There are several resources that you can use, but don't expect a response
here in the newsgroup to answer all your questions or to provide you with a
complete, ready-made script. The earlier mention of the Museum as a source
is excellent. I commanded several ships and the Boatswains Mate of the
Watch handled the 1MC except when I had word to pass. I suggest that the
Boatswain's Mate 3 Course book or the Bluejackets Manual might be an
appropriate second source, and as I recall, there is a mock bridge and
Pri-fly setup at the Air and Space Museum in which there is a looped tape
with "sounds at sea." The last thing you need is to get defensive or snotty
about it, because most of us have been-there-done-that and might be able to
help you a great deal as a validating resource when you're through..
