Im going to ask a question of you GG. Only you since from what I understand you have plenty of experience in this field.

When the main battery (in this case 16"/50,aged,worn etc. actually 1969) from xxxx amount of yards out puts its opening salvo within 100 yards of its target and walks right in on it is that not acceptable gunnery to you?

And if you could please explain for accuracy the testing they must go through off (california) in your case and does this happen every time they put to sea for conflict (i know most times it does but not if always). The East coast location is different if it is still in use if need be. This way those who view but dont understand will have an idea of what accuracy really is.
