It is they who chip and paint, repair inoperative guns and fire control equipment, maintain the sonar and hedge hog gear in top notch shape, and keep the forward topside area Of the ship spic and span. Under battle conditions theY may be found loading and training guns, 0perGfln9 fire control equipment, or standing by to deliver CIN anti-submarine attack to mention just a few.
