These military professionals are obviously graduates of many Defense Acquisition University courses. And they, no doubt, proudly display many dozens of DAU certificates all over their cubical-office walls. Except, of course, they were so busy earning their Black Belt in Lean Six Sigma, that they did not have any time to take EOD courses. Their priorities are just like NAVSEA's: mostly study Process, and go light on Product.
Just like thousands of US Navy AP's ? We study the worthless Process courses to death, to the detriment of our truely professional jobs. So ? LCS-2 is corroding badly already ? As soon as I complete my first 3-4 years of Level 3 Certified AP- Acquisition Professional BS courses, then I will try to locate that boring old BONDING AND GROUNDING MIL-STD and take a glance thru it. But only if it doesn't cut into my weekly DAU studies.
Nicknamed "Stumps" and "Lefty" and "One-eye"....
They spent their hours doing DADT repeal training instead of their jobs. Oh, and with the budget cuts, this is the first ordnance they have had a chance to handle.
Good luck boys. SGLI paid up?
I wonder if this will get tied to DADT and LCS. Maybe we can suppose they're USNA grads, just for fun!
I like the guy in the middle. He seems to be the only one that knows what's next.
Uh, almost forgot. LCS delende est.
Look in the mirror guest...
I'm just an old-fashioned shipfitter, and even I know Bonding and Grounding...including putting 17mil di-electric tape between dissimilar materials.
What do you do if a "Polock" throws a stick of dynamite at you?
1. Pick it up
2. Light the fuse
3. Throw it back
Im sorry (no offense to Poles) but I find that funny :-D
<span>None taken. But wait'll Admiral Harvey hears how upset I am about it. Five years from now, you're fired!</span>
Reminds me of a similar situation, no-sh!+, on a Spru-can in my FC3 days. A NSSMS bird's rail got stuck during an upload ... and after a couple hours of the whole evolution being hung up, the DCC starts driving the rail backwards using a sledgehammer (through a 4x4, of course ... had to keep the evolution "safe").
That was the day that I pretty much figured out that God *must* be on our side.
I bet that photo isn't staged. Actually, I'm sure of it. Those guys ARE trying to defuse that way.
Fiber my dear guest. Fiber.
Comes of designing ships with civilian contractors who do so without consulting those confining nitpicking expensive damn Milspec, Milstandards, Navy General Specifications for Ships (GenSpecs) and the annoying Naval Ships Technical Manual (NSTM).
You get a deathtrap that dissolves in the ocean and will lose to any warship in a fair fight, not to mention many naval auxiliaries.
Now where is all that money that was supposed to save the Navy?...
2 out of 3. Not too bad.
If anyone is interested, I can provide a copy of "safety notice" triggered by (pun intended) the result of one of our own trained killers using a .50 cal round as a hammer...not for the squeamish...
