Very close! Actually I was Terrier system first (Mk 119/152, 55B) then went to BPDMS afterwards. I'll stop hijacking your thread, but there aren't many in our little brotherhood, so wanted to give you a cheery Aye Aye!

and for Quasimofo....i can hazard a guess as a FTM you worked on the BPDMS, then possibly the TARTAR system... i was also on a Adams Class DDG-3 USS John King and worked on the MK68 GFCS (FTG until 85 when they changed the rating to FC)
one of my fondest memories of FT school was standing midwatch in the building during a windy night and those double doors on the third deck would swing by themselves.... talk about Twilight Zone....fair winds and following seas to all the shipmates and members

Re: a Fun Question
While I don't have an answer to your question, I would like to thank you for your service, and express my regrets at your diagnosis. Noticing your avatar got me to register instead of lurking, as I am waiting for my LTC to process.
I also was Fire Control. I got out as an FTM2. I served on USS America CV-66, USS Henry B Wilson DDG-7, and USS Roark FF-1053. Whether we served together or not, we breathed the same salty air, and walked the same halls at Great Lakes.
God bless you, Shipmate. Fair winds, and following seas!
