Ship board fire fighting is a chore. Everyone that embarks on a ship has to have some rudimentary fire fighting training. I have embarked on LSDs, LHDs, LSDs and one ancient LST.

Ha..my first time underway we traversed the Indian Ocean on an LST going from Japan to Africa (Marine passenger, not crew). I puked for three days. Subsequent floats were on LHDs and and LPDs...thank god. Flat bottoms suck...on girls and ships.

Supposedly most of the crew was off because it was undergoing maintenance and it was Sunday. Not sure what the fixed firefighting system is in the spaces CO2, foam. But they usually disconnect the CO2 in a shipyard to avoid an accidental discharge.
More than likely the fire watch wasn’t doing their job.
