Seventh Division

Boatswain's Mate
                          

Gunner's Mate

The Seventh Division men have many places to work, and they can usually be found "on the job" performing their tasks every day. Their deck spaces include the area on the ship's starboard side amidships, which is inevitably the fueling area. Seventh men are always ready when time comes to perform their vital jobs.

Upkeep of the decks is in itself a monumental task, but Seventh Division gunners boast proudly of their fine record. Manning the 3 inch guns on the starboard side, the guns are always on the alert for a time when they are needed. Ever-present drills and practice keep the men on their toes . . . experts in their trade.
