Through his skilllul exercises and expert guidance he has kept us in battle readiness. ' Center: YVhether it be iced tea in general mess or an ice pack for some unfortunate in the sick bay, C. H. Hill, FA and R. Masi, FA, keep our ice plant going twenty-four hours every day ol' the year. Upper Right: Whether it be air ejection mechanism on guns, or blowing up the tires. on aircraft, the air compressors must be constantly tended and cared for. Kelley, VV. E., MM3, is always at hand to insure their proper function. Lower Left: No Air O :eration can be erfect without ca able ex Jerts such as Hubbell, K.

Lower Middle: To Keep Aircraft in operation, many times the necessary parts must be manufactured while the ship is under- way. A machine-shop, using such equipment as Knight, L.. FN, is shown calipering It piece of big stock, is essential. i ' Lower Right: Even Though the power plants are always kept in excellent condition, there is maybe at some time a call for emer- gency equipment. VVhether it be generators or emergency fire pumps. Swanitz. R. F., MM2, is an expert. THE Ai DIVISION fauxiliary divisionj of the engineer- ing lorce has one of the most important, yet most thank- less jobs on the ship.
