DRILLS BM3 ROSS sounds general quarter GENERAL QUARTERS As a naval vessel, MANATEE has to be ready for any emergency. The possibility of attack or fire requires a quick reacting team capable of manning the ship ' s battery, repairing damage, and aiding the wounded. To train for this possibility, the ship constantly conducts drills. At first indication of trouble, the crew is ordered to general quarters. These are the battle stations, and when the manned and ready report is received on the bridge the ship is fully prepared to take care of any situation. No one walks to their station, since seconds can count in an emergency. The gun crews stand ready to open fire on order from the bridge. Repair teams, trained to combat fires, explosions or the products of nuclear and chemical warfare, are spread throughout the ship, with open communica- tions to damage control central, where repair is coordinated. Main engine control has the best trained men standing by the throttles, boilers, and generators to provide the ship the power and mobility to meet the emergency. At each of the drills a simulated situation is created (fire, man overboard, or attack) and the crew tests its ability to react effectively. After each drill, the crew evaluates the action taken, and corrects any discovered problems. 42
