(This  page   is  UNCLASSIFIED)
1.        (U)  INTELLIGENCE  * 
1.  (U)  Joint  Operation  Center  (JOC)  and  Joint  Intelligence 
Center  (JiC)  were  planned,  organized  and  staffed  during  Grenada 
rescue  (Operation  URGENT  FURY)  from  20  October  to  2  November 
1983. 
2.  (U)  Scenarios  were  prepared  and  staffs  were  coordinated 
for  five  joint  and  Fleet  Field  Training  Exercises  (FTX)  and  Com- 
mand Post  Exercise- (CPX)  training. 
G.   (U)  WAR  PLANS
2.  |Bm  addition  to  the  general  war  plans,  CINCLANTFLT? 
prepares  Supporting  and  Contingency  Operations  Plans  in  support 
of  USCINCLANT  and  other  military  commands  which  require  U.S. 
Atlantic  Fleet  forces.   (See  Part  XI.) 
H.   (U)  NATO  RELATIONSHIPS.   Selected  staff  officers  with  pri- 
mary responsibilities  to  USCINCLANT/CINCLANTFLT  are  assigned 
additional  duty  to  corresponding  staff  positions  with 
CINCWESTLANT/COMOCEANLANT.   Direct  and  frequent  interaction  with 
members  of  the  SACLANT  Staff  provides  a  continuous  conduit  for 
coordination  and  information  exchange  between  NATO  and  national 
commanders.  Further  enhanced  by  the  close  physical  proximity  of 
the  staffs,  this  interaction  promotes  a  healthy  degree  of  dis- 
cussion on  problems  of  mutual  interest.  Combined  command  post 
exercises  are  routinely  conducted  using  control  centers  located 
in  the  same  building  complex.  This  close  coordination,  combined 
with  aggressive  exercise  scenarios  enhances  CINCLANTFLT  rela- 
tionships with  NATO  counterparts  and  promotes  an  integrated  area 
defense,  compatible  tactics  and  standardized  rules  of  engagement. 
I.   (U)  PROPULSION  EXAMINING  BOARD  (PEB) 
1.  (U)  Propulsion  Examining  Board.  During  FY  84,  the  Pro- 
pulsion Examining  Board  conducted  32  Light  Off  Examinations 
(LOE)  and  56  Operational  Propulsion  Plant  Examinations  (OPPE) . 
The  Propulsion  Examining  Board  instituted  new  inspection  proce- 
dures placing  greater  emphasis  on  evaluating  the  engineering 
watchstanders'  ability  to  safely  operate  the  propulsion  plant. 
The  Tenth  Standardization  Conference  was  conducted  with  PEB, 
LANTFLT  Mobile  Training  Teams,  Fleet  Training  Group  GTMO  (FTG)  , 
and  representatives  of  LANTFLT  Training  Command. 
2.  H  Naval  Nuclear  Propulsion  Examining  Board.   The  Naval 
Nuclear  Propulsion  Examining  Board  conducted  operational  reactor 
safeguards  examinations  of  97  submarines  and  two  nuclear-powered 
surface  ships,  13  radiological  controls  practices  evaluations  of

examinations  of  seven  nuclear-powered  submarines  and  two 
nuclear-powered  surface  ships  completing  non-refueling  overhauls 
during  fiscal  year  1984.   The  Board  evaluated  the  performance  of 
eight  submarines  and  one  nuclear  support  facility  as  excellent. 
Grades  of  above  average  were  assigned  to  20  submarines,  one 
nuclear-powered  surface  ship  and  five  nuclear  support  facili- 
ties. Grades  of  average  were  assigned  to  59  submarines,  two 
nuclear-powered  surface  ships  and  five  nuclear  support  facili- 
ties. Nineteen  submarines,  one  nuclear-powered  surface  ship  and 
two  nuclear  support  facilities  were  evaluated  as  below  average. 
One  submarine  was  evaluated  as  unsatisfactory.  This  ship  was 
reexamined  by  the  Nuclear  Propulsion  Examining  Board  following 
the  required  corrective  active  and  before  resuming  unrestricted 
reactor  operations.

^.   *#)  -Shortage  of  Permanent  Change  of  Station  funds 
has  impacted  on  Fleet  readiness  through  the  requirement  to  con- 
sider cost  as  a  major  factor  in  the  assignment  of  personnel. 
3..   (U)  Ma*  m-onanc€  Personnel 
a.   (U)  Due  to  the  increased  complexity  and  volume  of 
shipwork  awarded  to  the  private  sector,  SUPSHIP  manning  was 
insufficient  to  properly  administer  shipwork  and  provide  neces- 
sary additional  quality  assurance  and  contract  administration 
functions. 
