I remember one run we had an MM for a COB, an MM Bull Nuke, an MM Nuke Chief, an MM A Div Chief and an MM Baby Chief in M div. I think that is some kind of record for Chiefs of the same rate on a Boat. ------------- Walt, Had I done everything right throughout my life, the World wouldn't have noticed. |

OMG! All at the same time in the same patrol! That is just too many machinists simultaneously mating. Probably made the sonar girls take down their brocade drapes and who knows what other atrocities. I'm just saying . . .  ------------- It has been my experience that folks who have no vices have very few virtues.~Abe Lincoln SS-393, SSBN-610(B), SSBN-624(G), SSN-591 USSVI Life Member; Holland Club; Plank Owner, Smoky Mtn.

I think you mean rating not rate? |

Could be, that was in the seventies, and that was a long time ago. I meant MM's. There was a point the entire division was E-6 or above. ------------- Walt, Had I done everything right throughout my life, the World wouldn't have noticed. |

The navy is a little odd in "rate" not "rank" and then "rating" for job description. IE Making rate in one's rating. |

Rank = commissioned officers Rate = E-1, E-2, ... E-8, E-9. Rating = MM, EM, EN, QM, RM, ... etc. ------------- Jon Krup, Skimmer - Minesweeps |
