IGATI 551 if r xx SJ: f -14 .O L-R: ENS DAWSON, BRADSHAW, SN, ITTEL, SN, LANDRON, QM35 SANDUSKY, QM33 LT THOMAS- LT. R. THOMAS The Navigation Department daily solves the in- tricate and detailed question of where the ship is located, what speed and course it has made good and what the fastest and safest route is to its next destination. In order to answer these and other quCS tions the Quartermasters and Navigator make use of the Loran, Fathometer, Charts, Sextant, Celestial Bodies and many publications. The Quartermasters also man the helm during all special manuevers, keep track of the weather situation, maintain numerous logs and compute to time of sunrise and sunset. The Department is proud to report that not once did it lose the end of the long string hack to San Diego, though in the South China Sea it was feared that the string might become fouled in the ship'S screw as the ship steamed in never ending circles. 42 3,3
