The Story

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania- Warrant Electrician John F. Simpson, stationed at the Coast Guard Training School at the East Pittsburgh Works of the Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing Company, is shown as he points out some of the features of a newly developed alternating current propulsion control for Navy ships. The unit gives a ship's pilot direct control of the engine room from the pilot house. All switches and control mechanisms are contained in the compact main control board and it will be used aboard Coast Guard ships under Navy command. Other Coast Guardsmen are (left) Ralph A. Hannmann, C.E.M., and Fred West, Jr., E.M. 2C
