V-3 DIVISION 1990 - 1991
U.S.S. INDEPENDENCE CV-62
Air Department
"Whistles, hand signals . . . yellow shirts . . . "
Patches Provided by Jimmy Parrack DC2
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.
