GALS is the direction of movement of the ship (the concept comes from the sailing fleet). “Change GALS” meant a sharp change in direction. When ships did not yet have steam engines, but moved only by sails and wind, this is exactly how sailing went with a headwind. The sails were set at a large angle and deviated from the intended course to the side by about a mile, then they “changed tack” - the ship turned from the previous course by 90 degrees if possible, and sometimes by 120, the sails were thrown at the opposite angle, and the ship continued to sail the new tack is two or three miles. Then everything was repeated over and over again... If you look at all these movements from above, the ship’s path looked like a writhing snake along one specific axis. But! Even with a headwind, the ship followed the intended course. “Changing tacks”...

It’s even better to get what you need, but are not yet entitled to, write off what you supposedly have, but in fact have not had for a long time, and a new one is already necessary and desirable. The solution to these problems was achieved through the use of ship's "awl" and products for other purposes, and by stimulating various useful connections with the right people.

And this makes a lot of sense: with receiving (or about to receive) this title, the “client” is convinced of his high professional qualifications, his experience and social significance. However, most often this is not true or not entirely true. Hence - incidents, mistakes and even more serious consequences– accidents and crimes. The difference between these various service categories lies in the scope and objects of application of their wide knowledge and vast experience.

STUKACH - a sound signaling device on a practical torpedo.
CHEST – 1) super-conscript foreman, midshipman. The source of this expression must be the fact that this was the name given to boatswains, non-commissioned officers of the old Russian fleet, because only non-commissioned officers and above were allowed to have a “chest” as a storage of personal belongings. There was not much furniture in the cabins of sailing ships; in addition to the owner, onboard guns could easily have been comfortably placed there, secured with rolling hoists at the battened-down cannon port. And then the chest was an ordinary and necessary (and even mandatory!) part of camp life. As follows from the historical and memoir literature of the 19th century century, the sea chest had to meet fairly stringent requirements. Like many things in the Navy, it was traditional, functional. For example, it should have legs - so that dampness does not get into the chest, the bottom should be wider than the top lid - to make it more comfortable to sit on, the lock should be made of copper - so as not to rust in damp conditions, it should play music when opening - so that a thief does not I was able to open it unnoticed. When going ashore for a long time, the chest was delivered to the place of residence of the sailor, including the officer, for which it had to have two encircled belt loops - handles. And when the joys of the vacation ended, they went back or to another ship, to a new destination. Apparently, the chest was the envy of those who had no right to it, and the mocking “chest” in relation to non-commissioned officers was an indicator of social status; 2) a package of missile launch containers on some ships.

This is provided that they successfully completed the tasks of the commander, first mate, deputy and their commanders of combat units and received the go-ahead
SLOPE – slow down the process. This refers to the vigorous creation of artificial problems on the way to something new and useful. Especially for you personally. FOLLOW - to miss, to miss a profitable or successful moment, to miss something.

THREE RINGS - this translates as: “three green beeps in the fog,” that is, a signal meaning that the commander has left the ship; also mean that some of his subordinates can also, without unnecessary noise, sit in his wake to resolve personal issues on shore. These same three calls, but indicating the arrival of the commander on the ship, sharply increase the vigilance of the crew and the level of imitation of violent activity. For non-naval readers: Three bells are not a tribute of respect or honor, it is a signal to the crew that the commander has arrived on the ship and has taken control of it, upon departure - that the senior officer has taken control of the ship, and it is he who will now lead the fight for survivability, etc. if something happens.

If you do not have time to prepare and the angle of meeting with these “sisters” is chosen incorrectly, the waves can break the ship’s hull or, at least, knock out the front windows. Even at the running post, which is always located quite high.

