EX DIVISION The EX Division consist primarily of yeomcn and personnelmen, besides which there are the printers, and the men of the master-at-arms force. The yeomen and personnelmen perform clerical work in the Captain's Ofhce, the Personnel Office, Library, Education' Office, and the Legal Office. Their duties include typing official letters and reports, routing incoming classified and un- classified mail, filling all types of instructions and correspondence, and maintaining the records of commissioned and enlisted personnel. The printers do all the mimeographing and printing that is accomplished on board. Their efforts help make possible the distribution of the daily news on board, the printing of departmental organization and regulations, and the manu- facture of various forms. The master-at-arms force is the police force of the community that is the ship. Their duties include maintaing good order and discipline throughout the ship, taking custody of prisoners, assisting at Captain's Mast and courts-martial, and leading inspection parties through the ship. LTJG W. G. Gook, CHSCLK E. L. Scoggins and CHSCLK H. VV. Jarvis supervise this Division.

N DIVISION The NH Division includes 25 quartermasters, buglers, photographers, aerograph- ers, and strikers for these rates, with LTJG M. V. Samuel the Division Oflicer. We all have heard the buglers. Perhaps there is no pleasure in hearing the bugler around reveille, but we Wait eagerly for him to sound liberty call, and We stand reverently before church call. Part of the Work of the photographers is scattered throughout this book. In addition, Navy photographers record accidents and action with the enemy for later study and analysis. Also, their Work is included in news releases made by the Navy Department to keep the public informed of the activities of its Fleets. Aerographers collect information regarding the Weather in adjacent areas. From the information collected the aerographer can make a forecast of the Weather to be expected. With such weather forecasts and information, the Captain can better choose a course to avoid h 4 ' eavy Weathei or a typhoon, and the commander ofa carrier task force can make plans for operation of aircraft. h Most of the men of the N Division are quartermasters. They are the ones who e p the Navigator determine the ships position, and maintain a plot on the chart so that the ship Will be kept on the proper course. The duties of the quartermaster include correcting charts, Winding and setting the ship's clocks, maintaining a record of incidents of the Watch from which the ship's log is prepared, and rendering assist- ance to the OOD in any Way required.

CR DIVISION The CR Division is often referred to as the brain center of the ship. The 50 radiomen, telemen and strikers in this division must keep a constant, alert, watch and guard over the various wave lengths that bring to the ship its orders and instructions. Modern navies find that radio communications must be constant and must be accurate if adequate intelligence over ships movements is to be maintained. With LTJG E. P. Schwartz as the Division Officer, CR Division has four JOs: LTJG L. J. Keating, ENS R. J. Lindstrom, ENS D. M. Bohrer and ENS R. M. Redding. All messages to and from the ship by morse code or teletype are handled this division. In addition to strictly oflicial messages CR Division receives the news of the world, confidential health and welfare dispatches from the American Red Cross and the personal telegrams sent to a crew member telling, for example, that it's a pound 8 ounce girl!

E., Harris, C. R., Morton, J. T., Pedigo, J. M., Karnoski, EJ T., LVVHGS, Ca V A t CS DIVISION For many generations, admirals have maneuvered their fleets and controlled their ships by means of Visual signals. Because of the widespread use of ultra-high frequ- ency, short range, voice radio circuits for maneuvering task forces, some people may think that the day of the signalman has passed, but this is not true. Today the signal- man's skills are just as important as ever, and are used very nearly as much. There is less chance of a tactical signal being misunderstood, and receipt of it is more posi- tive if it is sent by flag hoist instead of radio. The probability of a message being intercepted by an enemy is much smaller if it is sent by ilashing light, which can be seen from only a few miles, and usually from only one direction, than if it is sent by radio, which might be heard hundreds of miles away in any direction. With ENS M. E. Shumway the Division Officer, and ENS J. R. Darrow the Junior Division Officer, this group of quartermasters of the CS Division accomplishes the visual signalling for the 'ship by flag hoist, flashing light, and semaphore. In port, it is they who observe carefully the movements of ships and boats in the harbor, so they can alert the officer-of-the-deck to the arrival or passage of a senior officer in order that proper honors may be rendered. 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 11 1 '1 1 1 1 1 11 11, 1. 11 11 11 11 1 11 11 1i1 13 1 1 11 1 1, 11 11 1 1 1 1 111 1.

