STEARNS Division Officer CIC is the eyes and ears of the ship because it detects air and surface contacts, electronically speaking, long before they come within the range of optics. NCOMBATH collects, displays, evaluates, and dissemi- nates information concerning these con- tacts. Its function is to keep the command and necessary, dependent stations informed. An additional responsibility is the control of combat air patrol and other airborne aircraft. To accomplish these tasks CIC employs the technical skill of a highly specialized team, the men and officers of O-I Division. Back Row, left to right: Cowles, D. R., Jeffries, J. A., Herhold, R.