TYULKIN FLEET – 1) small ships and vessels; 2) small fishing vessels.
PRISON OF PEOPLES - there was once such a propaganda stamp, meaning imperialism, some kind of empires, etc. In the navy, or rather, among cadets of naval schools (in the 60-80s), light artillery cruisers were called this mockingly (cruisers) of the KChF “Felix Dzerzhinsky” (the first ship of the Soviet Navy with an experimental air defense system) and “Admiral Ushakov”, “Zhdanov”, on which cadets of all VVMU of the European part of the USSR underwent so-called cruising practice. The living and living conditions there were, frankly and to put it mildly, Spartan; they stood on a roadstead in the middle of the bay, which decisively limited the freedom of the freedom-loving cadets.

UPASRANTSY – a mockingly poisonous derivative of UPASR (emergency rescue management). A very serious organization, whose employees are corrosive and practically incorruptible guys of increased harmfulness. Probably because human lives really stand behind their signatures and approvals, and that is why they are picky about equipment and preparation for various special equipment. But the commanders and mechanics they inspect suffer from this (morally and financially), which does not add brotherly love to the “upasrans” among the naval service people. Therefore, the absolute majority of the ship's people are convinced that their activities are entirely devoted to... (let's say: to do something to their neighbor). Hence the name.
Settle down - calm down, return to normal.
IRON – a large heavy ship; 1) this is how the first iron and steel ships that replaced wooden sailing ships were called in the Russian fleet; 2) a new word: a 1.75 liter bottle with a handle, so called for its vague external resemblance to an iron.

Once upon a time, in the darkness of the historical origins of the fleet, when there were no multi-flag codes of signals yet, the flagship, expressing dissatisfaction with the maneuver of the squadron ship, ordered that the name of this ship and the lit and smoking fuse, visible from afar, be raised “to its place.” Everything immediately became very clear to the captain of this ship. The expression “the fuse is still smoking” means that this boss is still under the impression of what happened, and it is better not to meddle with your problems; 2) the ship's projectionist, a popular person and irreplaceable on the ship, especially on weekends. Derived from the name of a once popular film magazine. Later, with the widespread introduction of VCRs, social status this freelance position fell sharply, as I shoved the cassette into the mouth of the battered video camera of the mind and special knowledge No need, even the lowest idiot is capable of this.

FORSAGE, in afterburner - very quickly, at a fast pace or even completely running, accelerated.
THE “HORSE” UNIFORM is a transitional form of clothing, when they begin to wear a peakless cap with an overcoat. With a long, rough overcoat, a peakless cap does not look very aesthetically pleasing. Sailors are not very fond of this uniform, which is why it has such a disparaging name.

XP - GKP - wheelhouse, the main command post of the ship.

BLACK TRIANGLE is an anatomical concept, sometimes observed live, as well as in different types fine art and photographs of nude women. It is quite rightly suspected that this is that same non-geographical, treacherous place where the thoughts of all sailors (and not only them!) inexplicably converge in a free and most service time. As a result of this, accidents, breakdowns occur, casualties and destruction occur, and criminal offenses are committed.

HAT WITH A HANDLE - winter headdress of a captain of the 1st rank and a Navy colonel made of black astrakhan with a visor. In status and significance, it is analogous to a land colonel’s hat, therefore, even after the formal exclusion from clothing items in 1997, this element did not disappear from circulation and is obtained by newly minted captains of the 1st rank by hook or by crook, from secret reserves or is sewn to order from folk craftsmen , instantly filling this niche in the emerging demand with their supply. They say that many of them strive to get it also because the karakul in its design is externally reminiscent of and, probably, somewhat compensates for some of the convolutions of the brain that have already been lost after a long service.
SHAR – 1) a radio-transparent radome for the radar antenna on some ships. On other ships, for example on MRK, it is called very indecently, due to its distant external resemblance; 2) a document or speech containing only general phrases.

