CR DIVISION Ticker tape parades may be quite the thing in New York city, but to the boys down at Main Comm its just another trip to the incinerator. The responsibilities of Commu.. nications Radio Division is merely that of sending, receiving and routing the hundreds of messages that pass to and from RANGER daily. These communications with shore establishments as well as other vessels are vital to the ship's operation. One of the principle modes of communication is the teletype, which receives copy from shore establishments. The radiomen of CR Division are responsible for the operation, maintenance and repair of the teletype equipment as well as the Voice Networks, Cross-tell and Primary Tactical. In addition to the basic sending and receiving of message traffic, CR has to see that it is properly distributed through- out the ship. This calls for an intimate knowledge of the work- ings and operations of the complex and intense thing called RANG- ER. Despite the serious and demand- ing nature of their work he officers and men at Main Comm still find time to bring in the news and the latest ball scores. CYN3 H.
