Aware of this for a while. Looked interesting to me. Random choice by me this day today to view it for first time
Dialog early in the video is making me look at some topic, completely unrelated, I remember from the mainstream-media I monitor daily
Just now discovered the premiere date of "Sarah's Oil"
If this is the first blog-post here on my blog by me that you are reading then you may become disoriented by my format for my reports. I throw in other stuff for scope of the larger issue as I perceive it. Also, I am not a writer. People with better grammar might find this annoying
Also in this note, certain key details are not revealed by me. You would have to know what it means, what I think it means.
'Why' it is working out this way is still a mystery to me. The people causing it - and those people are most likely not the people it identifies - must certainly understand I am working on this. So that means something or it means nothing because they know there is vastly more of this pattern in my original-work that I am not discovering. They are flooding the world with a consistent pattern. It becomes historical.
THEY would also have to make corrections IF I begin creating false interpretations
BECAUSE it is THEIR work. I have nothing to do with it. I am in contact with none.

REPORT ON SPYING RELEASED BY C.I.A.
By NICHOLAS M. HORROCK JULY 9, 1975
WASHINGTON, July 8—The Central Intelligence Agency made a major build-up of its domestic intelligence operation during the Administration of President Nixon, according to documents released by the C.I.A. for the first time tonight.
In an unexpected disclosure, the C.I.A. made public a report that its director, William E. Colby, made to President Ford last Dec. 24. This report is a portion of an internal analysis of the agency's involvement in illegal domestic intelligence operations and other wrongdoing compiled at the request of Mr. Colby's predecessor, James R. Schlesinger, in May, 1973. Mr. Schlesinger is now the Secretary of Defense.
Symington Briefed
According to these newly released documents, two Congressional figures, Senator Stuart Symington, Democrat of Mis souri, and Representative Lucien N. Nedzi, Democrat of Michigan, were briefed on the details more than two years ago.
This new material contained several disclosures:
According to a memorandum dated June 1, 1972, the major increase in the staff and facilities of the Special Operations Group came after Mr. Nixon had taken office on Jan. 20, 1969. The unit was the core of a domestic C.I.A. intelligence operation that has come under criticism for violating the agency's legal charter, which forbids the C.I.A. to engage in spying within the United States.

‘Why Are You So Rude?’ Hegseth Scolds NBC Reporter Who Cut Him Off as He Called on Someone Else
Charlie Nash Wed, April 8, 2026 at 6:34 AM PDT 2 min read
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth scolded an NBC News correspondent on Wednesday after she tried to ask him a question about Iranian missiles while Hegseth was calling on another reporter.
During a press briefing at the Pentagon, which saw Hegseth field questions about the Trump administration’s ceasefire with Iran, the secretary of defense called on Daily Caller White House correspondent Reagan Reese to ask the next question.
After Senior NBC News Correspondent Courtney Kube interrupted Reese, shouting out her own question about Iran launching missiles, Hegseth snapped, “Excuse me, why are you so rude? Just wait. I’m calling on people.”
He added: “So nasty.”
“Thank you, Secretary Hegseth,” replied Reese. “Yesterday, in the president’s Truth Social, he threatened to wipe out a civilization. That statement elicited a huge response in America. If Iran did not come to the table and make a deal yesterday by the deadline, was the president really prepared to wipe out Iran entirely?”
Hegseth responded, “Like I said, we had a target set, locked and loaded. Infrastructure, bridges, power plants. Remember, this is a terror regime, a military regime, use all these things for dual use to fund their military, to fund their terror campus. We had a lot of legitimate targets. They knew exactly the scope of what we were capable of.”
“We hit some military targets on Kharg, which is a bit of a signal. They can’t defend it, and so Iran ultimately understood their ability, their future to produce, to generate power, to fuel their terrorist regime was in our hands, was in President Trump’s hands,” he continued. “That’s why they came to the table. He ultimately said, ‘We can take it all from you. Your ability to export energy will be taken away and the United States Military has the ability to strike those things with impunity.’ That type of threat is what brought them to the place where they effectively say, ‘OK, we want to cut this deal.'”

