CAMERA CATCHES EVERYDAY SCENE IN METALSMITH'S SHOP: THE TALK, THE CLEANING THE WORK AND THAT CUP OF COFFEE DC- FP- ME- SPELLS R-E-P A-I-R If it spells 'Qrepairfl it means R division. And all of those lettered rates above, the damage controlmen, the pipe fitters, and the metalsmiths make up perhaps the most varied group of craftsmen on the ship. The metalsmiths, for example, do everything from fancywork with light sheet metal to heavy steel work that weighs a ton, they weld and heat-treat metals. All pipings ystems-and there are many-are serviced by the pipefit- ters. y Damage Control, however, is the largest field of all. Woodwork is an integral part of their knowledge, but the job they do that affects more people on the ship is just plain keeping the the Lex afloat. LCDR H.R. RIDGE ENS. P.M. BARBA ENS. J.G.
