In this, the second edition of THE BINNACLE, it is the aim of the Staff to present, on behalf of the faculty and student body of the Apprentice School, a brief outline of the work and activities of America’s young shipbuilders in this time of world- wide strife. In so presenting this Apprentice chronology we gratefully acknowledge the aid of the following men and women who contributed unsparingly of their time and efforts in furnishing the material so essential to the authentic portrayal of Apprentice life: — Mr. T. C. Skinner, for the use of his oil paintings; Mr. E. P. Griffith for his help with the photographic work; Mr. E. F. Hill and Mr. W. T. Radcliffe for their help at the Mariner’s Museum; Mr. Hancock of the Hydraulic Laboratory; Mr. D. G. Moorhead for the use of his official U. S. Navy photographs; Mr. Dalton Morris for his aid to our Art Staff; Mrs. Frank Swelling, her secretarial staff, and Mrs. Edel M. Pullen for their cooperation in helping the staff at work. It is our desire that this volume of THE BINNACLE be representative of the high standards of workmanship now being displayed by the members of the Apprentice School on the production line. May these standards stand as a symbol of our all-out effort to all Apprentices of future years.