SHYLO – alcohol. A liquid desperately needed in the Navy. Seriously, for devices and equipment in conditions of dampness, incurable corrosion of metals and chronically low insulation resistance, you can’t think of anything better, nothing can replace it, at least in the foreseeable future. And also for people. A frozen, wet, drenched, chilled person (if he was also caught overboard, which sometimes happens!) cannot be drunk or warmed up with tea alone, and, of course, you cannot quickly return him to battle formation! With this “awl” you could poke a hole in the wall of misunderstanding of your needs and requirements among some specific individuals working in the supply sector, with its help solve some technical problems, as well as establish a decent level of business cooperation and human understanding with new useful people. Now, they say, these same issues are being resolved in more materially tangible (for officials) ways and means. Slowly but surely, Slavic traditions are being replaced by a Western utilitarian approach, when the traditional “treat” gives way to a banal monetary bribe.
A SHEWMAN is an item that has nothing to do with the shoemaking and sewing craft. Usually this is a flat metal flask for storing “shil”, that is, alcohol. For both personal and business use. For service use, these are canisters and even stainless steel barrels. But for personal use, these are different flat flasks. Particularly appreciated were the Severodvinsk-made 0.5 and 0.75 liter bottles, which were beautifully and reliably made and fit perfectly into the breast and side pockets of an overcoat. That is why flat flasks were needed - for their ability to mimic the background of the relief of a soldier’s chest or stomach. But they were sold only in Severodvinsk. Therefore, they were also ordered when parked “at the factory” in other workshops. As a rule, they cost “volume for volume,” that is, for a 0.5 liter flask you had to give the craftsman a bottle of alcohol. Now there are heaps of them in every store, and they were made somewhere abroad. But those were still better... This was another ready-made niche in the market, but hopelessly missed by our light industry.
SEWING AND SOAP ACCESSORIES - “personal hygiene items” - soap, toothbrush, toothpaste, washcloth, razor, etc. “Small gentleman’s set.”

ECOLOGICAL FOOTBALL is an event associated with attempts to drive away a dirty oil stain discovered early in the morning from one’s side to someone else’s, so that the bosses do not accuse the ship’s command of negligence and take punitive measures against it, which provokes the organization of various troubles down to the last bilge watchman. It is produced using water pressure from a fire hose, which is operated by a pair of sailors from the warhead-5. However, on neighboring ships they also do not have the slightest desire to admit their involvement in the origin of this oil or fuel and carry out a similar operation, trying to drive the stain back. This continues until it drifts somewhere. Let's say, to the third ship or to the neighboring pier.
ECOLOGIST – 1) an officer or military official dealing with environmental issues in garrisons, who, with varying degrees of success, fights off attacks from civilian ecologists, inspectors and public organizations, convincing them by personal example not to believe their eyes; 2) that officer who himself does not smoke and poisons the lives of all his smoking subordinates with this shortcoming, not allowing them to smoke in warm and comfortable places, and also giving some a reason for remorse associated with their inability to give up a bad habit.

