During the 67 consecutive days at sea, we experienced no casualty or serious problem with our machinery. This record was accomplished with no small amount f h o ard work and ro er rior lannin . On our P P 8 casualty control drills for score we received excel - lent grades in the low 90's and received the unbeliev- able score of 100 on the economy run. M Division had five men rated 3rd class in Noveiiie ber. Grove, Broesder, Latham, Webb, and Zozgornik all received their crows. We may not have had much liberty on this cruise, but we made the most of what we got.

R DIVISIG The' Repair Division has a many faceted obli- gation. The Division consists of two separate and distinct Gangs . The Shipfitters and the Damage Controlmen. The Shipfitters are what could be more commonly called metal workers and plumb- ers , and the Damage Controlmen the Carpenters. The DC's handle all woodworking on board, al- though their primary responsibility is what their name implies, Damage Control. They are respon- sible for the repair and up-keep of all damage control equipment throughout the ship. Everything from fire hoses to Oxygen breathing apparatus is their job. The shipfitters are fully trained in fabrication and welding and can handle this work with skill. I Need a plumber? Call a shipfitter. These men in take care of the miles of piping in the ship, from the firemain to the Dentist's air hose outlet. Re- LTJG. J. FORET pairs are made around the clock with skill and efficiency.
