  pre-deployment exercise and most of the equipment
  is on fire-main back-up due to divers working
  over the side. Meanwhile 1 (of 4) fire pumps is
  OOC because of bad pump bearings. They just
  received a message from the type commander that
  the deployment has been moved up and they have to
  get underway in one week for a six-month
  deployment. Repairs must be made before getting
  underway without losing fire-main or fire
  fighting capabilities.
