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

IM-3 Division 1970 - 1971
U.S.S. INDEPENDENCE CVA-62
AIMD Department
"Well, that's another day's work done,want to
go have a couple of cool ones to calibrate?"
That may sound like a malapropism to you but not to the
men of IM-3 Division.
IM-3 is the Avionics Intermediate Level Maintenance
organization aboard ship. These men repair and
calibrate thousands of electronics, ordnance and
miscellaneous equipment items during a normal
deployment. At their disposal is a multimillion
dollar inventory of some of the most
sophisticated test equipment available.
Every man in IM-3 has a substantial amount of training
and each is highly skilled in his work. The IM-3 Division
is manned by a nucleus of ship's company technicians,
supplemented by Air wing technicians TAD from
various embarked squadrons. Through hard work
and professionalism, AIMD Department's ability
to produce "top quality products"
is a fact all can be proud of.