Trump warns a 'whole civilization will die tonight' if a deal with Iran isn't reached
BASSEM MROUE, JON GAMBRELL, DAVID RISING and SAMY MAGDY Updated Mon, April 6, 2026 at 9:20 PM PDT 7 min read
Trump has extended previous deadlines but suggested the one set for 8 p.m. in Washington was final, and the rhetoric on both sides reached a fever pitch, leaving Iranians on edge. Trump threatened to destroy all of Iran’s power plants and bridges if Tehran does not allow traffic to fully resume in the strait, through which a fifth of the world’s oil transits in peacetime.

Saudi Arabia and Iran
Q. Mr. President, you said a few minutes ago that you would not allow, you would not permit what happened in Iran several years ago to happen in Saudi Arabia. How would you prevent that? Would you take military intervention if that was necessary to prevent it?
The President. I'm not going to talk about the specifics of how we would do it, except to say that in Iran, I think the United States has to take some responsibility for what happened there with some very shortsighted policies that let a situation come to a boiling point, that there was no need to do that.
But in Saudi Arabia, I just would call to your attention that it's not only the United States, it's the whole Western World. There is no way, as long as Saudi Arabia and the OPEC nations there in the East and Saudi Arabia's the most important provide the bulk of the energy that is needed to turn the wheels of industry in the Western World, there's no way that we could stand by and see that taken over by anyone that would shut off that oil.

Quotes
Hope Wilson knows there's something different about the bruised and breathless man who stumbles into the homeless shelter she runs with her mentor, Jack Parsons. He looks like a junkie, but his hands are soft and his fingernails manicured. Tom Cooper doesn't know who he is, where he is and why two well-dressed men, Vincent and Cole, are chasing him. He only knows that the small metal case that he defends so fiercely contains five vials that hold all his memories, reduced to crystal form, as well as a specially designed injector that can delete or restore those memories. With Hope's help, he uses the injector to restore his memories in an attempt to piece together his identity. But there are unforeseen consequences to this. With each injection of memories, Tom's personality becomes slightly darker. As he injects one crystal and then the next, Tom recovers his unhappy childhood and adolescence, his time in medical school and, to Hope's dismay, his memories of his marriage to his high school sweetheart Paula. With the injection of the fourth crystal, Tom remembers some terrible things.

USS Wainwright (DLG/CG-28), a Belknap-class destroyer leader, was the third ship of the United States Navy to be named for members of the Wainwright family
Fate
Wainwright was decommissioned on 10 November 1993 and was mothballed for most of a decade. On 11 June 2002 ex-Wainwright was used as a live fire target and struck by two Harpoon missiles from HMS Richmond. Remaining afloat overnight, she [sic] was attacked the next day by Royal Navy attack submarine HMS Tireless, which hit Wainright with a Spearfish torpedo, severing the bow. US aircraft then attacked her before she was scuttled with explosive charges.

41st President of the United States: 1989 - 1993
Letter on the Resignation of United States Supreme Court Associate Justice Thurgood Marshall
June 28, 1991
Dear Mr. Justice:
It is with deep regret that I acknowledge your letter of retirement from the Supreme Court effective at such time as a successor is qualified.
Our Nation is deeply indebted to you for your long and distinguished public service. Your courageous leadership in the fight for equal opportunity, exemplified by your brief and oral argument in the landmark case of Brown v. Board of Education, is a powerful example of how one person's commitment to his convictions can shape a nation's attitude on such a fundamental issue.
Your distinguished service to our country, first on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, as our Nation's 33rd Solicitor General, and capped by a great career on the Supreme Court will also be long remembered.
Barbara and I wish you happiness and every blessing in your years of retirement.
Sincerely,
George Bush

From Wikipedia
The United States Marshals Service (USMS) is a federal law enforcement agency within the U.S. Department of Justice (28 U.S.C. § 561). It is the oldest American federal law enforcement agency and was created by the Judiciary Act of 1789 during the presidency of George Washington as the Office of the United States Marshal. The USMS as it stands today was established in 1969 to provide guidance and assistance to Marshals throughout the federal judicial districts. USMS is an agency of the United States executive branch reporting to the United States Attorney-General but serves as the enforcement arm of the United States federal courts to ensure the effective operation of the judiciary and integrity of the constitution.
The Marshals Service is the primary agency for fugitive operations, the protection of officers of the Federal Judiciary

