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.
