V-3 DIVISION 1980 - 1981 U.S.S. INDEPENDENCE CV-62
Air Department
"Whistles, hand signals . . . yellow shirts . . . "
If you ever tripped over a tie-down chain or
bumped your head on part of an aircraft in the
hanger bay and had grim thoughts about it,
chances are you were thinking about V-3 Division.
V-3 Division provides the essential services
of hanger deck security, Integrity, and aircraft handling.
Because the hanger bay is used by all hands for
different activities, aircraft on the hanger bay are
often "respotted" to the flight deck by means of
the four deck-edge elevators operated by V-3 Division personnel.
The confines of the hanger bay demand accurate
judgement, top-notch maneuvering skill and
safety to place over 90 aircraft into a little
space for maintenance and repair.
