During my Engineer's Tour of the USS Missouri, I think the docent said that each space required six to eight crew members, but I'm not sure.
I know that Dreadnought works on the New Jersey, so I figured this would be the best place to ask.
How many men manned each boiler and engine room, and what were the engineering watches?
