Days of Future Past

A Quick Guide

1. What you will initially see is the default view of the database of the officers. It is sorted in alphabetical order by name and initially shows ten entries.
2. To the right of the PRINT box is a quantity box that allows you to view more than 10 records at a time. The maximum number is 100. Scroll down to view more records.
3. If you wish to limit your view to ten records at a time, there are navigation buttons at the bottom of the list by page number. The advantage to viewing only 10 records at a time is that the column headers always remain visible.
4. The simplest way to find a record is to use the SEARCH bar at the top right of the list. Type in a last name.
5. The headers of each column have two blue arrows (up and down). These allow you to sort by ascending or descending order.

What do those data elements mean?

1. Name is listed in standard order, Last-First-Middle name. It includes a suffix (e.g., "Jr") where appropriate.
2. File Number is the unique ID number that the Navy assigned to each officer.
3. Branch is either the active-duty Navy branch or the Reserve component, which can be deployed in times of war or national emergency.
4. PO is Plank Owner, a crew member who was assigned to the ship on the day that Elmore was commissioned – 25 August 1943.
5. The Start Date was the day that the officer came aboard Elmore.
6. The Exit Date was the day that the officer departed Elmore.
7. The Total Days are the total number of days that the officer served aboard Elmore.
8. Initial Rank was the officer's rank on the day that he reported aboard Elmore. This is listed as an abbreviation of the full title.
9. Initial Rank Title simply spells out the abbreviation of the full title.
10. Exit Rank was the officer's rank on the day that he departed Elmore. This is listed as an abbreviation of the full title.
11. Exit Rank Title simply spells out the abbreviation of the full title on the day of departure.
12. City is the city that the officer listed as his home as provided with the name of a contact person.
13. St or State is the state that the officer listed as his home. It corresponds to the city listed.
