Operations Specialist 1st Class Petty Officer

Aug 1982 - Feb 1996
Operations Specialists aboard U.S. Navy combat vessels work in the Combat Information Center (CIC) aka: Combat, the tactical "nerve center" of the ship. Using a wide variety of assets available to us, we are responsible for the organized collection, processing, display, competent evaluation and rapid dissemination of pertinent tactical combat information to command and control stations, upon which sound tactical decisions may be made. Maintained Combat Information Center (CIC) displays of strategic and tactical information, including various plotting boards and tables depicting position and movement of submarines, ships and aircraft as well as tote boards containing data relevant to the tactical picture. Operated multiple surveillance, and tracking devices. Operated encrypted and non-encrypted long and short range radiotelephone equipment as well as intraship communication systems. Served as watch supervisor, watch officers, and section leaders underway and in port aboard ship and at commands ashore. Assisted in shipboard navigation through plotting and monitoring the ship's position using satellite and other electronic navigation resources, as well as fixing the ship's position near landfall using radar imaging. Interpreted and evaluated presentations and tactical situations and make recommendations to the Commanding Officer (CO) during various watch or combat/general quarters conditions. Applied a thorough knowledge of doctrine and procedures applicable to CIC operations contained in U. S. Navy Instructions and Allied Tactical or U.S. Navy Tactical Publications. The job of an Operations Specialist can be very intense and stressful while the ship is underway. OS's need to be able to think quickly, drawing on a large reserve of tactical and procedural knowledge, and be able make calculations on the fly in the fast-paced and information-saturated environment of naval combat operations at sea.
