USS ULVERT M. MOORE DE 442
The #1 Switchboard in the #1 Engine Room (1 level below the main deck)

"I was standing about midship looking aft and to the port.  The third panel on the right is the degaussing panel. Usually a rated electrician, 3/c or higher, stood watch here.  Note the clipboard laying on the handrail. This was the smoothest place to ride in rough seas!"
