Fun fact, Navy ships didn’t even have a dedicated firefighting force until after the disaster on the USS Forrestal in 1962. A fire broke out on the flight deck and the attempts to put it out were like watching Keystone Cops. Nobody had a dedicated job or understood how to actually fight a Class D fire.

Hell of a disaster
The video from the flight deck was used during my damage control training when I was in the Navy. The DC rate was created after that disaster.
