THIS IS A DRILL THIS IS A DRILL ON ACADIA. FIRE, FIRE that call goes out over the IMC almost daily, whether inport or out to sea, day or night. And, because of those constant drillings, a shipboard fire was extinguished, due to quick thinking, rapid action and cool heads. The day was June 9th, around 4:00 am, FN Joseph O. Oberg III awoke to smoke in his berthing space. Upon investigation, he discovered the smoke was coming from a fire in a storage room that was between his berthing and another berthing space, and which was just one deck above a large fuel storage tank. He reported to Damage Control Center (DCC) the location, and then returned to the scene and attempted to extinguish the fire. Being forced out by heavy smoke, he then went and awoke his sleeping shipmates, keeping them from becoming memories of the West Pac. The Fire Cracker Team showed up, and extinguished the fire. They, along with FN Oberg, received Letters of Commendation for their heroic performance. From all of us on ACADIA, Thanks guys. ■ -x• While inport in Yokosuka, Japan, some other crewman got to practice fire fighting at the Fire Training Center.