EGG YOLK is a requirement for the quality of tidy on deck. “So that it shines like an egg yolk!” - said the boatswain. This shine was achieved by frantically rubbing the wooden covering of the upper deck with crushed brick and other clever means. Their recipe was a kind of “technical secret” of a good chief boatswain. But this only made sense in relation to the wooden covering, which the last of the ships of our Navy possessed were light cruisers, in other words, the last classic artillery cruisers of the Soviet Navy. This expression lived on for some time, which had to be ironized. A black steel deck can be brought to the color of yolk, for example, only by causing it to somehow quickly rust
YASHKA - anchor. Expressions: stand on the “yashka”, give the “yashka”, throw the “yashka”, etc.
| | GENERAL PROVISIONS
8. The main combat purpose of the ship is to defeat enemy forces and means through combat action.
The organization of a ship is built in accordance with its combat mission based on the tasks solved by a given class (subclass) of ships. The organizational and staffing structure of a ship is established by its staff.
9. At the head of the ship is ship commander. The following are assigned to assist the ship's commander:
- senior assistant (assistant), being the first deputy commander of the ship,
- deputies And assistants, determined by the ship's staff.
The entire personnel of the ship constitutes its crew.
10. In order to best use weapons and the use of technical means in combat, combat units and services are created on ships:
On individual ships, depending on their specialization and design features, other services may be created.
11. Combat units and services, depending on the rank of the ship, are divided into divisions, groups, batteries and teams (sections) in accordance with the ship's staff.
Combat units, divisions (groups, batteries) are headed by their commanders, and services are headed by chiefs.
12. On ships of 2nd, 3rd and 4th ranks, one officer may be entrusted with command of two or more combat units or services.
13. The primary regular structural units of the ship’s personnel are departments. They are led by squad commanders. Sections can be organized into teams led by team leaders.
14. To ensure the daily activities of surface ships of ranks 1, 2 and 3, units that are not part of the combat units (services) are created.
The functions of the boatswain's crew on submarines are performed by a team of helmsmen and signalmen.
15. For combat, the ship's personnel are distributed among command posts and combat posts.
Personnel who are not registered for combat alert at combat posts of their combat units (services) are signed for combat posts of other combat units (services). From the moment a combat alert (drill alert) is declared, he comes under the command of his superiors in accordance with the combat alert schedule, and after it is cleared, he returns to the subordination of his superiors, under whose leadership he carries out his daily service.
COMMAND POINTS AND COMBAT POSTS
16. Command post (CP) is a place equipped with the necessary control equipment, from where the commander directs the actions of the personnel of his subordinate units, the use of weapons, the use of technical means and the fight for survivability, and also maintains communication with the senior commander and interacting units.
The ship's commander's command post is chief command ship point and is called GKP, and on rank 4 ships, where there is only one command post - KP.
In case of failure of the main command post, a reserve command post (ZCP) is created, which is equipped with backup means of ship control and communications. For the same purposes, combat units (services) can be equipped with reserve points (SP).
On certain ship projects it is created central command point (CPC), designed for collecting, processing and analyzing situational data and headed by the senior assistant commander of the ship.
17. Combat post (BP) is a place on a ship with weapons or technical equipment on it that have a specific combat purpose, where personnel use and maintain them.
The combat post is headed by combat post commander.
18. All command posts and combat posts on ships must have names, designations and serial numbers, which are determined by Appendix 1 to this Charter.
On submarines, command posts are numbered in each combat unit (service) in numerical order from bow to stern. Submarine combat station numbers consist of two or three characters (numbers or letters). The first digits (one or two) indicate the compartment number, the last digit (second or third digit or letter) indicates that the combat post belongs to the combat unit (service).
The combat posts of the missile warhead are assigned numbers regardless of their location in the compartments: 20, 30, 40, etc., starting from the bow of the submarine. The numbers of combat posts of auxiliary mechanisms correspond to the numbers of compartments.
