From anchor windlass to after steering, you can find Enginemen hard at work maintaining, operating, and repairing their equipment. Without them, the small boats don't run, the food doesn't stay frozen, the ship doesn't steer, the galley mixers don't mix, the spaces don't stay air conditioned, and our very own high quality PRINCETGN Brand H20 isn't produced. Behind these operations and more, you will find a diverse group of men whose quality craftsmanship and strong work ethic are unparalleled. Their hard work has not gone unnoticed: A Gang boasts the Senior and Junior Sailor ofthe Quarter and has had four navy Achievement Medals awarded during deployment. After the last advancement cycle A Gang gained three new third classes, two new second classes, and one new first class. Not bad for a division of only l7 sailors. 42 rsDv ENC Paulsen waits in CCS for his relief EN3 Tfuiillio and EN2 Rivera make gaSkCfS t for Aft Steering A'GaUg leaders, LTJG Lindstofm EN2 Muradkhanyan tries to call home from Aux l and ENC Paulsen, stand proud and tall DC Olympics Gold medallist QL to R - EN3 Abell, EN2 Flath, EN2 Rivera, EN3 Duljresne, ENFN Stallingsj l

The Electricians mates onboard the USS PRINCETON QCG-5 91 are in charge ofthe power generation, distribution systems, and motor control circuits. Electricians are also in charge of electrical safety, making sure everyone is trained and aware of safety precautions when dealing with electricity. The operation, repair, and maintenance of the electrical power plant are vital for PR1NCETON's missions, and its efforts to fight terrorism. Electricians can be found throughout the ship doing maintenance, repairs, and providing assistance for others working with electricity. This varies from a range of tasks from cleaning and inspecting equipment to fixing lighting, galley equipment, laundry equipment, etc. From the chief petty officer down to the lowest ranking fireman, electricians maintain equipment readiness. Just about every piece of equipment onboard PRINCETON relies on electricity to operate. Therefore electricians are essential for the comfort of shipboard life and ever day operations of USS PRlNCETON.
