Mayer RC Reactor Controls lRCl Division is comprised of the Elec- tronics Technicians who are tasked with the maintenance and repair of Nimitz' vast, complex reactor control and protection systems. These highly skilled technicians hold the reigns on Nim- itz' reactors, adeptly unleashing their power on a mo- ment's notice to safely and efficiently provide the drive for Nimitz' propulsion and auxiliary systems. Reactor Controls Division enjoyed an exciting and chal- Ienging cruise. Port visits to Naples, ltalyg Palma, Spaing Alexandria, Egypt and Monte Carlo, Monaco, provided ex- cellent opportunities for sightseeing and some much de- served relaxation. The underway time was spent working many long hard hours in support of Nimitz' multi faceted mission. The highlights of the cruise were the highly suc- cessful completion ofthe Operational Reactor Safeguards Examination QORSEl and the awarding of the COM- NAVAIRLANT Red E for engineering excellence. The dedication and tireless efforts of these Keepers of the Sacred Fire contribute significantly to Nimitz' ability to steam anywhere, anytime. 232 ET1 R. McPherson ET1 W. Ward ET2 C- Afd to l ET1 D.

CDR J. Craighill LCDR K. Bersticer LT J. Zeszutek YN1 J. Hankins YMSN H. Wildonger REACTDR ADMIN At the heart of every great organization is an accom- plished staff. No team better exemplifies this concept than the personnel of the Reactor Office. Despite voluminous administrative requirements, they adepty respond to each challenge producing punctual, quality products. A proud, professional group, they give their all to support the blue glow. The 1982-1983 Mediterranean Cruise was highlighted by the attainment of several significant departmental milestones. Foremost of these achievements was the win- ning of the COMNAVAIRLANT Red E for sustained excellence in aircraft carrier engineering performance. Painted on the Island by the Commanding Officer, Reactor Officer and the Chief Engineer, the Red E epitomizes the diligent effort and cooperation exerted by each member of the department over the past year. Though many long hours supporting Nimitz through continuous and reliable propulsion, catapulting and electri- cal power generators and through long hours of classroom training, written and oral examinations, drills, an Oper- ational Reactor Safeguards Examination QORSEJ, Pre Overhaul Testing and Inspections QPOT 8t l'sJ and other multitudinous Pre Overhaul Preparations, the capabilities, endurance and determination of Reactor Department per- sonnel were continually tested, but each challenge was met with similar results-SUCCESS! ip mg., 530 NAC E IMITZ CS
