SUPPLY D PAR TMEN T SUPPLY DEPARTMENT We all have some idea as to what f'Supply means, but, many people do not know what it means to supply . This department ensures the ship car- ries enough supplies. Often, we must procure items in foreign ports. Supply coordinates with each department Supply representative the purchase of all items necessary for each depart- ment to fulfill it's obligations. Supply also provides laundry services, a fine barbershop, food preparation, and pay services for the crew. Composed of Mess Management Specialists, tMS'sl, Storekeepers, iSK'sl, Ships Service- men, lSH'sl, and Disbursing Clerks, iDK'sl, all working for the ships crew. DI BUR ING CLERKS SHIP S SER VICEMEN S3 Division The Ship's Servicemen. Just what do they do? Well, they do a lot! The SH's operate and maintain the ship's barber shop, where hundreds of crew members will come for their regulation haircut. iWhich is freell They also get all the latest dirt as they operate the ship's laundry facilities. Thirsty? Care for a Coke? Our Sl-l's keep two soda machines filled and running. And, for personal needs like socks, T-shirts, and many other necessary items, the Ship's Store is the place to be. Also operated by the SH's, the Ships Store also provides ice-cream, chips, candy, and other snacks to help hold the crew over till meal time. Not only that, but the best part of it all, is that all the profits from the Ship's Store go to Welfare 8t Recreation to be used to- wards discount tickets to ball games, sponsoring ship's picnics, and other ship sponsored activities. S4 DIVISION Who says Disbursing Clerks only work two days a month? That just sim- ply isn't so! The Disbursing Clerk iDKl is responsible for maintaining the accu- racy of leave and earnings statements. You can always see a line of people standing outside the Disbursing office as customer service is a big part of what being a DK is all about. They process travel expense claims and cash checks. Overseas, DK's make currency exchanges. By far, the most important job of the DK is the one most think is the only thing they do. That's when they hold payday on the 15th 8t 30th of each month. Supply Officer Lt, Parkhurst