K DIVISION K Division is made up of radarmen radarmen strikers and one veom Th , . , p an. e rating specialty of radarman came into being during VVorld War II, when radar equip- ment Was first installed in ships. A competent radarman is a versatile individual. Among other duties he Watches a radar sco e l t p , p o s contacts, determines the ship's position by radar navigation when near land, Works maneuvering board problems, and operates voice radio circuits. He perform these duties in Combat Information Center. The function of the officers and men on Watch in CIC is to collect information ffrom such sources as the radar equipment radio circuits operation o d , , r ersh and dis- play, evaluate, and disseminate that information to those who can use the information. CIC personnel Work to assist the officer-of-the-deck or the Captain to maneuver the ship, to assist the gunnery department to find and hit the target, to help keep the em- barked admiral informed of the tactical siuation, and to exchange information with the CIC's of other ships in company.

The LOS ANGELES uses electronics equipment for communications fradiol, navigation floranj, detecting the presence of other ships and aircraft fradarj, and for assistance in identifying friendly aircraft KIFFJ. Equipment installed in the LOS ANGELES is Worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, but itwould be of no value if it were in- operative. The Electronics Technicians of the T Division are the men responsible for the maintenance of all the installed electronics equipment, except the fire-control radars. The are the m h ' ' ' ' ' ' y en W o iespond piomptly, intelligently and eneigetically, When someone says, The air search radar doesn't work. Fix it! Then the ET must test various components of the equipment, to discover Why it doesn't Work, and then repair it. The Work calls for intelligence, training, patience, and ingenuity. Nearly all of the Electronics Technicians on board are graduates of a nine or ten month ET school. , The Navy accepts as candidates for the school only those men who earned exceptionally high marks on the classification tests that are given every recruit.

Rough seas and high winds provide the only rest from the in ' any tasks completed daily by these men. The list of details that the Fiist ' l . ' is ca led upon to complete includes the various sea and in port watches, manning the starboard anchor and sounding chains, tending the bow line in mooring and providing the crew for the No. 1 30 foot motor launch. The constant battle between the elements of rust, sea, dust and routine maintainance keeps this division, as all others, fully occupied.

They will be found employed in tasks ranging from OOD Messenger to wrestling with the 96 pound links of anchor chain during mooring operations. Although slightly aft of their frame jurisdiction the forward tanker and destroyer fuelingnstations are manned jointly by the First and Second divisions. No evolution in the forward half of the ship is by passed by the Second. Turret TWO sitting on its high barbette not only provides the source of some mighty fine shooting, but supplies high vantage points for such seaman like evolu- tions as high line transfers rearming and provisioning the ship. These men know a full days work every day. U WS X, X Q? 2, J 6 P5 9514 f f! fy? QW. 5 V, -v f, Xi. , X 4 ,X xv Q A05 'x f 'X Front row, left toright: Ratliff, C. R., Vfeilham, D. B., Spencer, G.

Frame 141, now nearly as famous a boundary as the 38th parallel, separates the Third Division from the Sixth and Seventh. Turret THREE firmly anchored just forward of this famous line houses the entire division during general quarters and condition II watches. The Third Division has a vastness of details unheard of elsewhere. From rigging and manning the after destroyer fueling station and the replenishing stations on either side of Turret THREE to playing YoYo with the helicopter and small boats this gang of heave-around sailors puts in some long days. The hanger space CFibber McGee's closet on the Los Angelesl is the catch all for any odd piece of material or gear that requires stowage. A normal clay in port involves rigging at least one boat boom in or out, handling 2O+30 tons of stores with the aviation crane, hoisting boats and running No. 3 motor launch. All this in addition to drills and normal routine. . ' Burial al: sea c Adams, XV. H. Deckard, H. C, Koering, A. XV. Aurand, R. W. Dickson, C. E. Lake, L. XV. BHKGF, J- B- Dixon, L.

