An intense training program, properly planned maintenance checks, and teamwork contributed to Mac- donough's Naval Gun Fire Support QNGFSJ qualification score achieved off the coast of Vieques Island, PR. gun- nery range, in mid-November. Although plagued by rain squalls and range foulers, the NGFS team remained consistent throughout the exercises, achieving an overall score of 86.4 percent. According to CDR Lecompte, the achievement of the ship's gun and magazine crews, the quartermasters on the bridge, and the operations specialist's in the combat infor- mation center QCICJ was the result of more than five mon- ths of hard work. This work included intensive NGFS training evolutions, actual drone, high speed airtarget, and shore bombard- ment exercises with the navies of South America, and maintenance on the ship's gun mount and corresponding systems. This maintenance included daily transmission checks, battery alignments, replacing the transfer tray lbrings am- munition from lower hoist to the mountl, replacing the breach charging pistons lallows the breach block to move up and downl , and replacing the main accumulator charg- ing piston lallows the gun to build up the pressure to shootl.
