R02 T' D' Wheeier RD3 S. J. lVlcAdamis SN R, A. Wessel RDSN Vincent The ECNI Watch Amidst the quiet hum of the radar repeaters situated in a dimly lit space sits the ever vigilant radarman. His job: keep the bridge continually informed of the tactical situation. Although not always vigilant and not always informed, he is, nevertheless, a valuable member of the ship's company. The basic functions of CIC have been succinctly described as collection evaluation, and dissemination. A radarman collects the information by radar, radio telephone and other pieces of electronic gear. ln order for this information to be of anyvalue, however, it must be assembled into some meaningful form and interpreted. This is evaluation. Dissemination is the process by which the information is distributed to the ship's vital areas-principally the bridge. CIC stands as one of the most complex centers of the ship. In order to cope with the functioning of his numerous pieces of equipment in addition to the influx of tremendous amounts of information the radarman must keep an alert and flexible mind. Throughout the deployment the men in CIC did a commendable job. They aided in gunfire support, prevented collisions, kept abreast of hostile contacts, enabled the ship to rescue downed pilots, and men overboard to name a few. It is to them this portion of the cruise book is dedicated.
