Warren E Division Officer Assistant R Division Officer Most people don't know what makes a ship move, other than the boilers generate steam, steam turns the engines, the engines turn the shafts with their screws and the screws drive the ship through the water. Sounds simple, doesn't it? Well, that is all most people need to know about how a ship is propelled, but here are the men who don't think it is that simple and who have to know a lot more than that about it. These are the men you don't often see on the main deck of a ship, because they are down below in the engine rooms and fire rooms working and sweating to keep the ship runningg supplying the things we so often take for granted like fresh water, electrical power and ventilation and heating, and at the same time keeping the shipready to answer all bells and hence ready to carry out all assignments. A discussion of the department wouldn't be complete without mentioning the three groups of repair personnel, the electricians, shipfitters, and A gang. These are the men who are responsible for keeping the ship supplied with power and interior communications: maintaining the ship's watertight integrityg. doing all the odd jobs of metal work which come up on a ship, and finally, keeping all the ship's auxiliary machinery in operating condition. If it's mechanical and isn't part of the main propulsion plant, these are the men who will keep it running. lt has been said that she isn't much for chow, and she isn't much for liberty, but with this crew of engineers working down below us, she really is a steamer.