.  b.   (U)  Shortages  of  shipboard  technical  expertise 
caused  high  demand  for  Mobile  Technical  Unit  (MOTU)  assistance. 
LANTFLT  MOTUs  are  currently  manned  at  83%  of  basic  allowance 
(BA) .  Contractor  support  (CETS)  funds  which  are  used  to  supple- 
ment MOTUs  when  required  have  not  been  increased  for  four  vears 
and  were  reduced  by  four  man  years  in  FY  84.   The  above  factors 
contributed  to  a  continued  deterioration  of  fleet  readiness. 
c.   (n)  Intermediate  Maintenance  Activities  (IMAs}  had 
insufficient  mamrinq  of  appropriate  NECs.   Since  the  capability 
of  an  IMA  is  directly  dependent -on  the  skill  and  training  of  its 
personnel,  personnel  assigned,  without  consideration  of  NEC 
caused  the  IMA  to  employ  untrained-  personnel  on  complex  systems 
and/or  Lose"  individuals  for  extensiveper-rods.  for  formal  train- 
ing^ 
I-t4 
(This  page  is  UNCLASSIFIED)
4.  (U)  Fiscal  Constraints.   Budget  restrictions  precluded 
accomplishment  of  approximately  700  man  years  of  intermediate 
maintenance  through  the  CIS  program  in  FY  84. 
5.  (u)  Shore  Activities  Readiness 
a.  (U)  Base  Operations  Support  (BOS)  Funding.   Inade- 
quate funding  levels  of  previous  years  continued  in  FY  84. 
b.  (U)  Civilian  Personnel.  An  overall  manpower  short- 
fall continued  to  degrade  virtually  all  base  support  functions. 
The  impact  is  particularly  severe  in  areas  of  Supply  Support, 
Utility  Operations  and  Maintenance,  Base  Communications,  Fire- 
fighting,  station  and  Weapons  Security,  and  Maintenance  of  Real 
Property. 
c.  (U)  Civil  Engineering  Support  Equipment  (CESE) . 
One-half  of  the  sedans,  trucks,  construction  equipment,  fire- 
fighting  equipment,  cranes  and  railroad  equipment  is  overage. 
Older  fuel-inefficient  vehicles  are  costly  to  operate  and  main- 
tain. The  higher  frequency  and  scope  of  repairs  required  to 
maintain  these  older  vehicles  in  operational  condition  cause  a 
disproportionate  drain  on  manpower  and  funds  for  more  costly 
parts.  The  rising  percentage  of  downtime  associated  with  over- 
age CESE  diminishes  their  dependability  for  mission  support. 
d.  (U)  Safety  and  Occupational  Health  Program.  Naval 
Inspector  General  inspections  of  CINCLANTFLT  Shore  Activities 
Safety  Programs  have  focused  high  level  attention  on  insuffi- 
cient staffing  and  funding  for  performance  of  activities'  Mis- 
sion Safety  and  Health  Program  responsibilities,  as  well  as  an 
extremely  high  incidence  of  work  place  deficiencies.  The  cost 
of  work  place  injuries  and  illness  continues  to  rise  according 
to  Department  of  Labor  Federal  Employees  Compensation  records. 
Activities  are  directly  accountable  for  this  cost. 
e.  (U)  Real  Property  Maintenance  Activity  (RPMA)  Fund- 
ing.  In  real  terms,  the  funds  provided  for  RPMA  are  declining 
while  the  fixed  cost  of  base  ownership  (utilities,  refuse 
removal,  grounds  maintenance,  recurring  work,  etc.)  is  increas- 
ing.  The  impact  of  this  phenomenon  is  an  increase  in  uncor- 
recteu  deficiencies  which  reduces  overall  readiness. 
f.  (u)  Environmental  Initiatives.   Protection  and 
enhancement  of  the  environment  in  compliance  with  the  National 
Environmental  Act  and  other  federal  laws  have  significantly 
impacted  on  other  programs.   CINCLANTFLT  committed  over  $2  mil- 
lion of  unbudgeted  funds  to  support  the  Northeast  BB  SAG  and 
Vieques  Environmental  Initiatives.

