NAVY Productions | Reasons Why US Navy Sailors Never Get On The Bridge Of An Aircraft Carrier @navyproductions | Uploaded August 2022 | Updated October 2024, 20 hours ago.
The bridge is one of the most important places on an aircraft carrier; but, some sailors may spend their entire tour of duty on an aircraft carrier without ever setting foot in this particular area. It is strictly forbidden to enter this area. Why do most Navy Crew members Never get on the bridge?
The Bridge is a carrier's primary command and control center; from here, the captain and other officers can manage all of the ship's activities. The bridge is where the Captain sits along with the navigator and all of the officers on the deck and the rest of the watch team charged with steering the ship and staying away from hazards. In most cases, it is situated in a location that provides an unobstructed view as well as direct access to the most important parts of a ship. The bridge is a few levels below Pri-fly in the carrier's superstructure.
It is strictly prohibited for anybody other than authorized staff to enter the Bridge, and all operating protocols must be followed precisely at all times. This is one of the reasons why some sailors in the US Navy might never enter the Bridge on a carrier.
Because the Bridge of an aircraft carrier is the ship's heart, there are strict procedures regarding who is allowed entry into the compartment. The Bridge also houses the primary steering equipment, navigation charts, communication systems, engine control, and other functions. There are also neighboring bridge wings on certain bridges, which are used to store the machinery for the stern and bow thrusters. These wings extend beyond the main bridge room and provide a view of the surrounding areas that are clear and unimpeded in every direction.
