S. the unique. sectionally built ant sesvice even a battleship, has proven a major factor in keeping homelann. Described reiently by Viie Admiral Ben Morell, the ships, some sections of whiih have been ‘built by the Polliock-Stockton Shipbuilding Co. are known as advance ‘base sectional, docks—shoéfttened to ABSDs—they . have capacities ranging from 56,000 to 100,000 tongs which is more than enough capacity to raise the largest ‘battleship from the water to repair battle damage. Developed by the navy’s ‘bureau of yards and docks, the ABSDs were termed by Vice Admiral Moreell as being to the fleet what field hospitals are to the army, because a crippled ship ean be taken into one of these huge floating dry docks and repaired sufficiently to sent it back into action, or tmporary repairs can be made so that the vessel can reach 4 major navy yard safely. Vice Admiral Moreell revealed that ABSDs proved thevir-wotfth in the Battle of Leyte Golf when three battleships were serviced in a forward area, enabling those big ships to take parts in this major sea _ battle without the unique floating dry docks, it would have been necessary to ‘bring the ships to the mainland for repairs. Besides battleships, serve smaller vessels and on one} recent occasion two light cruisers . were docked in one of the craft simultaneously. There have been times when a half dozen large landing the . ABSDs 'eraft ‘including LSTs have been serviced at one time. Altogether Vice Admiral Moreel revealed, in a roeeae eight months period the ABSDs hand-. including one of our! led 176 ships, large battleships. The ABSD is an exclusive Ameri i can development and no other navy} has anything like it, Vice Moreell said, and there can doubt that in the future the ABSDs and our gemaller floating dry docks will play a vital role in saving baitle damaged ships and. keeping the others in the peak of fighting trim. Sections of the advance base sectional docks are built by the Pollock Stockton .yard. Other sections are
built in Eureka, California, in Everett, Washington, Morgan City, La., and Pittsburgh, Penn. The sections have lifting capacities of from §8,000 to 10,000 tons, They are taken the thick of . ithe fight that now is so near to Jap Adrimal . be no} SRT EEO TER HO ual fghting as possible, and there assembled into their gigantic battleship capacity for on the spot service to the fleet. Pies Tae TT TAKES NINE floating dry dock which can be tak-. en right into the war zone to repair . : ft takes nine men ashore to kee one man at sea, this was the astounding statement made this week by Lt. (Margaret Moak of the Sacramento Coast Guard recruiting station. With every nine SPAIRS enlisted — one more male Coast Guardsman can go to sea. It is easy to see how necessary it is that many more northern California women join the SPARS now. More men are needed aboard ‘ship, but they cannot go until SPARS are vailable to release them. It takes a lot of recording, communicating, bookkeeping and typing to keep ships and men of the Coast Guard always ready to do their pobs. SPARS are on duty in district offices of the Coast Guard and at the training, shore and air __ stations, communications eenters, small arms repair and supply depots. They are gradually taking over the detail of the pay and supply section of the service. Many SPARS are now on duty in the district offices in San Francisco. Lt. Moak continued, but with the trend of the war swinging to the Pacific many more are needed. While: stationed in San Francisco’ the SPARS live in the beautiful SPAR barracks at 940-Sutter St. formerly the Empire Hotel. Many otherg live in apartments and are entitled to quarters and subsistence allowance. "In order to enlist, women must be’ . between the ages of 20 and 36 and must have had at least two years of . high school or business school. They . vest be able to meet physical and . aptitude requirements set up by the Coast, Guard. They cannot have any . ehildren under 18 years of age.