On surface ships command posts and combat posts are numbered in each combat unit (service, division) in numerical order from the bow of the ship to the stern and from top to bottom along superstructures, decks and platforms.
On surface ships of the 4th rank, where combat units and services are not provided for by the staff, combat posts are numbered in the general order of increasing numbers throughout the ship.
COMBAT NUMBER
19. In accordance with the combat organization of the ship, midshipmen, foremen and sailors are assigned combat numbers, which are entered in personnel numbering sheet.
The combat number consists of three parts:
The first part (number or letter) indicates in which combat unit (service) the midshipman, petty officer or sailor is located according to the combat alert schedule;
The second part (one, two or three digits) indicates the number of the combat post where the midshipman, petty officer or sailor is located according to the combat alert schedule;
The third part (two digits) determines whether the midshipman, petty officer or sailor belongs to the combat shift; the first digit indicates the number of the combat shift, the second digit is the serial number of the midshipman, sergeant major or sailor in the shift.
Combat shifts are assigned the following numbers:
First combat shift - 1, 5, 7;
Second combat shift - 2, 4, 8;
Third combat shift - 3, 6, 9.
20. The combat number for wearing on the work clothes of petty officers and sailors is made of white durable material and sewn onto the left outer pocket, the inscription is applied with black paint.
For petty officers and sailors who are not allowed to perform duties in their position, as well as for cadets and trainees undergoing internship on a ship, the number “0” (zero) is placed before the first digit (letter) of the combat number.
On the special uniforms of all officers and midshipmen there is an inscription indicating the short name of the position.
The height of the numbers and letters of the combat number (inscription) must be 30 millimeters.
21. Midshipmen, foremen and sailors receive a “Combat Number” book, which indicates their place and responsibilities on all ship schedules, as well as the numbers of the personal weapons, gas masks, etc. assigned to them.
“Combat Number” books are strictly registered. When leaving ashore, the books are handed over to the persons on duty and are returned upon submission of the notice of dismissal.
SHIP SCHEDULES22. Ship schedules are drawn up for the purpose of distributing personnel to command posts and combat posts for the use of weapons and the use of the ship’s technical equipment, as well as for performing other systematically recurring ship activities and work.
Ship schedules are divided into combat and everyday.
23.The main document defining the organization of a ship in battle is combat alert schedule. This schedule is the basis of all other ship schedules.
24. The ship's personnel are distributed among command posts and combat posts taking into account their specialty, level of training, and physical qualities. The distribution is aimed at ensuring the most effective use of weapons and the use of the ship's technical equipment in combat, the fight for the survivability of the ship and the interchangeability of personnel.
25. Each ship officer in battle must have two deputies. This provision applies equally to midshipmen and foremen performing particularly responsible duties.
The remaining midshipmen, foremen and sailors must each have one deputy. Deputies are indicated in the combat alert schedule and are prepared accordingly.
The commander of a ship in battle after the senior assistant (assistant) commander is replaced by the ship's officers in the order determined by order ship commander.
26. The draft initial alert schedule for the lead ship of each series is drawn up by the General Staff Military Navy.
For non-serial ships, the initial combat alert schedule is developed by the ship's officers under the guidance of the formation headquarters based on the personnel manning sheet included in the ship's technical documentation.
During the construction (modernization) of the ship, commanders of combat units and heads of services, under the leadership of the senior assistant (assistant) of the ship commander and with the participation of flagship specialists and the deputy commander for the electromechanical part of their formation, finalize the combat alert schedule. At the same time, they take into account the changes that have occurred in weapons, technical equipment and their location on the ship.
The modified combat alert schedule is approved by the formation commander.
Based on the approved combat alert schedule on the ship, all other ship schedules provided for and . of this charter, and combat instructions.
27.

