exercises (application of casualty control techniques). Most  of  the  training  will  be  done  during  the  ship’s regular  underway  time,  underway  training,  and refresher training. The key to ECC training is frequent drills.  This  will  keep  the  old-timers  refreshed  and  will train  new  personnel. As  a  senior  technician,  you  must  ensure  that personnel working for you and within the electronics division  receive  the  proper  training,  guidance,  and support  to  achieve  combat  readiness.  While  such training  may  appear  to  be  boring  to  subordinates,  you and your seniors can and should make it interesting by using  and  mastering  different  simulated  situations  each time you have electronics casualty control training. Try to  get  your  shipmates  involved  so  they  develop  a positive attitude and feel that they are a part of an important  ship  function. As you prepare ECC training for your personnel, be sure to cover at least the topics in the list below. 1.  Preparations  for  getting  underway.–This should  include  energizing  and  checking  electronic equipment and systems for proper operation (in most situations,  you  and  the  operator  will  complete  this together)  and  checking  electronic  spaces  for  missile hazards and fire hazards. 2.   Investigation   and   reporting.–Conducting investigations for possible damage after any incident that may have caused damage to equipment or spaces. 3.  Reports  of  electronic  casualties.–Using  the proper  procedures  for  reporting  equipment  and personnel   casualties. 4.   Assistance   to   remote   spaces.–Providing technical assistance to a remote station which has no technician,  in  which  the  technician  has  become  a casualty, or in which the assigned technician needs assistance. 5.  First aid for electrical shock–Administering first aid for electrical shock under all conditions. 6.   Combatting   class   C   fires.–Reporting, controlling, and extinguishing class C fires. 7.  Equipment  casualty  repair.–Handling casualties  under  battle  conditions. 8. Use of electronic test equipment.–Using test equipment  safely. 9.  Equipment  casualty  repair  during  loss  of lighting.–Investigating  casualties  to  equipment  and making repairs during periods when normal lighting is lost. 10. Use of spare fuses.–Using spare fuses to repair casualties  that  result  from  momentary  overloads. 11.   Use   of   the   casualty   control   manual   and folders.–Using the casualty control folder and checking the completeness of the folder in all spaces. 12.  Drawing  emergency  spare  parts.–Using  the proper  procedure  for  drawing  emergency  repair  parts under the coordination of damage control central and the supply   department. 13. Use of alternate or emergency power.–Using alternate or emergency power properly. 14.  Sound-powered  phone  casualty.–Reacting  and using message slips if the phone system is knocked out. 15. Secondary and alternate ECC.–Transferring responsibility for electronics casualty control during general  quarters. 16.   Performance   of   primary   and   secondary ECCs.–Maintaining  an  efficient  casualty  control  system in the primary and secondary ECCs. 17.  Cleaning  procedures  for  broken  radioactive tubes.–correctly  cleaning  up  broken  radioactive  tubes. Type commanders and fleet training groups have refresher   training   exercise   information.   Get   this information and read it so that you understand the simulated  situations,  procedures,  and  exercise  grading for each of the areas listed. Casualty  control  is  the  active  onboard  management of all the elements (such as personnel, parts, manuals, and  equipment)  to  keep  your  electronics  division functioning as it should under battle conditions. This is your  responsibility  aboard  your  ship;  and  while  practice and planning are a constant concern, it is combat that makes  casualty  control  a  reality. We will now discuss a different aspect of electronics casualties–casualty  reporting.  Formal  casualty  reports must be made on a continuing basis, and only your conscientious  attention  will  allow  fleet  management  to provide  proper  support. CASUALTY  REPORTING The  preceding  section  covered  electronics  casualty control from the preparation standpoint. This section discusses  casualty  reporting,  an  important  and continuing  part  of  the  casualty  report  (CASREP) system. The Navy is a large part of our nation’s defense, so we must be ready to serve it well during peacetime or 5-5
