To see the date Mr. Baker then joined the USS CAPERTON look at the first line of the table below that starts with ROC. ROC is short for Report of Change. The Muster Rolls used to obtain this information recorded all transitional activity including being received onto the Caperton, Leaving the Caperton. Promotions, demotions. Each Change is recorded as an ROC with some details and the Rating of the sailor included. Clicking on the blue ROC Page button to the right of the line will bring up a copy of the actual ROC Page so that you can download it if you wish.
The MROTC is a quarterly report of all sailors reported on the ship. As such the Status Change and Change columns would be blank. TRAN. is for Transferred OFF the USS Caperton while REC is Received ON TO the USS Caperton.
