About: Wardroom

An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The wardroom is the mess cabin or compartment on a warship or other military ship for commissioned naval officers above the rank of midshipman. Although the term typically applies to officers in a navy, it is also applicable to marine officers and coast guard officers in those nations that have such service branches. Typically, the mess compartment aboard a naval or coast guard vessel, and on larger vessels, such as aircraft carriers of the United States Navy, there may be more than one wardroom.

  • Gunrum är den svenska beteckningen på officersmässen ombord på örlogsfartyg. Ordet är ett lånord från engelskans gunroom, kanonrum, som användes som beteckning på de yngre officernas mäss på brittiska örlogsfartyg (de äldre officerarna mässade i ett "wardroom" vilket även är den korrekta översättningen till engelska av det svenska "gunrum"). Det engelska namnet "gunroom" kommer av att fartygets artilleriofficerare (gunners), som ansvarade för avfyrandet av kanonerna i äldre tider, hade denna särskilda sov- och matplats ombord. Rummet användes alltså inte för att förvara kanoner i. (sv)
