I served in the Navy from 74 to 80, school for the first 18 months and at sea for the last 4.5 years. I worked on a nuclear powered cruiser in the engine room. It was not unusual to stand "port and starboard" watches which meant only 2 people were qualified to stand that particular watch and we alternated duty.
