R Division EMC A. L. Logan 6 SFC C. E. Stout The men of R Division perform many varied tasks, so many in fact, that they are almost too numerous to mention. R Division is responsible for gear in every space of the ship. The Division is made up of four gangs, the Shipfitters, and Damage Controlmen, Electricians, Inter Communications Electrician, and A Gang. The Shipfitters do welding, pipe-fitting, metal work, and instal- lations and mounting of equipment. The Damage Controlmen are responsible for the upkeep of damage control gear such as firehoses, pumps, OBA units, and NBC warfare items. The Electricians are responsible for distribution of electrical power throughout the ship. They keep the numerous motors, controllers, lights, coffee makers, and most all other electrical equipment in running order. Electricians also insure the electrical safety of portable electrical gear used by all hands. Sound powered phones and the gyro-compass are the main concern of the IC men. Also, the IC men handle the ship's movies lalways the best for the HANSONl, ship's entertainment system, keep the alarm systems working, and make sure the IIVIC is always in top shape. A Gang is another important group belonging to R Division. They are responsible for the cooling and heating aboard the ship. In addition, the men of A gang furnish compressed air, keep the motor whale boat running, keep the emergency diesels in running order, make sure the steering gear is in top operating order, and make sure there is always lots of hot water for those showers before liberty call. In short, on a ship that is older than many of the men of R Division, it is understandable that they may never be able to catch up with alll, the work there is to be done, but nevertheless, R Division can hack it. s .
