While assisting the Navigator and the Officer of the Deck (OOD) in navigating the ship the Quatermasters serve as helmsmen when critical steering is required (such as during all underway replenishment) and provide hourly weather reports to the OOD. Underway the QM ' s maintain an accurate plot of the ship ' s posi- tion utilizing the sun, stars, loran and radar. The CIC watch keeps an accurate track of all radar contacts recommending appropriate evasive steering courses to the Officer of the Deck if the contact appears to be approaching too close. Radarmen manning CIC also guard ship-to-ship voice communications circuits and operate the Dead Reckoning Tracer (DRT) in the event of a man overboard.

COMMUNICATIONS The success of MANATEE ' s mission depends to a large degree upon accurate and rapid communic- ations. In Radio Central and on the Signal Bridge, a constant watch is maintained to ensure that this is achieved. The Electronic Technicians ' responsibility lie in keeping the radio and radar gear operative. Work- ing closely with the Radiomen and Radarmen, the ET ' s do extensive preventive maintenance to prevent breakdown and are quick to correct any deficiency or failure that occurs. Radio maintains a constant guard over a whole series of designated frequencies. When a message directed to the MANATEE or of direct interest to the MANATEE is received, the Radiomen on watch route it to all concerned personnel. The MANATEE ' s Signalmen normally exchange international call signs with ships met on the high seas and handle all visual communications traffic using flashing light, flag hoists or seamphore flags. During refueling-at-sea operations, the Signalmen are kept very busy ex- changing last-minute information w ith customer ships making their approach. tu r : First row ; LTJG. James R. WEED, ETI T.K.