"Bart Gets an Elephant" [The Simpsons]
Original airdate in N.A.: 31-Mar-94
(from internet transcript)
Bart is inexorable: "Uh, Gentlemen, I am not leaving without my elephant." But he and Homer are both tossed out anyway. "Where's my elephant?" Bart demands at the window repeatedly. The DJs close the window, but over the song they play next, Bart's queries can still be heard faintly. At the Springfield Retirement Castle, Abe notes, "Hey, they're playing the elephant song!" Jasper loves that; it reminds him of elephants. Kent Brockman even editorializes, "So isn't that what we're all asking in our own lives -- 'where's my elephant?' I know that's what I've been asking."
At the KBBL studios, Bill and Marty's boss gives them a dressing-down.
Boss: Look, our ratings are down, and the station is being swamped with angry calls and letter-bombs. [A few letter-bombs explode in a pile] And it's all your fault!
Bill: Yes it is, ma'am.
Boss: This is the DJ 3000. It plays CDs automatically, and it has three distinct varieties of inane chatter. [presses a button]
DJ 3000: [stilted] Hey, hey. How about that weather out there? Woah! _That_ was the caller from hell. Well, hot dog! We have a weiner.
Bill: Man, that thing's great!
Marty: _Don't_ praise the machine!
Boss: If you don't get that kid an elephant by tomorrow, the DJ 3000 gets your job.
[Marty punches it]
DJ 3000: Those clowns in congress did it again. What a bunch of clowns.
Bill: [laughs] How does it keep up with the news like that?

Quayle, Gore Set Themes For Last Weeks -- Stockdale Never Answers Own Query: `Why Am I Here?'
Times News Services
It may be remembered more for its furious, even nasty partisanship than for any impact it might have on the outcome of 1992 presidential election.
But yesterday's clash of the running mates did reveal that the campaigns have decided on lines of attack for the next three weeks: President Bush against Bill Clinton's character and tax policies; Clinton against Bush's economic record; and Ross Perot against Washington politicians and their deficit.
In yesterday's debate, Vice President Dan Quayle and Sen. Al Gore Jr. of Tennessee did a better job articulating their campaigns' basic messages than President Bush and Arkansas Gov. Clinton did in Sunday's low-energy affair.
In the crossfire, retired Vice Adm. James Stockdale often seemed lost - a civilian who had wandered into a private war.
The succession of sharp clashes between Quayle and Gore over taxes, trust and character gave this debate a much rougher edge than the decorous first encounter between the presidential contenders. But traditionally, the vice-presidential debates have only minimally affected the outcome of presidential campaigns.
An ABC poll taken immediately after the debate showed Clinton leading Bush 47 percent to 38 percent, with Perot trailing at 12 percent. Those figures were virtually unchanged from a poll completed before the debate.
If yesterday's debate has any impact, some observers said, it may be to diminish the momentum Perot generated Sunday.
Although Stockdale's earthy directness occasionally echoed Perot's own success at knifing through his opponents' stilted political rhetoric, more often he appeared uncertain and overmatched; for long stretches in the free-form debate he disappeared entirely. Stockdale, a senior research fellow at the conservative Hoover Institution at Stanford University, never seemed to entirely answer the question he posed at the outset: "Why am I here?"

NASA astronaut Reid Wiseman touched after chaplain’s visit

(NewsNation) — NASA astronaut Reid Wiseman said his historic mission around the moon may have changed his personal perspective on faith and God.
“I’m not a religious person,” Reid recounted at a press conference after Artemis II returned to Earth. “But there was just no avenue to explain anything or to experience anything. So I asked for the chaplain on the Navy ship to come to visit us for a minute. And when that man walked in, I’ve never met the man in my life, I saw the cross on his collar, and I broke down in tears.”

David Drayton: You got that kid killed and I got his blood on me!
Jim: I'm sorry.
David Drayton: Jesus Christ, oh God
Jim: I'm sorry about the kid.
David Drayton: Oh God oh God oh God
Jim: We oughta get out of here
Myron: Hey man, we didn't twist his arm.
David Drayton: Yeah, he's a kid. He's supposed to be stupid. What's your excuse, huh?
[no verbal response from Jim and Myron]
David Drayton: Get outta here. Go back in the market, stay by the door. Don't say anything to anybody. Not yet.

