Sent their names and additional information that I have not

. . . . . no bread, you say ?
Let them eat cake !

Often times that may be the case, as the 75 men of S-2
prepare meals for 4,000 hungry crewmambers. A big
task for any restaurant, let alone one afloat, these
commissarymen prepare four meals a day and serve
them an average20 hours a day, seven days a week.
4,000 hungry faces need about 12 tons of groceries,
10,000 glasses of milk, 600 gallons of bug juice, and
a ton and a half of potatoes each day. 14 storerooms,
2 vegetable preparation rooms, and a butcher and
baker shop round out the spaces these 75 men work
in to keep that many men happy. Add to that task a
few cakes for special occasions, and division parties,
and you have S-2 . . . . the commissarymen.
