I'm working on a few short stories surrounding The Sad Girl. Danny was a Yeoman aboard the Nimitz for his first sea tour.
I wanted my character in an admin billet. I know he'd likely have a battle/GQ station - that could be almost anything, right? Any suggestions?
What about duties during mooring/departure from a port? Would he be standing by near his GQ station?
One other question, about liberty: is that charged against accrued leave, or is it more like a weekend pass? When Nimitz puts in toSan Francisco Bremerton for a period of time, I want him to have several days off, and I'm trying to figure out how he'd refer to it. He needs to have enough time and be able to travel down to San Francisco.
Also, when the carriers moor at Bremerton, are they right up against the quay, where sailors can use a gangplank? Or do they have to use a launch?
