DIVESION M, X ENS Benlamin Domurat Emesl Couch EMCM Electrical Officer E Division's motto: We've done so much with so little for so long that we can do 'most anything with notl1ing. , gives probably the best indication of what, we, the ship's electricians can do. Divided into two ratings, electricians and interior communications technicians, E Division fi hts a never endin battle a ainst old and obsolete ui ment. Our 9 9 9 eq P responsibilities range from the yard-arm blinker lights high above Mike-ll to the main circulating pump in the bowles of the engineroom, from the l-MC to the nightly Mess Deck movie, and from the Captain's Gig to the ship's pick-up truck. In short, we are responsible for every piece of electrical equipment on the Rankin During the cruise we s ent - P approximately l,0O0 man-hours rigging Med lights, replaced 597 light bulbs, traded and showed l53 movies, and ran 987 feet of electrical cable. We work hard, but we are a ha ppy group and will remember Med 2-69 for many years to come. .c 'f X .xg ' L.

Their tasks are many and varied and range from habitability items such as installing wood panelling in the Crew's Lounge to keeping the ship afloat in battle conditions.
