Upon approaching the quarterdeck of any ship or submarine via its brow, you first come to attention (if a military member), face the National Ensign at the stern of the ship, salute, face the Officer of the Day/Deck (OOD) or the quarterdeck/topside watch, salute, and say "Request permission to come aboard". You of course add "Sir" if the person present is an Officer.
For civilians, they approach the quarterdeck, acknowledge the Ensign, (veterans may salute if under cover, civilians remove hat) turn and face the OOD or watch, and repeat the same phrase. They will then ask your business and request ID, verify any security clearance required to board, as well as possibly searching anything you are carrying.
For Flag Officers and Commanding Officers, the quarterdeck watch will also strike the appropriate number of bells on the ship's bell, and announce their arrival (by command title) over the 1MC (general announcement circuit).
