Overview

US aircraft carriers are more important, and more vulnerable, than ever. The US Navy knows a lot about damage control for large ships (even if it sometimes appears to forgotten what it once knew!). This thesis is important for anyone who wants to understand how carriers keep fighting (or don't): which should be anyone who's interested in naval affairs. Discover the untold story of the USS Forrestal fire and its transformative impact on shipboard damage control in the US Navy. This thesis explores the two investigations conducted after the fire, which resulted in recommendations to improve shipboard damage control. It found that most of these recommendations were successfully implemented, enhancing shipboard damage control capability. The thesis also discusses the factors that contributed to the successful implementation of these proposals. Additionally, it examines the unsuccessful improvement ideas and their implications for the Navy. The thesis concludes that the Navy significantly improved damage control training, equipment, and warship design as a result of the lessons learned from the USS Forrestal fire. This annotated edition illustrates the capabilities of the AI Lab for Book-Lovers to add context and ease-of-use to manuscripts. It includes five types of abstracts, building from simplest to more complex: TLDR (one word), ELI5, TLDR (vanilla), Scientific Style, and Action Items; four essays to increase viewpoint diversity: Context in the Discourse, Formal Dissent; Red Team Critique; and MAGA Perspective; and Nutshell Summaries for each page.
