More MN rating info stuff...
Mineman (MN) Minemen test, maintain, and repair mines and their components. They are responsible for assembling, testing, and delivering mines to the planting agent. They maintain mine-handling and mine-laying equipment. Minemen perform their duties at sea aboard minesweepers assisting in the detection and neutralization of underwater mines. Ashore, minemen are technicians who test, assemble and maintain underwater explosive devices (mines). They test various electronic components to ensure proper repair and make sure that the mine works properly. They are also responsible for safe storage, handling and loading of mines for transporting. The duties performed by minemen include:
Work in the MN rating is usually performed in a small shop-type setting. Minemen work closely as a team, and individual jobs require both physical and mental talents at sea and ashore.

Now on the paper MEPS gave me the "About your Rate" if you will it said Ingleside, Tx as well 11weeks and the same with a few other places but then I read that the base/ school was closed and moved to San Diego.. I'm not quite sure where it is becuase I cant really dig up the info on it. Do you know if that is true and do you know if the length is still 11weeks at A school? and info would help. thanks in advance. |
