ST The Navy must be able to determine what is under the water as well as what is on the surface in order to detect reefs in uncharted waters, and to discover the presence of enemy submarines, surface ships, or other submerged objects. The operation and care of sonar equipment that detects the presence of objects is the work of the Sonar Technician. The Sonar Technician provides underwater data for operational use, and supervises the use and upkeep of sonar equipment. They organize antisubmarine attack teams; evaluate targets and interpret oceanogra- phic data; evaluate the operation of sonar equipment; locate, analyze, adjust or repair equipment casualties; and align, maintain and repair surface ship underwater fire control systems.