I had forgotten it and all the other sleeping dreams from the last time I was sleeping until just now before making this post. I don't recall the other many sleeping dreams I woke from but I do remember one. I was wearing a US Marine Corps uniform and that is very unusual for a sleeping dream. I have written before over several years about seeing myself wearing a US Marine Corps uniform but as best I can now recall here sitting here at my desk there have been only two sleeping dreams featuring me wearing a US Marine Corps uniform. And one of those occurrences would have been this past day.
Those of you following along at home remember what I wrote and what I still believe - that I have no actual direct memory - no practical memory in my conscious mind of any service in the United States Marine Corps.
Everything I write here that is not consistent with my factual memory is just the thoughts in my mind.
The dream this past day is something that I can now recall only of an actor I have seen before in film and television. He is that guy who recruits "Cooper Hawkes" in that "Space: Above and Beyond" episode I have referenced here many times.
The sleeping dream I had the past day doesn't seem connected to anything I have seen him in before on television or movie.
There is something that I can almost remember about that dream but just cannot remember.
Well, the operative detail is that I could not wear my US Marine Corps uniform because of what he did. I had to be somewhere. A duty assignment or something that is so damned frustratingly elusive in my mind.
He had punched me in the chest I vaguely recall. The impact of his fist wasn't that hard but he hit an object adorning my olive-colored uniformed shirt and there was an area obviously soaked with blood and I wasn't going to be able to go anywhere looking that way.
I write about it now only because of how that was one time so infrequent seeing myself wearing a US Marine Corps uniform in a sleeping dream. Now I just remember a possible third time. That time I saw myself wearing my US Navy Cross [Navy Cross medal for valor in combat with legitimate official authority] and working in an office building chasing down a person stealing classified documents. Now I just recall another time I wrote about wearing that same medal in an elevator and that person saying he was surprised "they" let me wear it and me saying in response I was proud of my service in Bosnia.

I've rejected the ridiculousness of religion even then as a young adult.
My military identification tags, cast for me in 1984 when I was 18 years old, indicated "No preference" but that's a weaselly, indecisive response that was forced on me because that was the best option, as they gave me no option for "No religion, non-superstitious"
Those were *my* choices
No person caused me to think that way.

You sent me that photo of you and me from that day I graduated US Navy basic training in Orlando Florida in July 1984.
Do you have anyway of knowing the precise date that photo of us was taken?
I also want to know if you know the precise date we all were at the Disney park in Orlando.
My official military records tell me I left basic training on July 16th but I don't think that was the date we graduated.
My guess is we were at Disney on the 14th or the 15th. Graduation was a Friday if I remember correctly and that might have been the 13th.

LEGENDARY AMERICAN ASTRONAUT NEIL ARMSTRONG RELAUNCHES “SPACE MOUNTAIN” AT DISNEYLAND
ANAHEIM, Calif. (July 15, 2005) – We have ignition and lift-off as “Space Mountain,” rated by Americans as their favorite Disney theme park attraction in a national survey released earlier this week, blasts-off into a new era of thrills! The popular Disneyland attraction reopened today in a ceremony attended by legendary U.S. Astronaut Commander Neil Armstrong, the first man to step foot on the lunar surface of the moon (July 20, 1969). Just as he had nearly 36 years earlier on the moon, Armstrong left behind his footprints for a plaque that will be on display in the attraction commemorating his participation in the “re-launch.”

Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System
From Wikipedia
The U.S. Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System (TDRSS, pronounced "T-driss") is a network of American communications satellites (each called a tracking and data relay satellite, TDRS) and ground stations used by NASA for space communications. The system was designed to replace an existing network of ground stations that had supported all of NASA's crewed flight missions. The prime design goal was to increase the time spacecraft were in communication with the ground and improve the amount of data that could be transferred. Many Tracking and Data Relay Satellites were launched in the 1980s and 1990s

Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System
United States communications-satellite system
Also known as: TDRSS
Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System (TDRSS), American system of ten communications satellites in geosynchronous orbit that relay signals between Earth-orbiting satellites and ground facilities located at White Sands, New Mexico; Greenbelt, Maryland; Blossom Point, Maryland; and on Guam. The first satellite in the series, TDRS-A, was launched on April 5, 1983, from the space shuttle Challenger; the most recent, TDRS-M, was launched on August 18, 2017, from Cape Canaveral, Florida, by an Atlas V launch vehicle.
Prior to the introduction of the Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System (TDRSS), the National Aeronautics and Space Administration had to maintain several facilities around the world so that no satellite would be out of communication range. With the completion of the TDRSS, satellites such as the International Space Station and the Hubble Space Telescope can maintain constant contact with control centres in the United States.