K.  (U)  FACTORS  EXPECTED  TO  CONTINUE  TO  AFFECT  READINESS.  The 
major  factors  expected  to  continue  to  affect  LANTFLT  readiness 
are: 
1-20
2.   (U)  Personnel 
a.  (U)  The  shortages  of  skilled  technical  personnel 
described  in  part  I. J. lb  are  expected  to  continue  in  the  fore- 
seeable future.   Some  improvement  is  anticipated  as  a  result  of 
recent  legislation  affecting  pay  and  benefits,  but  the  capabil- 
ity to  fully  man  LANTFLT,  in  both  quantity  and  quality  of  per- 
sonnel, will  not  be  achieved  for  several  more  years. 
b.  (U)  Within  current  Navy  budget  constraints,  improve- 
ment in  availability  of  PCS  funds  is  not  anticipated. 
c.  (U)  Factors  which  will  continue  to  impair  mainte- 
nance personnel  readiness  are: 
overhauls. 
(1)  (U)  inadequate  SUPSHIP  manning  to  administer 
(2)  (U)  Mobile  Technical  Unit  (MOTU)  manning  levels 
which  are  now  83  percent  of  basic  allowance  (BA)  and  deteriora- 
tion is  expected  in  the  near  term. 
(3)  (U)  inadequate  manning  of  appropriate  NECs  at 
the  intermediate  Maintenance  Activities  (IMAs) . 
3.   (U)  Fiscal  Constraints 
a.  (U)  Known  budget  restrictions  will  create  an  addi- 
tional intermediate  maintenance  backlog  of  approximately  825  CIS 
man  years  in  FY  85  and  500  CIS  man  years  in  FY  86.  Addition- 
ally, failure  to  restore  last  year's  cuts  in  SIMA  manpower 
growth  in  FY  85  through  FY  88  will  cause  the  backlog  of  interme- 
diate maintenance  to  grow  as  the  size  of  the  fleet  grows. 
b.  (U)  To  balance  fleet  funding,  nearly  every  program 
including  Depot  Level  Ship  Maintenance  will  operate  at  a  lower 
level  with  the  probability  of  a  reduced  level  of  readiness. 
(U)  Logistics 
1-21
e.   |0  Personnel  shortages  will  continue  to  exist  in 
certain  medical  specialties,  especially  General  Surgery,  Ortho- 
pedic Surgery  and  Anesthesia. 
5.   (U)  Shore  Activities  Readiness 
a.  (U)  Deficits  in  Base  Operating  Support  (BOS)  fund- 
ing, Real  Property  Maintenance  Activities  (RPMA)  funding,  and 
civilian  personnel  end  strength  will  continue  to  adversely 
affect  shore  activity  readiness. 
b.  (U)  Military  Construction  (MILCON)  project  backlog, 
which  is  in  excess  of  $2  billion,  continues  to  grow. 
CINCLANTFLT  is  unable  to  make  headway  in  reducing  this  backlog 
1-22
because  new  mission  requirements,  such  as  the  over  $200  million 
military  construction  requirement  for  homeporting  the  BB-SAG  in 
New  York,  is  taken  out  of  the  existing  MILCON  program.   Such 
action  defers  construction  of  needed  facilities  and  repair  main- 
tenance to  existing  facilities  and  further  adds  to  the  backlog. 
Additionally,  CNO  has  initiated  a  Gulf  Coast  BB-SAG  homeport 
study  which  could  result  in  the  establishment  of  a  new  fleet 
homeport,  has  directed  the  homeporting  of  two  reserve  frigates 
in  Boston,  and  is  looking  for  a  home  for  a  displaced  CV  from 
Norfolk,  all  of  which  will  cause  expenditures  of  already  scarce 
MILCON  funds. 
c.  (U)  OPN  funding  levels  for  Civil  Engineering  Support 
Equipment  (CESE)  replacement  has  declined  over  the  past  few 
years.  However,  figures  in  the  FYDP  would  allow  CINCLANTFLT  to 
reduce  the  CESE  overage  percentage  from  52%  (FY  84)  to  20%  by  FY 
1991.   It  must  be  stressed  that  this  reduction  is  contingent 
upon  the  integrity  of  OPN  funds  in  the  FYDP. 
d.  (U)  Safety  and  Occupational  Health  Program  Deficits 
in  safety  and  occupational  health  funding  and  civilian  personnel 
end  strength  will  continue  to  adversely  affect  shore  activity 
readiness. 
e.  (U)  Environmental  Program  -  CINCLANTFLT  will  be 
required  to  expend  significant  unbudgeted  funding  to  continue  to 
support  the  Vieques  and  BB  strategic  homeporting  environmental 
protection  and  enhancement  programs  which  will  adversely  impact 
other  programs.

L.   (U)  ACTIONS  RECOMMENDED  FOR  IMPROVEMENT  OF  READINESS.   The 
following  actions  are  recommended  for  the  improvement  of  readi- 
ness in  the  areas  specified: 
1.  (U)  Personnel 
a.  (U)  Continued  emphasis  on  improving  the  quality  of 
Navy  life  is  essential  to  keep  our  skilled  personnel  from  opting 
for  civilian  careers. 
b.  (U)  Substantially  increase  PCS  funding. 
