CIC Location in an Arleigh Burke-Class DDG?

Post by Kanastrous »

Okay...so we're trying to recall whether the CIC was located on the second deck (one level down from the flush deck) or the third deck (two levels down).

Anyone who's served on an Arleigh Burke-class ship want to jog my memory? I think it was on the third deck but want to confirm (yes, a dozen of us went on the survey and none of us can remember for sure...)

The CIC on a CG is located on the O2 level. :)

Just to make sure you know, that is not necessarily where it's located on a DDG. :P

Why not just put it in the most wrong place as possible and get some angry DDG-assigned sailors to send you some letters? :P
I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

The armored trunk leads into the roof of the CIC compartment. This diagram is a bit simplified but that location is correct.

Because when I was aboard they extracted a promise that for once in a movie we'd try and get the ship right. Or at least as right as possible.

Thanks, Skimmer!