As with the story overall, it has caused me to think of something new as I try to understand, because this is all real to me and I have found entertaining so far their story.
The new awareness in my mind today is about my theory formed long ago about "gravity waves"
Hardly anything one could call a "theory" because this is just random stuff I think about
That is a term I have used before to explain two important observations: conspiracy of people, for one, and "conspiracy" of weather for the second
As humans, there is absolutely nothing about us as individuals - our psyche - that exists beyond the physical, chemical molecules stored physically in the organic tissue of our human brain. That is us. That is the one and only cause of us as individual person
So, trying to explain to myself a possible method of external influence on those people I see doing weird stuff - such as people ranting that high-amplitude modulation radio waves "made him do it" - I am thinking of "gravity waves"

Astronomers find atmosphere around a solar system object that shouldn’t have one
Ashley Strickland, CNN
Mon, May 4, 2026 at 5:39 PM PDT 5 min read
Astronomers have detected a thin atmosphere around a tiny celestial body in the outer solar system for the first time — an object previously thought to be too small to support the presence of an atmosphere.
Thousands of frozen, rocky bodies called trans-Neptunian objects, or TNOs, exist in the Kuiper Belt on the edge of our solar system, remnants from its formation 4.5 billion years ago.
During a rare observation opportunity, astronomers in Japan spotted the thin shell of an atmosphere around a TNO known as (612533) 2002 XV93, according to a study published Monday in the journal Nature Astronomy.

Make-make (2005 FY9)
Breaking News
On November 21, 2012, astronomers using seven different Earth-based telescopes (including three operated by the European Southern Observatory) announced that Make-make may lack a "significant atmosphere" like Pluto or Sedna. Observed while occulting a distant star (NOMAD 1181-0235723), the dwarf planet appears to have an albedo of about 0.77, which is comparable to that of dirty snow, and is higher than that of Pluto, but lower than that of Eris. When considered with earlier observations, the new measurements indicate that Make-make has a density of 1.7 ± 0.3 grams per cubic centimeter, which enabled the astronomers to deduce that the dwarf planet has the shape and appearance of an oblate spheroid — a sphere flattened slightly at both poles — with axes of 1,430 ± 9 kilometers and 1,502 ± 45 kilometers (889 ± 6 to 933 ± 28 miles). Make-make does not appear to have a global atmosphere at a level of one thousandth of that of Pluto's atmosphere, but it may have an atmosphere that only covers part of the surface (ESO new release; and Jeff Hecht, New Scientist, November 21, 2012).

The Dwarf Planet
On July 29, 2005, a team of astronomers (including Mike Brown, Chad Trujillo, and David Rabinowitz) announced the discovery of a planetary body (2005 FY9) that appeared to be somewhat smaller than Pluto (more from the Isaac Newton Group of Telescopes and Licandro et al, 2006). The new name Makemake belongs to the god who created humanity in the South Pacific culture of Easter Island (or "Rapa Nui" in Polynesian), which was proposed by its discovery team, which discovered the object around Easter on March 31, 2005.

