SUBJ/ESTABLISHMENT OF SUBMARINE AND NUCLEAR SERVICE RATINGS//

REF/A/DOC/NAVPERS/JUL15//
AMPN/REF A IS NAVPERS 18068F, MANUAL OF NAVY ENLISTED MANPOWER AND PERSONNEL 
CLASSIFICATIONS AND OCCUPATIONAL STANDARDS (NEOCS)//

RMKS/1.  This NAVADMIN announces the establishment of the service ratings 
listed in paragraphs 2 and 3.  These changes are primarily administrative in 
nature and are expected to minimally impact the fleet.  Per reference (a), 
establishing these service ratings is warranted because the specific 
qualifications and specialized skills unique to each service rating 
necessitate the creation of these service ratings within their general 
rating.  For each new service rating, a rating control number (RCN) is 
assigned.  Establishment of a RCN provides the added benefit of improving the 
accuracy of Manpower, Personnel, Training, and Educations data to reflect 
fleet manning.

2.  The following new service ratings will apply to active-duty nuclear-
trained Sailors and billets:
    a.  Electricians Mate, Nuclear Power (EMN), RCN 4101
    b.  Electronics Technician, Nuclear Power (ETN), RCN 1003
    c.  Machinists Mate, Nuclear Power (MMN), RCN 3703

3.  The following new service ratings will apply to active-duty, full time 
support, and selected reserve non-nuclear trained Sailors and billets:
    a.  Electronics Technician, Submarine, Navigation (ETV), RCN 1001
    b.  Electronics Technician, Submarine, Communications (ETR), RCN 1002
    c.  Machinists Mate, Non-Nuclear, Submarine Weapons (MMW), RCN 3702
    d.  Machinists Mate, Non-Nuclear, Submarine Auxiliary (MMA), RCN 3701

4.  The establishment of the service ratings and RCNs will take effect 45 
days after the release of this NAVADMIN.

5.  The service ratings will be applied to personnel serving in the following