2.  (U)  Maintenance  Personnel 
a.  (U)  Continue  increased  priority  on  Mobile  Technical 
Unit  (MOTU)  manning  and/or  substantially  increase  Civilian  Elec- 
tronic Technician  Support  (CETS)  funding. 
b.  (U)  Selected  NEC  detailing  and  appropriate  training 
en  route  to  permanent  change  of  station  (PCS)  is  required  tc 
allow  maximum  utilization  of  limited  personnel  available  at  the 
Intermediate  Maintenance  Activities  (IMAs) . 
c.  (U)  Increased  civilian  manning  in  SUPSHIP  offices 
for  administrative  and  quality  control  of  expanding  private  sec- 
tor wor  k . 
3.  (U)  Fiscal  Constraints.  Restore  the  CNO-directed  man- 
power cuts  and  full  funding  of  intermediate  maintenance  workload. 
4.  (u)  Maintenance.  Extended  duration  and  poor  quality  of 
some  regular  overhauls  continue  to  rob  us  of  already  short 
assets  and  decreases  our  capability  in  all  warfare  areas. 
Although  progress  has  been  made,  sustained  improvement  will 
require: 
a.  (U)  Implementation  of  and  adherence  to  class  mainte- 
nance plans  emphasizing  shorter  overhaul  durations  and  compre- 
hensive mid-cycle  restricted  availabilities,  for  all  ship 
classes. 
b.  (U)  Accomplishment  of  large  SHIPALTs  on  an  incremen- 
tal basis,  where  possible. 
1-26
c.   (U)  Improvements  in  stocks  of  critical  repair     • 
parts.   The  lack  of  adequate  on  board  stocks  and  long  procure- 
ment lead  times  for  critical  repair  parts,  increasing  equipment 
complexity,  and  Mobile  Logistics  Support  Force  (MLSF)  reductions 
dangerously  undercut  fleet  mobility  and  sustainability . 
5.   (U)  Logistics 
b.  (U)  Ensure  the  timely  procurement  and  prepositioning 
of  deployable  medical  systems  that  will  adequately  support 
approved  contingency  plans. 
c.  (U)  Ensure  that  host-nation  support  agreements  are 
addressed  in  a  timely  manner  in  order  to  receive  deployable  med- 
ical systems  as  they  become  available. 
d.  (U)  Ensure  the  establishment  of  training  programs 
that  will  provide  the  commander  qua^ifi^  medical  department 
personnel  to  support  approved  contingency  plans. 
e.  J/H  Continued  procurement/distribution  of  new  Chemi- 
cal Biological  Radiological  (CBR)  protective  clothing  to  meet 
ships  manning  document  requirements. 
6.   (U)  Shore  Activities  Readiness 
a.  (U)  Motivate  the  completion  of  Commercial  Activities 
Program  cost  studies,  and  apply  the  manpower  and  funding  savings 
derived  therefrom  to  resource  deficiencies  which  exist  in  criti- 
cal areas  of  the  shore  establishment  and  operating  forces. 
b.  (U/  increase  base  operations  support  funding  to  pro- 
vide adequate  support  to  fleet  operating  units  and  personnel, 
with  attendant  increase  in  facilities  maintenance. 
c.  (U)  Increase  base  operations  support  funding  to  pro- 
vide resources  for  the  Fleet  Expansion  and  Strategic  Homeporting 
programs. 
d.  (U)  Since  the  existing  MILCON  funding  is  not  suffi- 
cient to  make  headway  in  correcting  existing  facility  deficien- 
cies, much  less  construct  totally  new  shore  activities, 
additional  MILCON  funding  is  required  to  prevent  continued 
degradation  of  shore  activity  readiness. 
1-27
e.  (U)  Maintain  OPN  funding  levels  contained  in  the  • 
FYDP  for  Civil  Engineering  Support  Equipment  (CESE)  procurement. 
f.  (U)  Safety  and  Occupational  Health  Program.   Provide 
civilian  end  strength  and  funding  requested  in  current  POM 
issues  for  safety  and  occupational  health  functions  at 
CINCLANTFLT  Shore  Activities. 
g.  (U)  Environmental,  Program.   Provide  required  funding 
to  support  SECNAV  and  CNO-directed  initiatives. 
