One of their primary functions is to keep the boat engines in good running condition. After all, even with a well trained boat coxswain and bowhook, in the best conditions, where would the boat go if tlie engine didnlt work? There- fore A Division puts in many long hours keeping the Renvillels 24' boats in running order. Also those ever im- portant Winches for lowering and raising the boats from the water are part of A's responsibility.

PHILIPPI , in Home . 1 ff' ails- 5 ,-:int 1-., r x ilu Ever present leepnicw On 23 January the Renville arrived at the inevitable, inescapable, Subic Ba Luvon ya J a Philippine Islands, that bleak home away from home for many Seventh Fleet ships. At that tropic island while the ship underwent repairs and ' ' preparatlons, the crew enjoyed the new- found -sunas warmth, and swam off the sandy shores, and all ventured into the crude dilapi- d d ate town of Olongapo for at least one look and perhaps some purchases of the island wood carvings. During the three different stops at Subic Bay some even were fortunate to vis't .,l the capital city of Manila, a few hours south. ,p-nuIS'1 girl 'hw 5' s 'f f rJf it i u -... lynn ml 'V