'Forward high line stations provide Norwegian Steam. commonly called man power, for all replenish- ing evolutions forward, and manning No. 2 lifeboat, in additional to the endless hours spent scrubbing and shining the quarterdeck area. Brightwork polish by the gallon is used keeping the polished fittings bright and clean. This high caliber division maintains the foremast and its rigging in a high state of preservation. A great deal of the division's work is spread out in the form of many below deck spaces. The neat seamanlike spaces in the forward superstructure and the well kept aspect of the port side of the 01 level are living tribute to many hours of hard work put in daily. The Fourth has a touch of glamour in manning and maintaining the Captain's gig. A. E. i, H. L. J - --nu U Adair, N, G, Cummings, D. E. i Jayne, B, R. Shannon, C. D. Allred, D, R. Deal, P. L.

The constant plead of the motherly boatswainsmates eagerly enticing their men on to greater acclaim in their battle against rust and corrosion is justas common in the Sixth as elsewhere. The Pea Shooter battery is a tough bunch of working sailors. Long hours in open gun mounts separated by grinding days on deck have failed to wear out this energetic crew. Working parties, details, man power and cleaning stations are routineevolutions. On rare occasions a wire high line is rigged in the center of their domain, on that day the Sixth earns its pay-plus. Hard working, energetic-the Scrappy Sixth operates the No. 4 30 foot motor launch and the many ammunition trains accompanying their 3 batteries. I f. I I l I 1 l i I i I I Ii.

D. 7th DIVISION Competing with the Sixth for honors in the 3 batteries the Slugging Seventh Division rules the roost on the starboard side of the ship. Numbering well over a hundred able bodies this Division can stand up proudy as one of the work horses of the ship. The stations manned by the Seventh Division are similar to those of the Sixth except that their high line station gets a Workout frequently. 0n one recent occasion, under darken ship conditions, 12 men were transferred aboard from a tanker by high line in the same record time as a similar evolution would require during the day. The usual contest between the ship and the elements goes on in the Seventh, as all over the ship, employing a large number of men daily in the war of rust and paint. All evolutions draw heavily on this part of the ship, long blue lines of box carriers and projectile packers track the route to the stowage points all the while the sailors game of horseplay is evident. Hard working, agressive and Slugging the Seventh rides it out. s 1 N in ' -mr. Divine Services in thc llangzu' space Front row, left to right: Linden, G. E., Murphy, D. VV., Nihart, R. F., White, T.

E. l 2 2 F DIVISICN Fire Control is the term used by the Navy to describe the many activities involved in aiming the guns. The problem is complicated by the target's motion, the movement of our own ship through the water, and the rolling and pitching of the ship. With LT J. G. Wilson as Division Officer, Fox Division is made up of almost 100 fire-control teclmicians and strkers. Assisting with divisional duties are LTJG J. A. Newpher, LTJG J. L. Norris and CHGUN C. E. Boxell. F Division is responsible for the maintenance of all the fire-control radars, gun directors, computers, range-keepers, optical range Enders, and synchro systems that are used to position the guns automatically after a solution of the target's course and speed has been developed in a computer or range-keeper. Men of the Fox Division stand condition watches and man general quarters stations at the equipment that is their responsibility for maintenance. The nerve center of the gunnery installation is the plotting room, Main Battery Plot for the eight inch riiies, and Sky Plot for the anti-aircraft batteries. Fox Division also includes the gunners mates who 'work in the armory under CHGUN L. A. Olmsted. Y-.1 I . ,. 'Q 'i . .. .l Q i 'I F 'Y -. P l l . l 1 l l -Xxltfs X . Y-'.lssYAs-lifl N .os N .

The Steam Heat Gang attempts to regulate the heating throughout the ship to everyones pleasure as well as the maintenance of the anchor windlass and after steering engine. The Internal Combustion Gang maintains and repairs the engines of the motor launches and boats. In addition they are responsible for the operation and mainte- nance of the forward and after emergency diesel engines. The Refrigeration Gang provides for the unkeep of the Gedunk Stand and the numerous scuttlebuts in addition to refrigeration storage boxes and the air conditioning units in the more vulnerable spaces of the ship. The Machine Shop Repair Gang is emciently manned to .handle any repair job within the scope of their machinery, and they often encompass any and all departments aboard ship. And there are the Log Room or Engineering Yeomen. The unsung heroes who must expedite the clerical and technical work of the whole Engineering Department. The ABLE Division has 47 enlisted personnel and two oflicers, LTJG R. C. Frodigh, and ENS, L. L. Maurice.

