CDR V. . . Operations Deparir Plympion. Mass, The Operations Department is the e es, ears and voice of the ship. Nearly all contact with the other ships of tlie fleet is made by this department — the air controllers directing a protective fighter cover, radio sending out a request for supplies, radar searching for enemy subs, tactical signals being delivered by flag hoist from the Signal Bridge — all are the Operations De- partment at work. The Combat Infonnation Center (CIC) is one half of Opera- tions, and is charged with the duty of gathering, displaying, in- terpreting and disseminating information. To do this men in the air conditioned darkness of CIC hunch over radar scopes, calling bearings and ranges to bogies or skunks while still other men, writing backwards, plot the targets on status boards. And ECM operators, in their shack on the Ol level, report electronic emis- sions from other contacts, at ranges greater than radar can reach. Officers and men standing over plotting boards draw their lines, measure off distances — and speak quickly into microphones, sometimes to the Captain on the Open Bridge, sometimes to others who are hunched over similar boards on other ships. Thus is the information gathered, displayed, interpreted and dissemi- nated to those who must know in order -that the MACON be at all times a fighting unit. F. C rcCra Mpcclive CIC Offic Norfolk.
