    Whenever you go to ‘action stations’, meaning the ship is in active combat, you wear a fireproof hood called antiflash, which is designed to resist the intense heat of an explosion or deflagration. It means only your eye area gets 3rd degree burns, not your whole head.

    Fun fact when your antiflash gets wet its just like being waterboarded.

    Even funner fact, it used to be made of asbestos.
