Officer (CPO) is usually addressed as "Chief". When his name or speciality isn't
known, a seaman is addressed as a "Sailor".
The term of respect "Sir" is used in conversation with offs and civilian officials,
especially in answering questions - "Yes, Sir" and "No, Sir". In the conversation
with female offs, the term "Ma’m" is used.
