Mixson OZ Division, the Carrier Intelligence Center lCVlCl pro- vides timely intelligence data to embarked staff and Nimitz decision makers for the planning and execution of oper- ational activity. OZ division is divided into five work centers which to- gether work as the Nimitz!CVW-8 intelligence Team . Electronic Data Processing QEDPJ supports Nimitz by providing the latest intelligence information from the Naval Intelligence Processing System QNIPSJ and other sources. Mission Planning and Briefing fMP8lBJ, the center for Nimitz Airwing Intelligence Officer's activities, continually demonstrates the highly efficient and dynamic operatl0nS that make intelligence support so valuable. The Administrative section is responsible for almost f0Uf thousand publications on various subjects and classifica- tions as well as providing administrative support to CVIC. CVIC Word Processing support is a major function Of Admin. , Multi-Sensor Interpretation QMSD performs a wide vafl' ety of tasks including photographic interpretation of aerial reconnaissance film, writing intelligence information re' ports and contact reports on foreign shipping. I Supplementary Plot lSupplotJ is Nimitz' all source fuSI0n center. lt is the fort of all graphic art support for briefings' status displays and other free-hand art work. The forty nine Officers and men of CVIC work closely together in supporting each functional area, as Wfilllafj other divisions in Operations Department to make Nimitz CVIC the best in the fleet.

TA Twenty-four hours a day, inport or underway, the Reac- tor Department Makes lt All Happen . Twelve decks be- low the noise and excitement of the flight deck with quiet precision, nuclear trained men operate and maintain the largest, most sophisticated shipboard nuclear propulsion plant in the world. The Reactor Department is made up of some of the most intelligent, reliable and highly trained men in the Navy. Their mission to ensure Nimitz meets her operational com- mitments. Their record is flawless. As a result of the corrective and preventive maintenance carefully performed by the men of the Reactor Department and their dedication to the operation of the nuclear propul- sion plant, Nimitz has yet to miss a commitment and is always capable of steaming at flank speeds and remaining for long periods of time on the scene. The Reactor Department is made up of an administra- tion section and five divisions: Reactor Controls, Reactor Electrical, Reactor Laboratory, Reactor Mechanical and Reactor Training. Electronics Technicians of the Reactor Department ensure sensors and control functions for the safe operation of the nuclear power plants function depen- dably and accurately. Electricians Mates ensure that the power generating equipment onboard is always in excel- lent condition ready to supply the huge electrical demandS of the ship. Engineering Laboratory Technicians petf0fm the vital function of ensuring that all chemistry associated with the power plants is kept ln Spec and that all radlolfl' gical survey functions are properly conducted. Machinists Mates maintain the mechanical and fluid systems associ- ated with the reactor plants. All nuclear trained operators who report onboard Nimitz are required to complete b3F'f7 nuclear engineering qualificiations in Reactor Training Divi- sion by studying the various mechanical, electrical, reactor control, and chemistry systems associated with the'enQ neering plants. After approximately six months of inten- sive study in Reactor Training, the new operator reports t0 his parent division within the Reactor or EngineerIr19 De' partments.
