Upkeep of the large seaplane deck, rigging of mooring bouys, sealane bouys, and other various jobs are the responsibility of the deck crew. During Air Operations V-1 begins a new life, which involves all hands. Newly painted boats are lowered into the water, manned with highly trained coxswains, ready to do their job in a minutes notice. The boats are involved in fueling, rearming, and trans- portation for squadron personnel. Once the crew members are transported, the planes are supplied with fuel and lube oil from one of the two 55,000 lb. Bowser boats, manned by the V-1 Gas Crew. The crane crew has the responsibility of hoisting and dehoisting aircraft, ships vehicles, boats, etc., any time the need arises day or night. Wluat might be considered the biggest task, concerns the Boat Maintenance crew which has the responsibility of keeping all the boats within the Air Department in outstanding running condition. The V-1 division leaves the crew at ease with their thorough knowledge of safty pre- cautions.
