My Apologies
To those who have
Sent their names and additional information that I have not
added yet.
The project has become very large and even 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

E Division 1988 - 1989
U.S.S. INDEPENDENCE CV62
Engineering Department

"Hello, Special Services . . . what? Laundry!
I dialed Special Services"

The IC men of E Division tell us that complaint is
sometimes the only conversation they have in a
day . . . just complaints about the phone system.
But maintaining over 900 telephones on the ship
is no easy task.

The various work centers of the Electrical or "E"
Division are responsible for maintaining the
ship's electrical power, lights sound powered
phone circuits, public address systems,
telephones, squawk boxes and all other
electrical circuits.

Other E Division men run the battery locker, the
catapult and elevator shop, flight deck lighting,
and the all important electrical safety shop. And
lest we forget . . . the heart of the INDY's off-duty
entertainment . . . the movie booth belongs to
E Division

The men of E Division cover a lot of territory from
the mast head lights to the gyros in after steering.

The IC men can correct me, but when the
old three digit phone system was in, the
Chaplins # was 666 so no one else got it.
After that it was 7666.
