More ND rating info stuff...
Navy Diver (ND) Navy Divers are responsible for a wide variety of tasks like underwater ship maintenance, construction, explosive ordnance disposal (EOD), and underwater rescue. They are assigned to Naval Special Warfare Units to provide diving technical expertise and supervisory support to all submersible operations. Navy Diver (ND's) Navy Fleet Divers perform underwater salvage, repair and maintenance, submarine rescue and support Special Warfare and Explosive Ordnance Disposal while using a variety of diving equipment. They also maintain and repair diving systems. Duties performed by NDs include:
The motto of the Navy Diver community is “We dive the world over”. Because divers may be assigned in any part of the world, their environment will vary as widely as water conditions: cold, muddy waters where underwater tasks can be completed by feel only, or warm, tropical waters clear enough to perform underwater photography. A-School (Job School) Information
After as little as two years, Second Class Divers are eligible for First Class Diver training which leads to assignment in a variety of jobs requiring advanced knowledge of diving systems. Security Clearance Requirement: Secret Other Requirements
recruiters (Dive Motivators) at RTC give presentations on the Navy's diver programs, conduct the physical training screening tests, and assist interested people with their applications. People who enter the Navy in the nuclear, advanced electronics or other five or six-year enlistment programs are not eligible for diver programs. This course is physically and mentally demanding, but the individual who accepts the challenges is rewarded with extra pay for diving, parachuting and demolition plus extraordinary duty assignments.
