First, they design the guns. They decide they want X-inch guns, which require Y-sized turrets, which require X-sized hull to put to sea, which requires A-horsepower of thrust, B number of anti-aircraft and secondary guns. Then you add extras like the amount of fire control, damage control, aircraft catapults, radar arrays, communications etc etc, all of the little things needed to keep the ship sailing, and the guns firing. They take the number of men to maintain and operate those, then add the facilities needed to support those men, which comes down to sleeping, eating, bathing, and morale. You add the number of men required to run those facilities to support the crew, and adjust for themselves. Finally, throw in a captain and officer corps sufficient to maintain command, order, and discipline of those men, and you have your crew.

I was fortunate to receive a " Firepower Tour " last November on Battleship Massachusetts with Dr. John Scholes and we spent four hours on board and still could not fully complete the tour. I plan to continue the tour later this year. Naval fire control is a complex series of procedures that must be executed in a precise manner in order to deliver the shells on target and the equipment that you all were demonstrating were and still are masterpieces of engineering.

This was a great video Ryan. I like this concept. I guess this also highlighted one aspect. Does the plans or any plans show what circuit is where? I would imagine there is somewhere. As you said the headphones had x number of circuits in that room. ( I would also imagine those circuits as in every communication circuit appears in one place somewhere simply for patching purposes maybe signalling or communications room somewhere) Where or are those duplicated elsewhere within the Ship? I would imagine yes in the Secondary fire control room. With the age of the ship and how everyone is aging. With each passing year there is going to be less and less crew who served on the ship still alive. I wonder if as the curator of the New Jersey it would be worth reaching out to those still alive and asking them could you tell us or come and show us what these are or what they are called especially when comes to likes of communication points. Or even asking them is there anything missing in this room that you can remember being here. Take advantage of the knowledge base already out there while can before it is gone. Because sadly once it is gone, that information is also gone forever. I realise that would be a lot of work. But I am also thinking about how much information would be gained compared to the work involved and from what I can think what you would gain, would far outweigh the effort involved.... But, maybe I am wrong.

Just one sight setter, no other positions except on occasion a check sight officer at a sight pointer position. The reason for sights on both sides of the turret is because of where your LOS is in relation to the LOF. The TO had the job to designate which sights were to be used. 0:02 😊 Gun rooms as you said. Electric deck as you said. We generally did not have an electrician assigned, although we often needed one. (It was an ongoing battle with engineering dept.) Shell decks: We only manned one deck at a time. from a practical standpoint I don’t see how you could ever man them both at the same time. The upper deck hoists have a door that is lowered into the floor so the shells can be smoothly parbuckled into the hoist. If you were to move shells into a hoist at both levels at the same time I don’t believe you could then move that door out of the way so the shell from the lower deck could move up the hoist. Powder deck as you said.
