'cWhat do you mean you don't have the duty? No, we are not playing twenty questions. This is X Division at work. X Division is composed of an assortment of Yeomen and Personnelmen, Who, along with the help of the Personnel Officer, make up the administrative part of the ship. Like all divisions on the ship its Work is essential, for it is these sly smiling people who keep your record, keep track of your liberty card, issue l.D. cards, take care of all incoming and outgoing mail, receive and transfer you, and even go to mast with you unfortunates. We are also the proud publishers of the only news media pub- lished aboard ship. We have been known to look for something that exists only in the mind of the person who is looking for it, and, vice-versa, We have been known to live up to our motto, lf We've got it, lT'S LOST!

OM1, Wright, J. C. QM3, Baker, C. W. QM3 ? 9 l V This department is the smallest department aboard the THOMASTON but by far the least unnoticed. l The Navigation Dept. is made up of five enlisted men and one commissioned officer. Their primary duty l is the safe navigation of the ship to any known point of the globe under any existing condition. This is done with an outstanding degree of accuracy. The men of the navigation department, besides from 'being navigators, are also visual communication experts. We of the THOMASTON are very proud of our Navi- cl gation Department, for it is within the highest standards of naval tradition.
