Well said.
I really didn't want to touch this thread as I have done my research into HM and there's too much emotion and heartache expressed.

HMs, being the largest single rating, have a broad range of personality types, skill sets and heroism. I've compared CNA training to what's covered in NAVEDTRA 14295B. To say that an HM is merely a CNA is a gross generalization. I'm sure there are HMs that bring shame to the rate and may be considered just a CNA...but they are few and far between just like the few HMs the bring great honor to the rate.
