IC SHOP - IC2 Goforth, IC3 Campbell, IC3 Fleming Electrical Division is really two divisions in one - each required to perform its own diversified special- ties. Interior Communication Elec- tricians maintain, repair and install telephones and sound powered phones. In addition, the IC men have the important responsibility of maintaining and keeping the Navigational Gyro Compass in prop- er operating order. Somewhat unlike their counter- parts, the Electricianis Mates are responsible for maintenance and repair of electrical power and light- ing throughout the ship. These same men are often called upon to rig cables for supplying electricity from HECTOR's powerful generators to customer ships alongside. DIVISION CPO - EMC C. L.

FIRST LT. OFFICE YEOMAN PN3 Willey , . ' SHIP S BOATSWAIN CWO Roy A. Teal Many long hours are required of the Deck Force to maintain a smart and neat appearance of HECTOR's weatherdecks. Because of this factor and a variety of other responsibilities, the two divisions which comprise Deck have developed a sense of unity and teamwork. In port and underway watches, boat and gig maintenance and opera- tion, sea and anchor details and operation of the ship's two large cranes are just some of the jobs handled by deck. A large percentage of the non-rated persomiel reporting aboard HECTOR are assigned immediately to the Deck Force. As time passes, some of the new hands take the opportunity to choose and transfer to positions available in other divisions. Eventually, they work into jobs requiring increased responsibility. For this reason, deck serves another important function in allowing many personnel to evaluate before choosing among the many jobs available to one aboard ship. BM1 King
