Assuming many of these positions were the same as the ones on a carrier which I served on. The Boatswain Mate of the Watch was responsible for maintaining the bridge log and making general announcements on the 1MC. The Quartermaster of the Watch was responsible for plotting the position of the ship using the bearing coming from the bearing takers which where also normally those with the Quartermaster rate. The OOD and JOOD were responsible for the over safety and navigation of the ship and would float around the bridge watching contacts, verifing radar returns and generally making sure the ship was doing what it was suppose to. Someone already committed on the Lee Helmsman working the engine telegraph. You would also have an Operations Specialist (formerly Radarman) standing watch as well plotting radar contacts on a plexiglass board relative to the ships position and identifing those that were closing on the ship and what the CPA was. The Captain and Navigator were also often found on the bridge when underway and certain during GQ

My ex-father-in-law was a gunners mate on the Iowa, and was hospitalized on board after the recoil spring on a 20mm Oerlikon sllipped its catch while he was servicing the weapon, flinging him over a railing and down a level or two onto a deck while returning from (IIRC) the Casablanca conference. He had a broken vertebra, and was hospitalized all the way back to the USA and some months after, and got transferred to a new-construction destroyer (DD730 USS Collett) where he finished out a *very* active war. I'd love to learn more about the medical division and what they did on the Iowas.

The OOD has the conn, gives heading orders to the helmsman and speed orders to the lee. Lookouts and bearing takers report any nav contacts, hazards, etc mainly to the OOD who has the overall navigational control of the ship. Other use that info too of course. The nav tells what the next waypoint is and the OOD makes it happen. OOD will order evasive actions, keep station in formations etc. The captain can take the conn by announcing it on the bridge or make any orders he wants, the OOD reports directly to the captain. Everything about control of the ship (non combat) otherwise is his. Engineering issues, damage, any information that affects ship handling goes to the OOD. Cool part about watch change is when the oncoming and offgoing OOD are satisfied they have a good handoff the oncoming announces "attention on the bridge, I am 'Lt. Salty' and I have the conn." You all work for me now...😮

I served on a couple of missile destroyers back between 1969 and 1973 as a Radarman/OS. We routinely had a "bridge talker" stationed on the bridge on sound powered phones during certain operations in case the squawk box circuit failed for whatever reason. Most of the time when I manned this post I observed that the only people on the bridge were the ones designated to be there, and small talk was not permitted. It could be a very hectic place during maneuvering ops, or quite as a church like when independent steaming on the mid watch.

This would all depend on the the u/w status of the ship. In condition 3 watch standing (normal Steaming) vs GQ or other conditions. ie.. GQ or restricted maneuvering. (unrep or navigation detail. ) In the 80's when I was on her the the normal condition 3 was as follows. From Starboard to Port- OOD, OOD U/I, JOOW (conning officer), JOOD- all across the front of the Bridge. JOOW used the 2 radars (Surface Search and Nav to maintain the surface plot. JOOD was the Communicator and keeping the contact bubble with the OS, and the OOD, and OOD U\I taking to CEC/CIC and keeping the over all bubble. On the Port side off the bridge we had a OS running the Contact board and getting the info from CIC (surface plot) and sometimes a sound powered phone talker plugged into the lookouts and other nav circuits. In the citadel, was the Helm and lee Helm doing their thing (Helm and Engine Order telegraph), and during special steaming conditions had a Master Helmsman, and a Steering Safety Officer as well. On the Port wing was the Bots'n of the watch with a a couple of others keeping the day to day operations running. Bells, 1MC, lookouts etc under control. On the STBD wing was the Nav section, QM of the watch and his minions, keeping the bridge plot, and deck log, and taking bearing if needed. That was the bridge in normal condition 3 watch standing. 90% of the time. GQ or Unreps added a whole bunch more people.

BMOW supervises helmsman, lee helmsman, JL talker and lookouts, all of whom are deck ratings under normal conditions. At GQ & S&A detail sometimes the Lee-Helm is an engineering petty officer. The J-series talkers are never communications people. These SP phone circuits are purpose driven, and the ratings on those circuits are from the division or department responsible for the function of the circuit. Examples: JL - lookouts - boatswains mates (BM). 2JV - engineering control - a machinist mate (MM) or boiler tech (BT).

