Congratulations!
| The Turret Captain's duties were to maintain,
instruct, and take charge of the gun turret assigned. They were assigned to Aircraft
Carriers, Battleships and Cruisers. Each turret was assigned a Chief Turret Captain or
First Class Turret Captain or both. The Turret Captain rate was terminated when
Battleships and Cruisers that had turrets were decommissioned and all the gunship Aircraft
Carriers had their turrets removed. |
