About: Seabee

An Entity of Type: Navy Expeditionary Combat Command, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

United States Naval Construction Battalions, better known as the Navy Seabees, form the U.S. Naval Construction Force (NCF). The Seabee nickname is a heterograph of the initial letters "CB" from the words "Construction Battalion". Depending upon context, "Seabee" can refer to all enlisted personnel in the USN's occupational field 7 (OF-7), all personnel in the Naval Construction Force (NCF), or Construction Battalion. Seabees serve both in and outside the NCF. During World War II they were plank-holders of both the Naval Combat Demolition Units and the Underwater Demolition Teams (UDTs).

  • United States Naval Construction Battalions, better known as the Navy Seabees, form the U.S. Naval Construction Force (NCF). The Seabee nickname is a heterograph of the initial letters "CB" from the words "Construction Battalion". Depending upon context, "Seabee" can refer to all enlisted personnel in the USN's occupational field 7 (OF-7), all personnel in the Naval Construction Force (NCF), or Construction Battalion. Seabees serve both in and outside the NCF. During World War II they were plank-holders of both the Naval Combat Demolition Units and the Underwater Demolition Teams (UDTs). The men in the NCF considered these units to be "Seabee". In addition, Seabees served as elements of Cubs, Lions, Acorns and the United States Marine Corps. They also provided the manpower for the top secret CWS Flame Tank Group. Today the Seabees have many special task assignments starting with Camp David and the Naval Support Unit at the Department of State. Seabees serve under both Commanders of the Naval Surface Forces Atlantic/Pacific fleets as well as on many base Public Works and USN diving commands. Naval Construction Battalions were conceived of as replacements for civilian construction companies in combat zones after the attack on Pearl Harbor. At the time civilian contractors had roughly 70,000 men working U.S.N. contracts overseas. International law made it illegal for civilian workers to resist an attack. Doing so would classify them as guerrillas and could lead to summary execution. That is exactly what happened at Wake and would serve as the backstory to the World War II movie The Fighting Seabees. Adm. Moreell's concept model CB was a USMC trained military equivalent of those civilian companies: able to work anywhere, under any conditions or circumstances. It was realized that CBs were flexible, adaptable and could be utilized in every theater of operations. The use of USMC organization allowed for smooth co-ordination, integration or interface between NCF and Marine Corps elements. Additionally, CBs could be deployed individually or in multiples as the project scope and scale dictated. What distinguishes Seabees from Combat Engineers are the skill sets. Combat Engineering is but a sub-set in the Seabee toolbox. They have a storied legacy of creative field ingenuity, stretching from Normandy and Okinawa to Iraq and Afghanistan. Adm. Ernest King wrote to the Seabees on their second anniversary, "Your ingenuity and fortitude have become a legend in the naval service." Seabees believe that anything they are tasked with, they "Can Do". They were unique at conception and remain unchanged from Adm. Moreell's model today. In the October 1944 issue of Flying, the Seabees are described as "a phenomenon of WWII". (en)
  • シービー (United States Navy Seabee) はアメリカ海軍の建設工兵隊。戦場における基地や道路の建設、防衛が任務。SeabeeはもともとConstruction Battalion(建設大隊)の省略形であるCB、および蜂 (Bee) のように働き者であるということから海の蜂(Seabee)として語呂を合わせたもの。Sea Beeの表記も見かけるが、正式にはSeabeeは一語である。 公式モットーはConstruimus, Batuimus(「われわれは建て、戦う」)。最もよく知られた非公式モットーは"Can do!"(「やればできる」)である。 (ja)
  • I Seabees sono i genieri militari della United States Navy. I soldati di queste unità sono inquadrati in construction battalions (letteralmente battaglioni da costruzione) e si occupano di edificare e manutenere le opere infrastrutturali della marina in tempo di pace e di guerra. Il nome Seabee che letteralmente vuol dire ape del mare (con l'accostamento all'operosità dei suoi membri) è in realtà la pronuncia dell'acronimo CB, le iniziali appunto di Construction Battalion. I reparti vennero fondati il 5 marzo 1942. Il loro motto, in latino, è Construimus, Batuimus ("Costruiamo, combattiamo" (quello ufficioso è "Possiamo farlo!"). Le sue dimensioni al 2012 erano di 6,888 militari attivi e 6,927 di personale della riserva navale per un totale di 13,815. (it)
  • Seabees (dosłownie: morskie pszczoły) – w Stanach Zjednoczonych powszechnie przyjęte określenie żołnierzy Batalionów Roboczych US Navy (ang. United States Navy Construction Battalions, skr. USNCB). Słowo „Seabee” wywodzi się ze skrótu nazwy batalionów roboczych (ang. Construction Battalion) „CB”. Seabees zajmują się budową i utrzymaniem baz wojskowych, dróg, lotnisk, a także rozlicznymi pracami konstrukcyjnymi, obecni w wielu operacjach militarnych od II wojny światowej poczynając. Podstawową formacją Naval Construction Forces (NCF) jest batalion. Bataliony seabees są organizowane tak, by w polu były samodzielne i samowystarczalne. Ich nazwa, w nomenklaturze NCF, z biegiem lat ulegała zmianom: * od 1942 do 1949: Naval Construction Battalion (NCB) * od 1949 do 1974: Mobile Construction Battalion (MCB) * od 1974 do chwili obecnej: Naval Mobile Construction Battalion (NMCB) Od początków lat sześćdziesiątych do roku 1991 bataliony rezerwy nazywano Reserve Naval Mobile Construction Battalions (RNMCB). Po 1991 roku wszystkim batalionom rezerwy NCF przywrócono nazwę NMCB dla podkreślenia integracji jednostek rezerwowych z działającymi i aktywnymi. (pl)
  • Seabees são membros dos batalhões de construção da Marinha dos Estados Unidos. A palavra Seabee é um nome próprio que vem das iniciais de Batalhão de Construção (CB) da Marinha dos Estados Unidos. Os militares americanos têm uma longa história de construção de bases, terraplenagem e a pavimentação de milhares de quilômetros de estrada e pistas de pouso, e realizar uma miríade de outros projetos de construção em uma ampla variedade de teatros militares, iniciaram com a Segunda Guerra Mundial em 1942.

  • Seabees är namnet på ingenjörsförbanden i USA:s flotta. Namnet Seabees (Sjöbin) är en heterograf och kommer från det engelskspråkiga uttalet av CB, som är en förkortning för Construction Battalion (byggnadsbataljon), som är ingenjörsförbandens grundorganisation. (sv)
