Re: NavFac Grand Turk 1960s

Anyone know how many Operational watch sections there were in the 1960s? Three or Four? Were we on a 3 eves, 3 mids & 3 Days followed by 32 hours off? Or was the Oceanographic Watch schedule different?

Re: NavFac Grand Turk 1960s

I think it was 3 watches and I do not think it was 32 off - I could be wrong - at COSL it was 72 off

Re: NavFac Grand Turk 1960s

I was stationed at NAVFAC Nantucket from spring 1964 to fall 1966 as an STG.
We stood 3 watches, 2 Mid to 0800, 2 1600 to 0000 & 2 0800 to 1600 and then
off for 72 hours.

Re: NavFac Grand Turk 1960s

I must be getting old, we 80 hrs. off not 72
