question about loudspeaker announcement

[Sea Hag]

On our cruise last fall on the Star, more than once there was an announcement over the loudspeaker, somthing like this:

 

------ team, to the Wheelhouse Bar (Wheelhouse Bar is a for instance, and the dashes are the word we can't remember)

 

Given the forgettery going on here and the fact that we can't remember what the team was, does anybody know anything about this? I was going to post this when we got back, and maybe even when I still remembered the team name, but I forgot to do that. All this forgetting can't be due to the fact that I'm getting older, can it? :D

On previous cruises we would hear "Code Alpha team" which is a medical emergency. Could that be what you heard.

Sea AHag, I was asking my DH about this and he just remembered whata we heard. The loudspeaker was calling for the Assessment Team and then gave a cabin #. Now we found out that Assessment Team is for Emergency use. Now that entails quite abit but I think you get the picture.

I have been on a sailing with a code Oscar. We didn't find out until later it was for someone overboard. We were in port at the time, but boy did the staff scramble. We never found out if it was real or a drill.

I believe that an Assessment Team call is when someone sets off an alarm (fire alarm?) and they send a group out to investigate.
