He is seasoned and trained on deck into the sea- man who will eventually run the topping lift, coxswain the boat, or fire the guns, Second Division does its part in making this seaman. The green learn from the salty, and sometimes the process works in re- verse. The tough jobs, the long jobs, and sometimes the dirty jobs are all com- pleted with the experience gained in the first few months on deck. Second Division's boatswains and gunners trained their men alongside the piers at Pearl, and off the reefs at Kwaj. They were ready for the big jobs to come during the cruise. The working of the 30 and five ton booms in lowering and raising cargo and boats, the landing of helos, and the rigging of boat booms and accommodation ladders were all done with speed and efficiency. The chipping, the painting, the sweeping, the cleaning of weapons, and the long hours on watch were all taken in stride. The men of Second Division rate a solid well done for the contribution in service to the MAURY'S mission. R31 S . ' ' f-N... Ml 4 5? 5 f.

Selvidze- ' i' V THIRD DIVI I0 The Third Division is the boat division aboard MAURY. It is the responsibility of these men to maintain, preserve, and Oper- ate the two LCVP's, LCPL-5, and LCPL-6 fbetter known as the Captain's Gig j , Dm-- ing survey operations, the division also furnishes men for the soundboats and for the beach camps. These men get much experience in lowering and raising boats for garbage runs , mail runs into the beach, crashboat manning for flight quarters, and if that isn't enough, they sometimes put a boat in the water for a water test. During their spare time, BM2 Ennis, a most capable petty officer, has them chipping paint, painting, scrubbing down bulkheads and decks on the main deck, 01, 02, and 03 levels. Keeping these spaces clean is a job in itself with the periodic blowing of stacks and the con- tinuous rain of soot every four hours.