Photo chronicle book: “The legendary BOD “Fierce” DKBF 1971-1974.”
Chapter 760. Baltiysk naval base. BOD "Ferocious". Combat communications unit (BC-4). 11/15/1972.
Photo illustration from the archive of Yuri Vasilievich Kazennov (radio telegraph operator of the warhead of the BPK "Ferocious", service period 11/16/1970 - November 1973):
Early spring 1972. Excursion of personnel of BC-1 and BC-4 to Kaliningrad, to the destroyed Cathedral to the tomb of E. Kant.
Top row from left to right: Alexander Suvorov - helmsman of BC-1, Yuri Kazennov - radio telegraph operator of BC-4, Ivan Kryuchkov - signalman of BC-4, Boris Anosov - radio telegraph operator of BC-4; bottom row from left to right: Nikolay Surusov - radiotelegraph operator of BC-4, Alexander Turko (Vladimir Timoshenko?) - signalmen of BC-4, Lieutenant Andrey Stepanovich Drobot - commander of BC-4, Alexander Chervyakov - radiotelegraphist of BC-4, Alexander Pribylov – mechanic of TF ZAS, Grigory Bulat – senior. sailor, crew of electricians for navigating BC-1, Viktor Petchenko – radiotelegraph operator of BC-4, Alevtin Klykov – radiotelegraph operator of BC-4.
In the previous one:
The author knew almost all the midshipmen of the BC-3, communicated in the service and on topics of political studies, but friendly communication developed only with some of the Romanian midshipmen - Anatoly Dvorsky (formally replaced me as the ship’s Komsomol organizer), Vladimir Sechko and Mikhail Lyubonko, with which we had the opportunity to once again organize the “baptism” of the BOD “Fierce”...
However, due to the natural connection between the signalmen-observers and the helmsmen-navigators (BC-1) and therefore we “quartered” in the same cockpit with the signalmen, the author, of course, was more friendly with the sailors and foremen of the combat communications unit (BC-4) .
The combat communications unit (BC-4) is “an organizational unit of the ship’s crew, which is responsible for the concentration of technical communications equipment designed to ensure uninterrupted transmission and receipt of information.” Previously, the BC-4 had a different name - “surveillance and communications combat unit.”
The communications warhead (BC-4) is designed to provide the ship with uninterrupted external communications with the command, interacting ships and units, to receive alerts and transmit reports, as well as to interfere with the operation of enemy communications equipment. Warhead-4 personnel (radio telegraphists, signalmen, radio technicians, etc.) maintain radio and radio relay communications, wired, visual and other communications.
Best of all, professionally and thoroughly accurately, the combat communications unit of the BOD “Svirepy” was told in the book “Ferocious” on Guard of the Fatherland” by its first commander, captain 2nd rank in the reserve Andrei Stepanovich Drobot (period of service on the BOD “Ferocious” - February 1972 - August 1977).
The Ferocious BOD, like all Project 1135 ships of the Burevestnik class, was equipped with the most modern communications equipment, including:
four radio transmitters – HF range R-652 “Pike”, R-654 “Perch” - 2 and SW range R-653 “Shkval”;
nine radio receivers - HF range R-678 "Brusnika" - 5, R-675 "Oniks" - 1, all-wave - R-677 "Whirlwind" - 1 and "Volna-K" - 1;
radio stations: VHF range – R-619 “Graphite” - 4, R-105 – 2, R-770 “Triton” - 1, UHF range R-618 – 1;
signalman radio station R-622 “Kit”;
underwater sound communication station MG-26;
special communication equipment – 9 units (SLH-2, BP-2, TF-4, SBD-1);
ultra-high-speed communication equipment (SBD) – 2 units (R-062 “Quickness”, R-758 “Akula”); fax equipment "Ladoga" - 1;
relay-type communication switch “Distance”;
loud-speaking ship communications "Larch";
two visual (light) communication spotlights PMS-45, lighting devices – MSNP-125 and MSNP-250 (total quantity 4 pcs);
signal and spot lights, set of signal flags, signal flags, lanterns and signal flares.
To monitor the surface and air situation, the Ferocious BOD had sets of naval binoculars, as well as two VBP-451M binocular periscope sights installed in the ship's wheelhouse on the left and right sides.
These sights had a complex device filled with light filters, devices and mechanisms that made it possible to observe the situation at any time of the day. I used our VBP-451M sights to photograph ships of the “probable enemy” through their eyepieces, and one day I was lucky to photograph a NATO destroyer that went out for exercises in the coastal waters of the North Sea, which, in violation of the international treaties of the USSR and NATO on the Baltic Sea, had anti-ship missile weapons ...
The BOD "Ferocious" had 5 combat radio communication posts: a receiving radio center, a transmitting radio center, a post for typing telegraph classified communications, a post for classified telephone communications and a broadcast radio room. In addition, the ship was additionally equipped with a classified auditory communications post and a radio relay communications post.
