 "Now man number 1 elevator and pump room."
 
A Division means auxiliaries. And by that,everything from emergency diesels for electrical
 power to fix the air conditioner in your office.
 The A Division snipes have the many varied
 tasks of manning all the elevator pump rooms
 and seeing that they are maintained  .  .  .
 operating the stores elevators and running the
 oxygen plant for the air wing  .  .  .  providing
 steam for the catapults  .  .  .  and fixing vents
 and air conditioners. And somehow when you
 try to put these in some order of importance,
 keeping the liberty boat engines running
 comes out on top!
 
All of these services demand long hard hours,but when you need your air conditioner fixed
 or the lights go out in your section of the ship,
 call an A Division Auxiliariesman.
