I think it would a great visual addition to see the decks lined with the crew during these events. Even better would be if they looked a little more war weary when returning and fresh faced at departure.
I think what you're referring to is 'Set the Special Sea Detail'. All the ship's company, not on actual maneuvering watch, line the decks in their 'undress blues' when departing/arriving. It would be neat if the Arriving Sea Detail looked a little more 'salty'.

I really miss the short movie that showed the sub docking (returning) with a brass band playing 'Stars & Stripes Forever' in the background.

Perhaps someone could come up with a short movie that would play during Departure/Arrival, rather than an actual mod that would have to use moving models. In other words: KISS it!
You have it skipper, I was just uncertain of the correct term to use, being that I served in the Army........lol I have wondered if it could be something that was triggered by a button, rather like the Battle Stations one.
