Watch Information - General

Watch Exchange Forms:  Once the watch exchange form has been approved, the following is the proper routing:

Pink: Cadet filling out the Watch Exchange Form
Yellow: Cadet assuming the watch
White:  Deck watches - Quarterdeck

           Engine watches - EOS

           Campus watches - CDO office

Campus watches may be filled by cadets of any major.  Cadets may be assigned the campus watch of the same level as their other watch qualification (ie.  A CWO can stand the ACDO watch).

CDO Watches:  CDO watch is a 24-hour watch commencing with relief at 0745 in the Corps Office. The 0745 watch relief is for both the ongoing and off-going CDO.

Scheduled Classes vs. Watch: Since scheduled classes and watches are mandatory, Division Executive Officers are required to work the watch schedule around your class schedules.  However, it is your responsibility to ensure your Division Executive Officer knows if there is a conflict between a scheduled class and watch.

In the case of the Meteorology Class where ALL 2/c Deck cadets are required to attend, a waiver has been granted in order for the CWO watch to be filled by the N/M until the 2/c returns to the ship from class.

Work vs. Watch: The Division Commanders and Executive Officers have been very accommodating in trying to schedule watches around everyone’s limitations, however, they can’t please everyone. Work is not an authorized excuse to miss watch.  If you are scheduled for a watch that conflicts with work, you need to fill out a watch exchange form to cover the watch. As a head’s up, the further in advance for next semester that you can let your Division CO and XO know of conflicts, the better the chance that they may be able to accommodate you.
