Want music? Want air conditioning? Scuttlebutt need repair? Need a bunk light? Spanner wrencli missing? These are just a few of the questions posed to this Jack-of-all-trades group - R Di- vision, Composed of Electricians, Damage Con- trolmen, IC Electricians, Shipfitters and Ma- chinery Repairmen, this group of men are in- volved in nearly every activity aboard LANSING. If ever, one word could be used to describe such an assortment of talent, surely it would have to be VERSATILITY, for theirs is the responsibility of maintaining and repairing the greatest variety of equipment on board. Faced with such an endless task does not deter this small group of skilled men though, as they have so capably proved in the past. Both the quality and quantity of work accomplished by this division has earned for them high praise and gratitude from every other division aboard. 15
