GQ stands for "General Quarters," or more commonly known as "battle stations." GQ is set for multiple reasons, to include preparing for battle, reacting to hostile forces, major equipment casualties when out to sea, or even just for training. When GQ is set, the Boatswain's Mate of the Watch will sound the GQ alarm, and then say the following:

"General Quarters, General Quarters. All hands man battlestations. Traffic pattern is up and forward starboard, down and aft port. Reason for General Quarters is..." at which point they'll tell the ship's crew the reason for GQ, in order for everyone to maintain situational awareness.
