target course zero for zero very well open the outer doors for it I intend to shoot on the next observation doors now sir it was ready in all respects very well final bearing and shoot up scope very park disco sad shoot fire good run secure the equipment we'll do another exercise tomorrow a battle of training devices at New London Connecticut submarine errs use an attack trainer to sink a mythical destroyer at Newport Rhode Island an anti-submarine warfare trainer teaches destroyer men how to sink submarines while engineering trainees at Great Lakes Illinois operate a full-scale destroyer proportion plant set up ashore [Music] [Applause] at naval schools across the United States on intricate computer-controlled trainers on giant mock-ups the Navy teaches its men the wizardry of modern weapons their skills for the seats [Music] south 69 you recruit training where a man has taught the basic skills for the seat he learns to be part of the team [Applause] in choirs the fundamentals of military life he begins to take part in his company and in himself [Music] [Applause] [Applause] today's recruit training introduces the man to the many and varied Navy skills which are available to him he learns where he might fit in his training provides the knowledge of all types of aircraft construction experience with welding the Navy begins to learn - where each man belongs he's tested he's counseled he's guided toward a career plan that suits his interest and his abilities your shop practice score bears out your mechanical school now since you were guaranteed a school in the aviation field opponent listen it is recommended that you consider one of the Navy's aviation mechanical schools upon completion number two training the recruit becomes a seaman ready for life in the Navy he may be heading for his first shift and further training at sea or he may move on immediately to a technical school his Navy career is underway no skills for the seaman first you trained the man then the team courses begin with fundamentals to give the student a solid foundation for more specialized training later on relationship between current and voltage in this circuit will be very important to you in your role as a fire control technician since our make carefully designed training aids up to make even difficult subjects more understandable using a voltage which you can see on the voltmeter here proportional to the amount that the c-axis rotor was displaced programmed instruction is designed to make training more interesting and effective questions are always welcome there the best indication as to how well the lesson is really being understood are there any questions Petrovsky yeah what affective bias have on quiescent current as you'll see as I increase my negative blast this will cause the current flow on my load whining to decrease to zero that's my stop the student progresses from the simple to the complex until he has mastered the equipment he will operate and maintain the antenna sweeps across the shoreline we'll be able to see on the scopes the building Sameer to Waukegan if it weren't so foggy I would be able to see these same buildings through the window [Music] see duty now and the Sailor practices the skills he learned ashore some scans the ocean depths with sonar identifying objects by sound even listening in on the private conversations of porpoises others carry out the vital duties of navigation and communications this is Echo track for one to read one for five tack one eight five out with training and experience come promotions greater responsibility the challenge of leadership then new skills for the seeds further training at schools which blend the individual skills of many men into a maybe team or 560 angels 34 station over Red Baron to do your playmates airborne I'll join you on station the performance of one man affects everyone on the team each learns what it means to be entrusted with the lives and safety of others wherever possible students trained on real equipment bridge control standard speed operating procedures are practiced until they become second nature sometimes the emphasis on total realism requires the duplication of whole sections of ships this trainer teaches students how to prepare and launch the terrier guided missile [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Applause] study of course three four zero sir very well make a death 101 on her feet aye sir make it up 100 feet eight degree up bubble 100 feet Isis degree of eliezer other men learned the complex task of controlling a nuclear submarine every movement of an actual submarine can be simulated and every procedure practice to perfection because situations can be created that would be dangerous or impractical and operating submarine the student learns more than he could from actual shipboard experience and in a shorter time one of the most complex underwater activities of all these men are practicing an underwater launching of a Polaris missile it calls for the precise coordination of many separate operations at different locations set condition 1sq for tactical launcher lower level lower level rig for one is kid monitoring condition 1sq supervisor I weapon supervisor fire control condition 1sq providers eye on weapons or weapon systems and condition 1sq webs con you have permission to fire [Music] [Applause] [Music] all stations launched only a drill yes but each step is as carefully performed as though it were the real thing as far as they're concerned the only difference is that instead of a missile they'll be firing tons of water [Music] Navy men have opportunities to participate in many unique programs this is a pilotless helicopter originally introduced as a shipboard anti-submarine weapon system and now being tested for other applications men are trained to control the helicopter for today's operational missions and for future uses maintenance personnel are trained to check out the aircraft and prepare it for flight sir Oh in this nation let's listen to lots permission granted gyros in Beliveau release [Music] a helicopter with a past and with a potential fighting forest fires delivering supplies aiding and search-and-rescue for all his technical know-how today's Navy man must first of all be a sailor trained in the skills of the sea this means above all protecting and defending the ship [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Applause] [Music] once they aim to hit the draw but modern fire control techniques are so accurate that now the guns are adjusted to aim behind the drone to save it for another day it isn't as much fun but it saves a lot of money firefighting schools provide training that enables Navy men to meet emergencies promptly and with confidence in combating a fire involving a weapon you must always try to keep the internal temperature of the weapon cool down below 300 degrees ok gentlemen man your hose move out [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] usf buttercup a trainer used to teach damage control [Applause] hit portside hint portside star chair investigation [Applause] evaluation is simple if you keep the ship afloat you pass if it sinks you fail thudding apartment 2 - 4 - 0 - slim clarified his - - paint Nashua Beach [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] the lessons learned on Buttercup have saved many a good ship and the good many lives all this training takes a lot of thought and effort behind the scene skilled technicians and training specialists produce teaching materials and training aids of all kinds to show how things work or to make concepts easier to understand often teaching problems are solved by specially designed trainers these trainers range from fairly simple devices illustrating fundamental concepts to complex trainers which simulate environments to duplicate every situation that could possibly be encountered at sea [Music] okay chief we're ready to do the resistor shot now instructional television has found many important uses here an expert in a technical field is teaching several classes simultaneously exceeded excessive current in an electrical circuit will cause abnormal heating which could result in circuit damage or a fire [Music] the lesson is also recorded on magnetic tape so it can be used over and over whenever needed tiny devices and their operations are scanned by television and close-up views are brought to entire classes where formerly only one or two students could watch at a time television also helps to teach the teachers the first which is pneumatic as you can see remember pneumatic is orange and black I'll make that origin blue orange and blue be sure you check your notes that is orange and blue for pneumatic pneumatic symbols on the right hand side is this weave pattern remember we said to weave pattern was for colored by people to distinguish the lines they're working with our last one is hydraulic hydraulic is blue and yellow and a simple pattern is circles once again remember what this pattern is for instant playback for a student instructive seeing ourselves as others see us may be difficult at times but self-evaluation improves the quality of instruction [Applause] [Music] although they come to be trained the Navy knows that its students spend more hours outside the classroom than in it living quarters are comfortable and modern 20 of room for homework and for relaxation nearby checkmate [Music] anyone who thinks Navy life is all working no play should drop by the club some evening [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] while most of these men their training will be the most challenging exciting and rewarding time of their lives [Music] [Applause] when they come on board they'll be ready ready to shoulder their share of the Navy's ultimate responsibilities safeguarding our nation's security on above and beneath the oceans of the world [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Applause]
