your geographic area, fuel efficiency, ice piloting and
guidelines used, special evolutions (escorting ships, use of
heeling systems, etc.), and any deck or superstructure icing.

Items of Interest
Describe any unusual navigation practices, procedures, or

submitted to Defense Mapping Agency, attaching a copy of
the DMA report as an appendix to the cruise report is an
acceptable alternative to narrative in this section.