One of the combat radio communication posts of the BC-4 BPK “Svirepy” was located next to the chart room in the main command post (main command post) and I often talked with the radio operators who were on duty here, listening and recording weather data, messages, and just listening to music in moments of calm. Sometimes we secretly listened to the “enemy voices” of Radio Liberty and Voice of America to find out alternative news...
One day in the summer of 1973 (after the arrival of new reinforcements), our omnipresent political officer, captain 3rd rank D.V. Wartkin, found on a table in the radio center a thick multi-page notebook forgotten by someone, in which the radio frequencies of all “enemy” radio stations broadcasting news and propaganda against the USSR were written down in small, beady and neat handwriting...
The scandal and “showdown”, the investigation and “search” on the ship because of this “spy notebook” were enormous. Dmitry Vasilyevich Borodavkin was very proud of the fact that he was able to “reveal enemy anti-Soviet activities on a warship.” Perhaps that is why, before the first combat service, a wonderful, handsome and strong sailor of German origin with the unusual surname Ris was decommissioned from the ship...
Yes, communication on a warship has always and at all times been the most important and secret matter, because: “He who knows wins”, “He who is forewarned is forearmed”, “Loss of communication is loss of control”, “Without communication and there is no control”, “If you know, then you win.” That is why on a ship and in a naval combat campaign it is very important to receive and transmit a message on time, and also to prevent the enemy from intercepting and deciphering your message, information...
Of all the combat posts of the BC-4 BOD “Ferocious”, I had a chance to visit only two - the radio center in the GKP and the broadcast radio room. Other sailors, midshipmen and officers, except for the sailors and the commander of the warhead-4, as well as the commander of the ship, the political officer and SPS specialists, during the entire period of service it was impossible and impossible for them to even glance briefly at the combat posts of the combat communications unit (warhead-4), and this Right…
A ship without communication with command posts, with other warships, submarines and our aircraft on the high seas becomes blind, deaf, dumb and... helpless. A ship without communications and control can only honorably fulfill its combat mission, independently detect the enemy, engage him in battle, inflict as much damage as possible on the enemy, and, having exhausted its combat resources, survive, returning to his native shore. This was often the case during the Great Patriotic War with submariners...
The Project 1135 Burevestnik-class ships were equipped with several communication systems that ensure reliable communication via several radio channels simultaneously. At the same time, the connection was protected from interference and eavesdropping, ultra-fast or normal (in real time). So we will never under any circumstances environment were not left without communication, and therefore without control.
True, the communication is not always clear, because the transmission of messages through any types and forms of communication is always a game of “incomprehension” (interpretation of messages). Here are the classic jokes from BCh-4 signalmen:
Radio operators! Request port Toros wiring, the watch officer requests.
- Toros is in touch; he doesn’t know anything about vodka, he only drinks port wine! - radio operators report.
The mottos of signalmen: “The louder you shout, the farther you can hear”, “Avoid accidental communication”, “For communication without marriage!”
What can happen due to distortion of information when receiving and transmitting communications messages is well illustrated by this case from the combat practice of the crew of the Ferocious BOD...
One day in the summer of 1973, while practicing course tasks “K-1” and “K-2”, one of the combat posts of the BC-2 air defense system “Osa-M” received a telephone message, because of which we were unable to complete the combat training mission on time . The midshipman, who received this message by phone, swore and swore that they were calling from the Civil Command, but did not introduce themselves, and he did not recognize the speaker by the voice...
The “showdown” of this unusual case was very serious, thorough, and long. Almost everyone directly or indirectly involved or possibly (probably) involved in this telephone intra-ship message was interviewed, the fact of which was confirmed by all the sailors and foremen who were with that unfortunate midshipman at the combat post.
As a result, an order was issued not only from the commander of the ship, but also from the commander of the missile ship division, prohibiting from now on speaking on the telephone or over the GCS (public address system) without first introducing the interlocutors, and also obliging the recording on a multi-channel tape recorder of all messages on internal ship communications during training and combat alerts.