Site cleared for Riverfront Park fountain
By Mike Prager
The roar of a chain saw filled the air at Riverfront Park on Thursday as workers began clearing the path for construction of a new fountain at the park s entrance along Spokane Falls Boulevard.
The $1.5 million fountain designed so that people can walk and play among its many water jets is one of two large-scale improvements being undertaken on the south side of the park this year.
Workers last month removed the park s vintage gondola as part of a $2.5 million upgrade of the breathtaking ride above lower Spokane Falls and gorge.
At the fountain site at Spokane Falls Boulevard and Howard Street, a demolition crew Thursday ripped out a small food concession building and cut down two sycamore trees standing in the way of the project.
Next week, crews will begin removing pavement as part of the job of digging a 14-foot-deep hole to contain the fountain s hidden reservoir vault, said Dan Seibel, superintendent for Walker Construction of Spokane, the general contractor on the job.
A large vehicle pullout area near the Carousel is going to be blocked off during construction and will eventually become part of the fountain s pedestrian plaza. The pullout is frequently used by school groups and visitors, who will now have to go elsewhere for loading and unloading.
Work is expected to be completed in August, Seibel said. Much of the initial work on the vault system will take place below ground level.
"It's going to create a real grand entryway to the park," said Park Board President Jeff Halstead. "I think it will be a great gathering place for people."
The idea for the fountain dates to the creation of Riverfront Park in the 1970s, but it gained momentum in the 1990s when the city Park Board and Rotary Club 21 members teamed up to finance the project.
Rotary has raised $850,000 in contributions and is still seeking donations. The Park Board has authorized spending $550,000 out of a voter-approved park bond issue dating to 1999.
Proponents said the fountain will create a free summertime play feature in the heart of the city. It will also become a prominent piece of civic art with year-round displays of water, colored lights, music and even winter ice formations.
The work of Spokane artist Harold Balazs is being incorporated into columns that will support an overhead fountain sculpture. More than 150 jets capable of throwing 3,500 gallons of water a minute will send out a variable pattern of mists and streams from ground level to a height of 40 feet.
The underground vault will recapture the water and filter it so that users can safely play in the sprays. The fountain will be accessible to wheelchairs.
Perron Collaborative, of Spokane and Portland, has been heading up design of the project. It enlisted the fountain expertise of CMS Collaborative, of Santa Cruz, Calif. The electrical subcontractor on the job is Power City Electric, of Spokane. A crew from Rob's Demolition of Spokane was hired for the initial clearing Thursday.
Also this year, the parks department is going to revise the landscaping at the east end of the park where a small performance area is tucked behind trees and a low ridge. One of three wooden foot bridges is slated to receive new decking as well.

Subject: Orlando
You sent me that photo of you and me from that day I graduated US Navy basic training in Orlando Florida in July 1984.
Do you have anyway of knowing the precise date that photo of us was taken?
I also want to know if you know the precise date we all were at the Disney park in Orlando.
My official military records tell me I left basic training on July 16th but I don't think that was the date we graduated.
My guess is we were at Disney on the 14th or the 15th. Graduation was a Friday if I remember correctly and that might have been the 13th.

History
Scope Trial
The Scopes Trial, also known as a the Scopes Monkey Trial, was the 1925 prosecution of science teacher John Scopes for teaching evolution in a Tennessee public school, which a recent bill had made illegal. The trial featured two of the best-known orators of the era, William Jennings Bryan and Clarence Darrow, as opposing attorneys. The trial was viewed as an opportunity to challenge the constitutionality of the bill, to publicly advocate for the legitimacy of Darwin s theory of evolution, and to enhance the profile of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU).
BUTLER ACT
The theory of evolution, as presented by Charles Darwin and others, was a controversial concept in many quarters, even into the 20th century.
Concerted anti-evolutionist efforts in Tennessee succeeded when in 1925, the Tennessee House of Representatives was offered a bill by John W. Butler making teaching evolution a misdemeanor. The bill was passed six days later almost unanimously with no amendments.
When the ACLU received news of the bill s passage, it immediately sent out a press release offering to challenge the Butler Bill.
JOHN SCOPES
What became known as the Scopes Trial began as a publicity stunt for the town of Dayton, Tennessee.
A local businessman met with the school superintendent and a lawyer to discuss using the ACLU offer to get newspapers to write about the town. The group asked if high school science teacher John Scopes would admit to teaching evolution for the purposes of prosecution.
Scopes wasn't clear on whether he had precisely taught the subject, but was sure he d used materials that included evolution. Scopes taught physics and math, and while he said he accepted evolution, he didn t teach biology.
It was announced to newspapers the next day that Scopes had been charged with violating the Butler Act, and the town wired the ACLU to procure its services. The Tennessee press roundly criticized the town, accusing it of staging a trial for publicity.

