LT HIGGINS, J. ABCM WYATT, C. I Y ABCS BRABANT, I G ABHC TULLOCH, ABHC VOGLE, D. ABH1 BROWN, .Mk -7, . V-1 DI VISI O V-1 Division is the cornerstone of the building blocks that make up the Air Department. Manned by Aviation Boatswain's Mates tflandlingl, it plays an integral part in RAlYGER's flying mission and airwing support. V-1 consists of various job assign- ments such as aircraft handling crewmen, aircraft elevator operators, aircraH tow tractor drivers, crash and salvage crews and aircraft directors as well as the required administrative and mainten- ance personnel. As the key to successful Flight Deck operations, the bulk of V-1 Division works long and demanding hours which start two hours prior to the first launch and continue until well after final recovery. At that time, a small yet profi- cient night crew takes over the tasks to provide the air wing with assistance in performing required maintenance. A job with little time off it gives an individual a strong feeling of self satisfaction and accomplishment when he sees an aircraH go oft' the pointed end and recover Safely at the end of it s mission. V-1 Division is the true meaning behind the words, PRIDE IN PERFORMANCE EQUALS PROFESSIOIYALISMH, and it shows in the attitude of those who move the birds so well. 1 , . an .1 l .
