OS3 Janet Billings was on the downhill side of her four-hour watch in Combat Information Center. She was staring at her monitor and then at the big board, just to stay awake and alert. Her eyelids weighed about as much as a tire from her F-150 back home in Utah. Still, she took her watch seriously. Too many sailors had been lost a few years ago because of collisions. That was not going to happen on her watch. Scanning her monitor and then looking up at the big board, her head snapped back at her monitor. There!
