[QUOTE]Originally posted by MarianLH: [QB] And yet neither web site goes into the kind of nuts and bolts detail Intruder1701 has. :) Some of the stuff was interesting, like the guide to enlisted ratings and rates. But I'm not really all that interested in the USN (at least, not in the context of this thread). What I'm interested in is figuring out day-to-day details of life on a [i]starship,[/i] and extrapolating from how a real navy does things may yield a more realistic and functional result that just guessing. I didn't ask about repair lockers because I want to know how the USN fights fires. I asked so I could make an educated guess of what's in a starship's repair lockers. Likewise, when I ask Intruder1701 (as I'm about to) how many people besides the DCO man the DCC, it's so I can figure out how many people man the DCC on the [i]Enterprise[/i], and therefore how much space it would need and what it would look like. For instance, earlier I speculated on how a torpedo room might be staffed. That was, for the most part, totally off the top of my head. Since then it's occured to me that knowing how a WWII battleship manned up one of its main gun turrets might shed some light on the question. If anyone has any links that do go into that kind of minutae, by all means let me know. =) Marian [/QB][/QUOTE]
