Description
|
|
|
|
Some of the terms in the U.S. Navy argot are unique to the profession, like forecastle and scuttlebutt, though others may be more common words and phrases that have alternate meanings to sailors, like dead horse and tin can. Some are inherited from the Royal Navy, while others are the result of new technologies or are modifications of older terms. This dictionary, here in its sixth edition, is written for anyone who wishes or needs to be able to understand the language of the naval profession.