M DIVISION The M Division is composed of 56 of the Navy's finest machinist mates with LTJG J. F. Vant its Division Officer and CHMACH H. H. Puppe serving as Station and Junior Division Oflicer. The primary function of the M Division is the operation, maintenance and re- pair of the main engines and associated auxiliary machinery. Another important function of MIKE Division is the control of the ship's eva- porators which produce all of the ship's Water. This includes all boiler feed water plus the potable Water for everyday use. The quality of the Work performed by these men is shown by the excellent opera- tion of the machinery which can at times be temperamental after many months of hard steaming. A A Q W x ,3 Ae, T.

Today's modern boilerman, still the backbone of any steam plant, is a highly specialized man versed in the scientific operation and main- tenance of modern high pressure and high temperature steam generators. Aboard this ship the B Division, with its 85 enlisted men, is divided into four gangs in order to carry out the division responsibilities. The first and major gang is the iireroom gang which is responsible for the efficient operation of the four flrerooms, boilers, and associated auxiliary machinery. The second gang, known as the Oil Kings , is charged with the stowage and transfer of fuel oil and water. They also analyze feed water to control its chemical properties and make such daily tests of fresh water as to insure its potability. The third gang consisting of boiler repairmen is used to perform major repairs to the boilers. . The fourth gang, actually machinist mates, constitutes the fireroom repair gang whois primary duty is the operation and maintenance of the four turbo-generators and the six air compressors together with all the turbine pumps found in the iirerooms. I The work and efforts of these four gangs are coordinated by ENS A. F. De Negri Boiler and Division Oflicer and MACH F. Vodopich Division Junior and Station Officer. x PJZZZX yi?

E DIVISION Almost every function of operating the ship toutside of the main propulsion plantj depends upon electrical power: moving, controlling, and firing the guns, hoisting ele- vators and anchors, turning the rudder, running the pumps, blowers, saws, lathesg operating the auxiliary machinery and the interior communications, fire fighting, light- ing, and radio systems. The ship, like a human body, has nerves or electric cables running from the top of the mast to the bilges, and from the bow to the stern. The maintainance of these cables and the apparatus attached is the primary function of the E Division. ENS M. D. Flynn, the Division Officer, and CHELEC L. H. Mclntire, the Electrician and Station Officer, supervise and control the maintenance and repair demanded of the 61 men in the Division. Getting a drink Front row, left to right: Faciane, C.

R DIVISION The Repair Division has the ceaseless job of the repair and upkeep of the hull of the ship and all systems and spaces not specifically assigned to other divisions. R Division carries out its task through the cooperation of its 64 men consisting of LTJG R. L. Teaford, the Division Oliicer, ENS M. E. Wall, Junior Division Officer, CHCARP C. A. Bixler, Station Officer, and with the able assistance of three Chief Petty Officers, each leading a group of approximately 20 men. The main function of the damage control group is to maintain the watertight integrity ofthe ship. They also form the nucleus of the repair parties whose job it is to repair battle damage and keep the ship afloat. The blacksmith and sheet metal group is established to weld, braze, and shape metal items whever required, and to manufacture, install, and repair such things as ventilation ducts, equipment lockers, deck plating, etc., throughout the ship. The carpenter shop and pipefitters group builds and repairs all wooden construc- tion, and is responsible for the maintenance and repair of the many piping systems throughout the ship. u1 i 1 -,..v- ,NN -1 M Q , 5 i H , V 'MQW-Aii.wm 'H g . 1 'sw W Nuiwxsglww, 3 x.. - E V MEDICALEDENTAL DEPARTMENT LCDR E.

