Deployment ' 92 D o you think you will ever have to get rid of that pesky inbound aircraft, or settle the score on far far away? Do maintenance on your radar? Load or unload that launcher just because you are in the mood? Troubleshoot that multi-million dollar missile launching system that just refuses to come on-line when you need it most? Get rid of that rust in your steel or aluminum deck that j ust won ' t go away? Paint and or clean passageways until they shine ? Stand watch over your operating consoles until the cows come home? These are just some of the jobs done daily by the highly trained fire controlmen (PCs) and gunner ' s mate missiles (GMMs) of CF division. So if the answer is yes to any of the questions just mentioned above, you need CF division. We are the professionals you need to get the job done right the first time. And yes we can fix your toaster too. -ji V FC3 Wheeler renews acqiumtjiuei with a French sailor in Htmi; Kniig. mmmm .y

Deployment ' 92 Wien one thinks of the mission of the ship, he or she normally thinks of those personnel that directly affect operations, OSs, RMs, FCs, STGs, CTs, the air detachment, and of course the engineers. Although each of these ratings repairs gear, and these ratings are very visible and important, if CE division was not there to maintain and fix equipment, these people would not be able to do their jobs. The DSs and ETs maintain and repair all external communications systems, surveillance radars, computer interfaces, computer programs, administrative computer systems, and repair numerous circuit boards through their electronic micro miniature (2M) repair station. They also supervise the ship ' s test equipment ' gauge calibration program, enabling all departments from navigation to engineering to accurately maintain the ship ' s systems within required specifications. What it all comes down to is, that when the high profile, visible people get awarded for a job well done, CE division can take silent pride, knowing that because of their efforts the ship has successfully completed its mission. You can talk about our inspection-ready passageway, but you can ' t communicate without DSl Valentine, member of the ship ' s derated cadre of computer technicians. DS2 Hammetl and ETS Edmonds show the finer art to not working, at time 1 S59. 13
