Any tasks not specifically delegated to the other divisions seem to fall upon V-2's shoulders. In addition to the maintenance shops, V-2 has many other duties. The major portion of their tasks eventually end up in charge of the Hanger Deck crew. They have the general housekeeping chores on the entire Hanger Deck. The maintenance of the four ship's vehicles, the tool room for issuance of any and all kinds of tools to the other Air Department divisions and special tools to the squadrons, division damage control and many other small jobs Where Avia- tion Nlachinists lX4ates are required. The Aviation Electronic and Rader shops are fully equipped to handle any and all maintenance problems which the huge SP-5 Marlin seaplanes might develop in their electrical equipment or technical gear. The Aviation Metal shop is ready and well able to repair any sheet metal damage or hydraulic trouble which might become necessary. The parachute loft is continually on the alert for any types of repair Work to the multitude of survival gear carried by the Navy. It is also the tailor shop to the Air Department. On the whole, V-2 Division maintains more diversified rates than any other division on the ship. There are more than 10 different rates available to the squadrons as assistance personnel. In addition to their re- spective duties, all hands are constantly on call for the 6 crash crews which maintain a watchful eye on the various dangerous operations performed, such as fueling, ammo handling landings, and take-offs. Always ready to rush into the danger spots should trouble erupt in conjunction with seaplane operations, V-2 personnel are to be commended on their fine work, we are proud to call them Shipmate .
