UNREPS, VERTREPS, CONREPS. . .these are all fa- miliar terms to members of ROANOKE's Deck De- partment. The Deck Department aboard ROANOKE is primarily composed of Boatswain's Mates. ON ROANOKE they serve functions ranging from keep- ing a watchful eye on the bridge of the ship, to ensuring connections with the various ships being replenished by ROANOKE are proper. Serving in a demanding position aboard ROANOKE, these sailors work sometimes day and night to transfer provisions from ship to ship. Working hand-in-hand with the Helicopter Detachment, they see to it that proper flight deck procedures are followed. Also as a part of their seemingly never ending duties, Deck Depart- ment personnel maintain the Captain's Gig, steer the ship, perform maintenance on the appearance of the ship, and operate the ship's anchors as well as handle ROANOKE's mooring lines.
