When general quarters is sounded, Turret 2 is manned on the double and on target ready for action.

Whether it be Hight quarters, drone ops, or general 14, . 2 s vw QE. , quarters, we're always on the spot to do our job.

Theirs is the job of enforcing security at sea as well as in port, of operating the brig, and of rendering honors to visiting dignitaries. Marine orderlies take a great load off the Captain and the Executive Officer in accomplishing multitudinous small duties at their bidding, The Marines work with the rest of their shipmates in keeping the ship clean, In addition to these shipboard duties, each marine must keep himself in readiness to operate ashore as the backbone of the ship's landing force, knowing the tactics of concealment and deployment as well as the use of all Weapons of land warfare.

Radar is important for dissemination of information concerning courses, speeds, and closest points of ap- proach of surface vessels, and also for air control, aircraft interception, shore bombardment, radar navigation, and forewarning of possible bad Weather.
