Operations Department ' O Division lvision

“

OPERATIONS The Operations Department has a some- what unique position in the Larson. The other Departments perform functions which are much the same in any type destroyer. Even the Communications Division and Operations is different from that in other ships; Radio and Visual etc. being in no way different. But the O Division, — which embraces CIC and Electronics, — covers the the operation of special radar equipment and those jobs required of a Radar Picket. Its function supplies the R in DDR. It is the Larson ' s specialty which the Radarmen and Elec- tronics Technicians believe she does especially well. Be that opinion as it may, the pressure is always on them when working with the Fast Carriers in the Med. During the Sixth Fleet maneuvers, whether the ship remained in the destroyer screen around the heavy ships or was sent out as a picket, the CIC and elec- tronics personnel got very little sleep. All radars had to be manned and kept working at peak efficiency to detect opposition aircraft at the greatest possible ranges. Combat Air Patrol of our own Carrier ' s jets are frequently assigned the ship for control for long periods. The detection and interception of enemy raids requires the most exacting coordination, both within the ship and with the other ships of a force. The excellent reputation for Air Defense which the Larson achieved in the Med was largely due to the skill, reliability and endurance of the officers and men of the Operations Department.
