OPERATIONS ■■ ' -• V LT J. Maclntyre The operations department on board USS DOWNES consist of three divisions, 01, OE and OC division headed by Combat Information Center Officer, Electronics Maintenance Officer, and Communications Officer, respectively. These division officers in turn work for the operations Officer. 01 division is manned by operations specialists (OS) and Electronic Warfare Specialists (EW). While underway, these men stand continuous watches in CIC.The primary mission of CIC is to keep the command informed of a situation and a secondary mission of providing assistance in specific situations. The OS ' s participate in all underway operations such as anti-submarine, anti-surface, and anti-air warfare, ship tactics, underway replenishments, and navigation and piloting. The EW ' s assist in intercepting and determining types of ships, aircraft and submar- ines. OE division is manned by electronic technicians (ET). Their job is to maintain electronic gear on the bridge, CIC, Radio, and various electronic equipment rooms in working order. They are also in charge of the ship ' s entertainment system. The Radiomen (RM) and OC division handles all of the message traffic that leaves and comes to the ship. While underway, they are tasked with bringing up various radio circuits so that the ship can conmunicate with other ships or shore stations. OC division is also manned by signalmen (SM). During underway operations, they visually communicate with other ships using flaghoists, flashing light, and semaphore. Along with the lookouts, the SM ' s visually identify ships as to type and nationality. The operations officer is tasked with coordinating various ship exercises and operations. He deals with anything involving ships movements. The ship does not go anywhere without the operations officer having thorough knowledge about it beforehand. Operations is an important department on the ship. Its job becomes even more significant during underway periods. The ship would be able to steam without the operations department but it would not operate . 32
