NORAD
North American Aerospace Defense Command
difference between “shall” and “should” in military writing
shall = mandatory
should = reccommended
may/need not = discretionar
voluntary hypERventialtion
dangerous anc and lead to unconscousnessness/death during breathhold dives
- NEVER do foced valsalva namenuver during descent
decongestants when you are diving
consider if they will couse drwosiness and possibly add to nitrogen narcosis effect
primary cause of unconsciousness/death prior to a breathhold dive
hypERventilation to blow off Co2 versus 2-3 deep breaths
- br
Dynamic Positioning Cpaability (DP) when diving
use a ship’s propulation system (thursters, main propulatoin, rudders) to maintain fixed position
concept of operational necessity (diving manual)
only invoked when a mission’s success is more important than the lives/equipment of those undertakign it
- ON doesnt’ apply to traiing
import when calculatin duration of air supply when diving
factor inan adequate safety margin
- deeper the dive, the more ciritical to ensure sufficient oxygen in case of mishap. consider backup tank
- don’t ditch the apparatus unless absolutenely necessary b/c more air may become available with ascent b/c decrease in ambient pressure
problem of skip breathing when divign
increse CO2
uncosncousness adn death
what should divers avoid before diving
sternuous activity
important to remember when diving
wet suit is only marginally efective thermal protection so hyperthermia
2 things the ship needs to tell diving supervisors
situational awareness of weather and sea states
- sudden squally, electrical storm, heav sea, unusual tide, topside, conditions too risky
what must the ship do when there are divers in teh water
- no movement of the vessel w/o consultation with dive supervisor
- all movements at slow speed
- heading not toe xced 5 degrees at a time
_ movement not to exceed 32ft (10m) - center of rotation for any movement must be on dive side
use of AED when in a hyperbaric chamber
AED not approved for use under prssure/hyperbaric due to electrical safety concerns
how did divers participate in the Battle of Okinawa
to prepare for the invasion, one underwater demolitoin team removede 1,200 underwater obstacles in 2 days under heavy fire w/o casualties
aka decompression sickness
caisson’s disease
aka nitrogen narcosis
“rapture of the deep”
- intoxication, euophroia, loss of judgement, failure to recognize doom
open versus closed circuit SCUBA
open = exhaust is vented direclty into the surroudnign water
closed = oxygen filtered an drecirculated
most time consuming part of diving
decompression
- work 1hr at 200feet of salt water needs another 3hr 20min in water to decompress
dive teams at Pearl Harbor
attack at 0755. by 0915, first salvage team was cutting the hull of USS OK to rescue trapped sailors.
contributes to perception udnerwater
refraction, turbidity, salinity, pollution, color, size, shape, distance
=- divers must recognize that distance perception udner water is inaccurate

70F
