Medical petty officer's armband translation

[bldrhouse]

Google gave me "Children's disease."

Can that be correct?

Gratitude always.

[Toritoribe]

病室甲板下士（患者長）

病室甲板下士 means hospital deck petty officer, i.e., petty officer on a/the hospital deck (of a ship).
患者長 would refer to the chief officer in charge of patients.

Toritobe (what does that mean?), thank you,
Surprised the Google translation was so off!

With Appreciation, Zigy

 

[Toritoribe]

Toritoribe is an official position name in the ancient Japanese government, and also the etymology of my home town. It roughly means "Swan Catcher". (Actually, the correct reading of the position is Totoribe, though.)

Thank you; love "Swan catcher!" and thanks for spelling correction.\
