Museum curator, Rob Doane, gives a demonstration of a historical naval wargaming kit used by the US Navy in the late 20th century. Though similar looking to a modern strategy game, it was actually issued by the US Naval War College for officers to practice their command, control, and decision making skills whilst off campus out on the fleet. As you can see the kit includes a map, us navy ship miniatures, dice, rules, reference charts.
The US Naval War College has historically made great use of naval wargaming as a part of their curriculum from just after the US Civil War through to the World War and even today in the modern era. In another video I showcased their historical wargaming facilities.
