Funny thing about that restrictive paragraph in the Navy letter, by omission it allows you to reactivate the guns.
Yes we have a very long list of things we arent aloud to touch. And if needed too would have to have a Naval representative present and follow said guidelines already laid down.

We are inspected twice a year as far as New Jersey goes. I would imagine Whiskey may be watched even more closely.The others I am unsure of.
