Q2.  Where is the battle station for the DCA? Q3.  During GQ, DCC receives  reports and casualty status from— Q4.  What  is  the  minimum  requirement  to  be  a member of the in-port emergency team? Q5.  What are the primary missions of the rescue and assistance team? Q6.  What is the ship’s highest state of readiness? COMMUNICATIONS Learning Objectives: When you finish this chapter, you will be able to— Identify  the  communications  devices  used during damage control evolutions. Recognize  the  purpose  of  communications devices used during damage control evolutions. Communications are vital to the damage control organization. Without good communications, the entire organization could break down and fail in its primary mission. The size and complexity of the surface ships govern  the  design  of  DC  communications  systems f o u n d a b o a r d s h i p . M a j o r s h i p b o a r d D C communications systems are as follows: NOTE All the systems listed below are explained in detail in chapter 4 of this TRAMAN. Sound-powered telephones IVCS Ship’s service telephones Announcing systems Intercommunications systems DC WIFCOM EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS The  X40J  is  an  emergency  damage  control communication system. It’s employed in the event of primary, auxiliary, and supplementary communications circuit failure. The X40J is composed of both portable (“salt  and  pepper”  line)  and  permanently  installed (risers) components. ALARMS The  general  announcing  system  (1MC)  is integrated with a system of alarm signals. The signals override  the  microphone  control  stations  and  are intended to notify the ship’s crew of imminent danger. These alarms, in order of priority, are as follows: 1.  Collision 2.  Chemical attack 3.  General 4.  Flight crash Collision Alarm The OOD/conning station sounds this alarm signal when there is a possibility that the ship will run into a pier, run aground, or another waterborne unit will strike the ship. All hands should move away from the area of impact and brace for shock. After a collision, all hands set  material  condition  ZEBRA  and  are  prepared  to control fires and flooding. Chemical Attack Alarm The chemical attack alarm signal is sounded by the OOD/conning station, DCC, and automatically by the chemical agent point detection system (CAPDS) on 12-9 Student Notes:
