They are responsible for the alignment of all guns, which includes bore sight- ing and the adiustment of the sights. The Mark 14 and Mark T2 pneumatic sights, together with the compressors and lines are theirs to play with. The Ft's maintain the director controls and make sure that they are in perfect synchronization with the power drives that point and train the 40mm. mounts. The Techs are whizes at figuring ballistics, and operate our fire control radar that zeros the big guns in on the tar- get. They also operate the optical range finder when targets are within visual range. Their cleaning spaces include the 52 director-control shack, the port and starboard fire- control shocks, and all director-con- trol stations.
