in Dubai, UAE, celebrating Christmasj have a lot going for them. For one thing. ifyou should ever happen to find yourself dying, gravely ill, or seri- ously injured, the people of Medical Department can help you. They are capable of providing all types of routine care including stitching up minor injuries and conducting physical examinations. They can arrange and provide transport to a larger medical facility when it is needed. Medical Department is also responsible for training the rest of us in first aid in addition to CPR certification for Germantown sailors who work with electricity. We may poke fun at them sometimes and run for the hills when they attack us with needles but the truth is: we sleep a little bit easier at night knowing we have the Navy s finest Medical Department. Germantown s Dental Department also has a lot going on. Our dentist LT Davis can perform most extensive dental procedures on board. That s not just cleanings and fillings. He can actually do root canals and wisdom teeth extractions underway. About the only things he can t do are give you braces and implant prosthetics.