7.   (u)  Training.   Lack  of  assets  dictate  doing  more  with 
less  in  the  near  term  to  improve  readiness.  This  will  be  accom- 
plished (as  feasible)  by: 
c.  (U)  Improving  coordination  in  exercise  planning  with 
North  Atlantic  Treaty  Organization  (NATO)  and  foreign  national 
commands  to  achieve  more  effective  use  of  exercise  forces. 
d.  (U)  Continuation  of  prospective  Commanding  Officer 
(PCO)  underway  operations  and  missile  and  ASW  school  ship  con- 
cept to  provide  maximum  training  opportunities  for  key  person- 
nel. Coordinated  scheduling  of  submarine  PCO  and  surface  PCO 
operations  will  provide  some  economies  while  improving  training 
readiness  status. 
g.   (U)  Continued  use  of  the  Dockside  Underway  Simulator 
(DUS)  at  Fleet  Training  Group  (FTG) ,  Guantanamo  Bay,  to  train 
for  at-sea  underway  replenishment  exercises. 
h.   (U)  Increasing  force  levels. 
i.   (U)  increasing  OPTEMPO  funding  and  flying  hours.

branch  to  provide  improved  intelligence  support  to  USCINCLANT 
and  subordinate  commanders.  The  SST  is  charged  with  maintaining 
cognizance  over  several  sensitive  sources  of  information  dealing 
with  Soviet  doctrinal,  strategy,  technical  and  tactical  develop- 
ments.  Via  access  to  this  information,  and  wide  liaison  with 
both  intelligence  and  operational  communities,  the  SST  is  able 
to  produce  net  assessments  on  Soviet  capabilities  relative  to 
those  of  US /NATO  forces.

a.   (0)  The  USLANTCOM  IDHS  Modernization  Program  (LMP)  was 
undertaken  in  response  to  the  major  upgrades  of  intelligence 
processing  and  reporting  systems  of  the  DOD  Intelligence  Infor- 
mation System  (DODIIS)  and  the  large  increase  in  the  volume  of 
intelligence  data  resulting  from  new  sensor  systems.  Major 
goals  of  the  LMP  are  to  provide  more  timely  and  convenient 
access  to  intelligence  data,  implement  new  computer-assisted 
applications,  enhance  computer- to-computer  interoperability,  and 
provide  supporting  telecommunications.   Calendar  Year  1984 
marked  the  completion  of  Phase  4  of  this  program  and  the  initia- 
tion of  Phase  5.   The  following  accomplishments  were  realized  in 
support  of  the  LMP  goals: 
(2)  (U)  The  capabilities  of  the  USLANTCOM  Automated  Mes- 
sage Handling  System  (AMHS)  were  upgraded  with  the  incorporation 
of  a  new  software  release  and  the  addition  of  terminals.   Ana- 
lyst CRT  workfiles  have  been  developed  for  many  branches  with.in 
the  Intelligence  Division.   The  profiling  of  message  traffic  has 
enabled  the  automatic  routing  of  softcopy  messages  to  the  cogni- 
zant branch.   New  security  software  has  enabled  the  security 
officer  to  provide  passwords  and  user  IDs  to  users  of  the  system 
and  to  restrict  their  access  to  only  certain  subareas  of  the 
system.  Users  of  this  system  have  been  expanded  to  include  the 
Fleet  Intelligence  Center  Europe  and  Atlantic  (FICEURLANT)  and 
the  Atlantic  Command  Electronic  Intelligence  Center  (LEC).   The 
system  capabilities  also  include  expanded  on-line  access  to 
large  intelligence  data  bases  in  the  Washington  area.

(U)  The  goal  of  improving  computer- to- computer    • 
lity  and  enhancing  communications  was  achieved  in 
the  installation  of  a  high-speed,  state-of-the-art 
link  between  USCINCLANT  IDHS,  FICEURLANT,  and  LEC 
ters.   The  installation  was  achieved  during  the  sum-

b.   (U)  LMP  Phase  5  commenced  in  late  1984  and  emphasized 
increased  capabilities  through  software  enhancements  as  well  as 
the  acquisition  of  new  hardware.   Early  in  calendar  year  1985  a 
sophisticated  color  graphics  capability  will  become  operational 
in  support  of  submarine  threat  analysis.   A  VAX  11/750  computer 
procured  in  1984  serves  as  the  host  for  the  Graphics  Support 
System  (GSS) .   A  GSS  AED  512  color  graphics  terminal  has  been 
installed  in  FOSIC  DET  CLF.   In  June  1984,  a  large  IBM  computer 
was  installed  in  the  IDHS  computer  center  to  serve  as  the  host 
for  a  multi-year  effort  to  develop  an  integrated  Intelligence 
Database  (IDB) .
