One hundred and seventy men strong, A Gang covers the ship from stem to stern and from the top of the mast to the Engineering spaces deep down below. Hydraulics takes care of the aircraft elevators, the steer- ing gear, and innumerable other items vital for the ship's operation. The Diesel gang maintains the ship's emergency diesel generators in prime condition, ready to back up the ship's service generators if needed. The Steam Heat Shop keeps everybody in hot water, and Outside Repair keeps everything moving on the ship's conveyors. The A!C8tR Shop keeps everything cool and Boat Repair keeps the crew happy by having the liberty boats ready to go at any opportunity. The O2N2 Shop makes liquid oxygen and nitrogen to support the Air Wing, Medical and Dental Departments. The Machine Shop handles all the orders Supply cannot fill and makes the quick fix-ups necessary to keep vital equipment running. The Catapult Steam Shop runs the equipment which keeps the Air Wing fl in ,thus I I y g supporting Nimitz' primary mlsslon. Though diverse in nature and location, all of the A Divi- sion work centers worked as a team to carry the load in Engineering and keep Nimitz steaming through this 1982- 83 Mediterranean cruise.

Weaver AD The Engineering Administrative staff is responsible for accurate, legible, and up-to-date Engineering records plus timely submission of accurate and legible reports. The staff consists of four Principal Assistants, an Administra- tive Assistant, 3M Coordinator and five Yeoman. Records maintained by the Engineering Department and reports submitted to the Engineer Officer provide data for Engineering reports to higher authority. Perusal of reliable records and reports by the Engineer Officer gives him an easy and effective method of being informed of the state of material and performance in all parts of the Engineering Department. Some Engineering records are mandatory and required by law, others are virtually indispensable for efficient oper- ation of the Engineering plant. They ensured the departments main office, the Log Room, was manned twenty four hours a day during five of the six months of Med Cruise 82-83. LCDR J.H. Chapman LT S. Fillipow EMCS JP.