They assist the doctor and the dentist during treatment hours and While operations are being performed. Hospital corpsmen make up prescriptions in the pharmacy, care for patients in the Ward, and answer calls for first aid when someone is injured. Everyone on board has had occasion to observe the skill with which the corpsinen give injections, or shots , They are the ones who are prepared to go any place at any time to care for the sick and the Wounded. The corpsmen and the dental technicians keep up to date the health record of every person assigned to the ship. Their duties also include keeping records of the drugs and other medical supplies on board. When the ship is at general quarters, the corpsmen and dental technicians are found at the various battle dressing stations. Often their skill and attention to duty are quite literally a matter of life or death. ' For much of this cruise LTJG R. H. Wilkinson was Division Officer, but upon his detachment LT J. G.

S-2 DIVISION The S-2 Division includes commissarymen, stewards mates, and disbursing clerks, working under ENS P. C. Paul and CHPCLK E. G. Stewart. They are the men whose work makes more comfortable the lot of everyone who is serving in the ship. The duties of the stewards mates include the preparation and serving of food in the Captain's mess, wardroom. ad warrant ofiicer's mess, and caring for the quarters of those officers. Stewards mates stand condition watches and man general quarters stations on the guns of the ship, in both the main battery and anti-aircraft bateries. Commissarymen are primarily concerned wih the quantities of food that are consumed by the ship. They are the ones who receive, store, issue, and account for the food taken on board. Some of the commissarymen prepare the food for final consumption, in the galley and bakery. The disbursing clerks are the ones who keep the pay accounts, register allot- ments, and assist the disbursing officer on pay days. Their's is very exacting work, and they are responsible for the handling of over a hundred thousand dollars every month, in addition to the paper work handling of thousands more in the form of various allotments. 11 W 34 gi ls N, ,, W 1 1 I l i 1 1 I r K i LT R.

V DIVISION The airmen of the VH Division are assigned to the ship on temporary additional duty orders. They are aboard only when a helicopter or drone unit is to be operated from the ship. Normally, during the past three years, a helicopter has been carried aboard only when the ship has been deployed to operate in the Far East. The duties of the men assigned to the drone unit are described elsewhere. The duties of the men of the VU Division include maintaining records on the helicopter, keeping it in good repair, and iiying in the helicopter as crew members. The helicopter is used for many duties that were formerly performed by destroyers. LT D. L. Smith or ENS D. E. Robbins make daily guard mail trips in the helicopter when the ship is operating with a task force, calling at each ship of the force. Whenever a carrier of the force is launching or recovering aircraft, the helicopter is manned and standing by to rescue any pilot who might go into the water. Personnel to be transferred between ships that are steaming in, company frequently are transferred by helicopter. Truly, the helicopter is used for a variety of tasks. ..- ' x if .. ,W NW N W W ,QKW . 4 I, 2 Front row left to right: Gilge J. A. Swearingan D. V. Dixon V. L. LTJG D. L. Cecil Kelley G. K.

DRONE UNIT The personnel of the Drone Unit consisting of aviation electronics technicians and aviation metalsmiths are assigned to the ship on temporary additional duty orderf. A Drone Unit seives on board Whenever the ship is deployed to operate in WesPa . The duties of these men include maintaining records on the drones assembling and repairing them and assisting LTJG D, A. Cecil the drone contiol officer in the launching and controlling of the drones. The drones' small pilot-less aircraft that are controlled by radio signals are used as targets foi anti-aircraft gunneiy practice. They piovide a very realistic and dif- ficult target for the gunners. The drone unit is called upon to provide services both for the anti-aircraft batteries of the LOS ANGELES and foi any othei ships that might be in company with the LOS ANGELES. The United States Navy is consideied to have the most accurate gunnery of any Navy in the World. The efforts of organizations such as the Drone Unit on the LOS ANGELES contribute greatly to that un k'l the ever-needed practice. 5 ! 3 I 5 3 9 7 ! 7 7 Q! ! ! 3 7 7 I 2 , , . .C ! 7 7 N 7 I ! 7 ' X 1 . . g nery s il by providing effective targets for Contl olhng d1 one SAYONARA VVe have said Sayonara to the following officers during this cruise: CDR LCDR LT LT LT LT LT LT LTJG LTJG LTJG LTJG LTJG 'LTJG LTJG LTJG LTJG LTJG LTJG ENS CHCARP VV.
