It does happen, but it's not terribly common. Large decks such as carriers do maintain a security department, although it's small and only a fraction of that is junior sailors (E4 and below).

Your days are either flying or non-flying.

On flying days, you'll obviously spend most of it flying. Average flights are anywhere from 8 to 12 hours. You'll come in for pre-flight, fly the...

Not all IT's are ATF contracts. So if it's not written into his contract then he would not fall into that category.

The ATF folks get extra training to fill critical NECs, which usually...