Fire controlman
From Wikipedia
Fire controlman (abbreviated as FC) is a United States Navy occupational rating. Often confused with being fireman on board a ship, FCs actually operate advanced weapons systems, whereas Damage Controlman (DC) are actually the shipboard firefighters.
FCs typically operate weapon systems on-board surface combatant ships. They are trained in the repair, maintenance, operation and employment of weapons such as the Tomahawk missile system, the close-in weapons system, the 5"/54 caliber Mark 45 gun weapon system and its associated MK86 or MK160 gun fire control system, the MK92 gun fire control system (on frigates) the Sea Sparrow missile system, and the Harpoon missile systems. These include their associated computer and sensor packages. Their job is somewhat unusual in that they are trained to troubleshoot and repair their systems, as well as operate them. These responsibilities are typically split up between different ratings for various types of electronic equipment.
In essence, they operate the weapons sensors and tracking devices, from first detection through firing the weapons, to defend the ship against tactical threats or to make offensive strikes against hostile targets.
Another area of responsibility for FCs is the Aegis weapon system, which includes one of the most powerful air-search sea-based radars, the SPY-1, as well the MK99 fire control system, used for terminal guidance of Standard missiles, and the Aegis computer suite.
History
According to the official history documented by the U.S. Navy, the fire controlman rating was established in 1941, when it was split off from the gunner's mate rating. It was actually created much earlier than this, as US Navy Muster Reports account for FCs well before then. It is commonly believed that the rate came into existence at some point in the 1920s. Fire controlmen were highly skilled technicians responsible for the operation of various forms of range finding gear, as well as the solving of ballistics calculations to control the firing of the ship's guns. These skills were employed initially for naval gunfire support and surface combat, but during World War II, their responsibilities expanded into anti-aircraft warfare as well.
In 1957, as various electronics such as tracking radars and computers became more widespread, the fire controlman rating was merged into the fire control technician (FT) rating which had been created in 1948, with specific sub-specialties for gunnery (FTG), missiles (FTM), and submarines (FTU). Later, the FTU designation was split into two specific sub-specialties for torpedoes (FTG) and ballistic missiles (FTB).
In 1985, the Navy re-established the fire controlman rating to separate those sailors in the surface FTG and FTM sub-specialties from those assigned to submarines, with the latter retaining the fire control technician rating.
The fire controlman rating insignia is a coincidence or stereoscopic rangefinder, with two lightning bolts (called "sparks") signifying the technical skills required. The lightning bolts were introduced when the rate was re-established in 1985.
FCs maintain the control systems used in aiming and firing weapons on all equipped ships. Complex computers, electronics, and electrical and hydraulic equipment are required to ensure the accuracy of guided missile, surface, and anti-aircraft fire control systems. FCs are responsible for the operation, routine care, and repair of this equipment, which includes radars, computers, weapons-direction equipment, target-designation systems, gyroscopes, and rangefinders.
Rangefinder
From Wikipedia
A rangefinder (also rangefinding telemeter, depending on the context) is a device used to measure distances to remote objects. Originally optical devices used in surveying, they soon found applications in other fields, such as photography, the military, and space travel. They were especially useful for finding the range of a target, such as in naval gunnery and anti-aircraft artillery. The word telemeter is derived from Ancient Greek 'distant, far away' and 'something used to measure'.
Designs
The first rangefinder telemeter was invented by James Watt in 1769 and put to use in 1771
Modern rangefinders use an electronic technology such as lasers or radar
Rangefinders may be used by users of firearms over long distances, to measure the distance to a target to allow for projectile drop. Until the development of electronic means of measuring range during the Second World War, warships used very large optical rangefinders—with a baseline of many meters—to measure range for naval gunnery.

Dr. Richard X. Toddhunter: But I thought, no, it's not impossible at all. Of course, after all, it's exactly along the lines of what we were trying to do with the guinea pigs, isn't it?
Jude Andrews: I believe they were mice.
Dr. Richard X. Toddhunter: Mice. Yes, mice. But a guinea pig is a guinea pig, Mr. Andrews, speaking in the generic sense. But, if this Williams received only a light dusting, and we were barely into production one, that means that the effects are much more powerful than we had thought. Much more powerful.
Jude Andrews: Would you like to see this janitor? Interview him? Examine him?
Dr. Richard X. Toddhunter: Yes, at once. Of course. Are you joking? There must be tests. There must be extensive testing. We'll start tomorrow. No, tonight, tonight. I want him admitted to the infirmary. I want to do the premim myself.
Jude Andrews: There's a slight problem.
Dr. Richard X. Toddhunter: Problem? What problem?
Jude Andrews: The janitor has split. Taken a powder. On the lam.
Dr. Richard X. Toddhunter: He's run away?
Jude Andrews: Yeah. Now we've reached an understanding.
Dr. Richard X. Toddhunter: He can't do that. He's government property.
Jude Andrews: I'm aware of that. But Mr. Williams is not.
