Yes, the actual term is "General Quarters" and every member of the crew had an assigned station, depending on rate and rating. Rating refers to your specialty, rate is rank, with respect to enlisted personnel. I was a Gunner's Mate, and since I was on a supply ship from which the AA gun mounts had been removed I was assigned to one of the damage control parties, which were stationed at various places throughout the ship. But yes, during General Quarters, everyone is expected to be on station and ready for action.
