One of my brother QMCs is probably eating it too.

I wonder if the ship was running electronic navigation or a pile of charts on the DDRT. That will be interesting to a lot of us.

I couldn’t tell you what they have now but my last ship was the same class. When I retired two years ago we still had paper charts and were pretty far down on the list for getting the certified paperless system. The shooters were first in line. We did have an electronic chart display that ran on a laptop with multiple displays but it was strictly for “situational awareness” only. Still it was a very useful tool.
