Crewing a cruiser-destroyer hybrid

The ship's mixed role suggests drawing personnel from both cruiser and destroyer communities.

Question

Would these ships use cruiser crews or progressive destroyer crews?

Short answer

Use a mixture of cruiser and destroyer personnel, including reservists with destroyer experience.

Notes

The proposed crew combines cruiser and destroyer personnel. Reservists who previously served in destroyers are included in that preference. The precise balance between the two groups remains open.
