My Apologies
To those who have sent
their names and additional
information, that I have
not yet added.
This project has become
very large and though I
work on it almost every
day, it is impossible
for me to keep up.
I will continue to add the
names and information as
quickly as I can.
Thank You All
For Your Support

3rd. Division 1978 - 1979
U.S.S. INDEPENDENCE
Deck Department
"Do you suppose this big hook would really
work for Deep Sea Fishing, or was the Boats
just putin' us on?"
Third Division mans "Big Bertha", the ship's Boat
and Aircraft crane. They bring aboard a variety
of items like commissary supplies, and liberty
and work boats, and during this cruise, they
even fished out a downed helicopter. Refueling
at sea is another of their specialties, as they
handle all JP-5 fuel rigs. They are the voice of
the 1MC as they stand the Bos'n mate of the watch
on the Bridge, along with the other deck divisions.
Third Division also takes great pride in maintenance
of a major portion of INDY's Interstate 62 the
ship's second deck passageways.
