i have a hunch (no Young Frankenstein references, PB) that it was probably the third section leader in the aft torpedo room.

i think that there are certain positions(billets) that are pre-disposed for certain actions and reactions. i think that they are hard-coded in the injury subroutines or have a higher percentage of probability of injury in some internal table. i think this because it seems that the same guys are always hurt first and the worst.

one of them is the 3rd section Aft Torpedo Room. he is pre-disposed to be the first one injured when that room is attacked. another position is the 1st section of the Command Room.

i do not think there is anything we can do about it but play, watch, and learn.
