The Supply Department may best be thought of as the Service Department. No less than six different rates com- prise the S Division, SK's, SH's, CS's, SD's, HM's and DK's. The Storekeepers from the nucleus of the ship's replenish- ment team. They are responsible for the ordering, receiving, stowage, issuing and accounting for all stores and repair parts. ln addition, they maintain 22 storerooms in A-l condition. The Commissary men are responsible for putting chow on the line, seven days a week, which in a year's times comes to over 42,000 meals being eaten by the men of the McCain. ln addition they are responsible for the stowage and maintenance of 9 provision storerooms. The Ship's Servicemen operate the ship's laundry around the clock to keep the men of the McCain looking sharp. The barbershop and ship's store also come under the Ship's Servicemen. The Steward group is responsible for the preparation and service of food in the wardroom, and between meals must maintain all the spaces designated as Officer's Country. The Disbursing Clerks maintains all the pay records aboard ship, compute all the travel allow- ance, handles over 530,000 a month but never have any money of their own. The Hospital Corpsmen pass out APC's and anxiously await the next mass innoculation. Whenever business is a little slow he is usually his own best customer. Whenever S Division can't find anything else to do they give the deck apes a handiin handling lines. --- ' fFront row left to rightpz Griffin, R.L., Hudnell, W.C., LTJG R.J.
