Sailor Trivia Test #1
Let's give this a whirl. Since an occasional question may be CG related, I put the quiz on this site.
All you Sailors, regardless of service, seat yourselves in alphabetical order, according to size. Pencils sharpened? Ready? Begin....... 1. Was the Naval Academy at Annapolis or the Air Force Academy at Colorado Springs the first military academy to admit a woman cadet? 2. What is meant by the term, ?Boxing the compass?? 3. What is meant by the order, ?Nothing to the right (left)?? 4. What was the significance of the order, ?PLAN ONE ACKNOWLEDGE?? 5. What is a flaw?

Boy do I feel dumb! The only one I know is boxing the compass which is repeating verbatim all 32 points on the compass rose. I thought I knew nothing to the right as a command on the rifle range. Then I remembered it was "ready on the right."

Bill is correcto mundo on #2!
Let's hear it for Bill!!!!!! (YAYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!) ?Boxing the compass,? means naming the 32 points of the compass in proper sequence from north, through east, south and west back to north. The hushed audience awaits the next response from a contestant.... Hints? Well, there is a kinda trick question (but not really - just purposely misleading), and there is a Coast Guard historical question. Now I've given away the test!
