No. 4 enters Rammer, and, assisted by 3, pushes in the Shell until the mark on handle shows it to be in place. It is most strictly forbidden to strike the Shell with the Rammer.
No. 6 takes Rammer from 4 and lays it down.
Whilst this has been doing, the preparation for the next order has been proceeding, thus:
2d Captain ships Roller Handspike. Nos. 7, 9, 11, 13, 15,—8, 10, 12, 14, 16 take hold of Side-tackles; Gun Captain feels if Vent is clear, and Charge home.
Action.
(This is equivalent to the order "Together.")
Nos. 5, 6 assist at Side-tackles.
Nos. 3, 4 attend Truck-quoins and keep the Breeching clear of Front-trucks.
No. 12, assisted in heavy rolling of lee guns by 11, prepares to tend Train-tackle. If necessary with a round turn round all parts of the fall.
VI. "RUN OUT!"
(Diagram No. 3.)
222. The execution of this order is to be controlled by the gun being to windward or to leeward, and also by the nature of the Roll.
