Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Consider this sentence: "UNODIR, COMDESRON 9 will COMEX 300700Z AUG using VTF and BD AMMO for all WEPSYS unless CASREP."
Clearly you understand that this means: "Unless otherwise directed, the commander of destroyer squadron nine will commence the exercise at 7 o'clock in the morning on 30 August using variable time fuze and base detonating ammunition for all weapons systems unless they have been reported as nonfunctioning on a standard Navy casualty report."
All you need to know is contained in these 469 pages. There are so many definitions here, that I doubt even the most seasoned sailor knows them all. It makes fascinating reading.
Some of the abbreviations are pretty confusing in their own right.
SAR can mean:
Sea-Air Rescue
Search and Rescue
Selected Acquisition Reports
Selected Air Reserve
Special Aeronautical Requirements
Standard Average and Range
Substance Abuse Report
Supply Activity Report
Synthetic Aperture Radar.
