S-5 Division S-5 Division has a behind the scenes importance and responsibility to which not everyone gives thought. VIP ' s, when visiting the ship, often receive their strongest impressions from the manner in which they are cared for by the stewards. The wardroom, one of the ship ' s largest spaces, and the officers ' staterooms are the workshops of the stewards. They prepare and serve the meals, clean and polish the ship ' s silver and glassware, maintain Officer ' s Country in spotless perfection, and constantly strive to improve their principal product Service. The importance of this division reflects throughout the ship their job, well done, affects the ship ' s officers, immerses them in a sense of well-being that spreads, like a tide, to ' the entire ship ' s company.

Over the bewildering vastness of the ocean ' s face, without beginning or end, the ship finds its way it rides the charted paths, steered by ear and touch and sometimes, out on the deepest, wildest depths, it reaches up to hold hands with the very stars, seeking guidance beyond the horizon. 4 .