I love love love these videos you do. Don't get me wrong, they're super interesting and informative even to people who have spent a lifetime in the Navy but have no association with battleships. So no offense, but ... maybe if you find some old sailor hanging around when you're preparing to do these videos you might ask him to look over the script first? That could easily answer a lot of questions -- unless of course the idea is to elicit lots of comments. In that case, Bravo Zulu. The Boatswain's Mate of the Watch BMOW is the supervisor of almost all the enlisted people on watch on the bridge (helmsman, lee helmsman, lookouts, messenger.) I'm guessing that would include all those phone talkers you mentioned. The "lee helm" no longer has to do with where the wind is coming from, but is the guy operating the engine telegraph and talking to the engine room. The engine telegraph is pretty close to the helm. (The origin of the name goes a ways back in history.) I'm guessing most of the phone talkers you named were not "communications ratings" necessarily. Most likely almost all of them were unrated seamen from the Deck Department (as were the helmsmen and lookouts). To the best of my memory of my short time in the Deck Department - not during GQ - we would stand a four-hour watch on the bridge, one hour each on the helm, the lee helm, and both bridge wings as lookout - the idea being a change of scenery to keep it interesting, give the eyes a break, etc. The BMOW was a Third Class Boatswain's Mate and my immediate supervisor while on watch. He told us when and where to rotate each hour. He also kept the time, made announcements on the public address system (the 1MC), read the weather forecast each morning, etc. The only other people on watch on the bridge (aside from the BMOW and four seamen) were the OOD, the JOOD, and someone from Operations on a sound-powered phone serving as liaison between Operations (where the radar was) and the OOD. He stood behind a plexiglas screen recording positions (updates) of other ships (and aircraft?) writing backwards with a grease pencil for the OOD to be able to refer to it at a glance. On small- to medium size ships, the JOOD was a senior enlisted man, though I suspect on battleships and carriers it would have always been a junior officer. While on watch the lookout (me) would use the Polaris (I didn't know it had a name) to take bearings of sightings to pass the OOD (via the BMOW), but most of the time the eyes were glued to the binoculars. The OOD or JOOD might also come out onto the bridge wing to take a reading. It's likely there would be extra lookouts during GQ, and possibly some other rating (Quartermaster?) would be tasked with taking readings. My GQ station was elsewhere so I never got to see how many others were assigned to the Bridge at that time. Anyhow, thanks for the memories and keep up the good work. (Edit: I wasn't considering a different room located aft of the Bridge a part of the Bridge. I rarely saw the guy in the other room (a Quartermaster or Navigator), and he wasn't part of the crew the BMOW supervised.)

The Bearing Takers report "True Bearnings" not Relative. True is basically what the Gyro repeater is reading. They would be a Gyro Error (Typically about 0.3 degrees E or W). calculated every watch (if possible). The bearings are plotted to the fixed object on the navigation chart. 3 or more bearings usually provide a decent fix - but not always. Gyro error is usually checked with the sun using an Azimuth ring that fits over the repeater (on the wings). RTD former Navigation Officer.

AFAIK, there were no shipboard radio navigation systems in use at the time. At night they could compare the positions of the stars to calculate lat/Lon.

We've had one response saying the Captain is probably in CIC/CEC, with the XO on the bridge. Would that have been true in WWII, or is that more towards the end of New Jersey's career when CIC/CEC become even more important? Even though New Jersey wasn't set up as a fleet flagship, I think she still has a separate admiral's bridge (one level up? Ryan?) - which should eliminate wandering admirals interfering with the duties of the bridge crew? Would New Jersey ever have carried more than one admiral underway? I can think of at least two ways, maybe even three ways,this might happen - one is if a senior admiral (Halsey with four, then five stars) had an aide who was himself a junior admiral - a one-star intelligence chief? The second is if she was ever flagship of two groups of ships at once (fleet or task force and battleship division or escort group?). The less likely third possibility is a one-star CO (this happens on the supercarriers with some regularity, but I'm not sure if it has ever happened on a battleship) - he's technically an admiral (or at least a commodore), but addressed as "the Captain". I know the Iowas had more than one admiral aboard for visits fairly regularly (Nimitz and Halsey conferred aboard on at least one occasion, so there have even been two fleet admirals at once). Missouri must have had a whole gaggle of them, including British, Japanese and perhaps Soviet admirals aboard for the surrender - but has New Jersey, or any Iowa, ever carried two admirals for an operational cruise?