Since then, each of the sailors, foremen, midshipmen and officers of the BOD “Ferocious” always said during negotiations via communications, for example: “This is sailor Suvorov” or “I’m listening, sailor Suvorov” (followed by some message).
Tape-recording of negotiations over in-ship communications guaranteed the accuracy and fairness of subsequent “showdowns” or investigations in the event of any “emergency.” Such a system of intra-ship negotiations taught the entire crew of the BOD "Ferocious" brevity and clarity, accuracy and rigor in transmitting information and messages to each other, contributed to increasing military discipline, ensuring the safety of the ship and its combat effectiveness.
The only person on the BOD “Ferocious” who did not introduce himself during intra-ship telephone conversations, but immediately said what he needed, was the ship’s commander, captain 3rd rank Evgeniy Petrovich Nazarov. He usually called me in the “lenkayuta” and briefly said: “Come to me,” and I always angrily doubted whether it was the commander calling or one of his friends joking like that...
Replaced D.V. Wartkina in the position of political officer, senior lieutenant A.V. Merzlyakov also tried to call me at Lenkayut and not introduce himself, but I invariably asked him on the phone: “Who’s calling?” and if he did not answer, as was required by order of the ship’s commander, then I hung up the phone. Alexander Vasilyevich was furious, he ran to the “lenkayut” himself, yelled at me, but I showed him the order and he, gritting his teeth, was forced to obey. What is due to Jupiter is not due to other “bulls”...
I was categorically a supporter of rigor in matters of ensuring reliability and accuracy of communication, because all the troubles in life come from misunderstanding, from incorrect interpretation of messages, signs, information. Therefore, it is correct that communications on Navy ships is a branch of military service closed to the uninitiated and those without special clearance.
Even in Warhead-4 itself, each sailor, petty officer or midshipman has the right of access only to his combat post, to his secret journals and documents. Only the commander of the ship and the deputy commander of the ship for political affairs have the right to visit all combat posts of the combat communications unit (BC-4) (and then only in cases specified by the charter). The rest communicate with signalmen located at their combat posts only through special windows in waterproof and armored doors, which are locked with special complex encryption locks.
Due to the closed nature of the service and the official activities of signalmen, they are often called “cleanies,” hinting that they, like intellectuals, do nothing except listen to the broadcast, chat on microphones and bang their telegraph keys or encryption keys like woodpeckers. typewriters.
The only signalmen of the BC-4, whose work is visible to everyone, are the signalmen, who, on the contrary, enjoy respect and recognition from everyone, because they really, in full view of everyone, wave flags, “knock” with lights, signal with signal flags and are not in cozy, warm combat posts, and outside, always on his signal bridge of the central superstructure along the sides of the ship.
In fact, the warhead-4 BOD "Ferocious" provided reliable auditory telephone, telegraph, direct-printing and ultra-high-speed communications in open and secret mode, communication "with the shore" from anywhere in the World Ocean in all ranges.
The receiving radio center was located in the central superstructure (GKP); the transmitting communications post is on the main deck. Portable radio stations with autonomous power sources provided communication from the ship's boat and boat.
The means of physical output of communication signals were short-wave whip antennas of the AR-6, AR-10 type, VHF antennas and an inclined antenna “Luch”, small and large signal spotlights, signal and spot lights, as well as a set of signal flags and flags.
I really hope that my brother friends, signalmen and radio operators, radio telegraphists and SPS specialists will complement me and tell me a lot of interesting things about the combat communications unit, share details and tell stories about signalmen and signalman-observers.
The first commander of the warhead-4 BPC “Ferocious” was Lieutenant Andrei Stepanovich Drobot (February 1972 – August 1977), author and compiler of the book “Ferocious” on Guard of the Fatherland.”
The first foreman of the BC-4 radiotelegraph team was midshipman Vladimir Nikolaevich Sergeev (September 1972 - August 1977). He will once again return to the crew of the Ferocious BOD in the period November 1981 - February 1982.
Almost the entire personnel of the sailors and foremen of the BC-4 BOD “Ferocious” period 1972-1974 were my friends in the service -
