Navy
Sets New
Rating
WASHINGTON—Secretary of
the Navy J. William Mlddendorf,
II has announced the formation
of a new mess management
rating which will consolidate the
duties of two ratings. The new
Mess Management Specialist
(MS) rating will consolidate and
supersede the present Steward
(SD) and Commlsslonaryman
(CS) ratings In early 1975, and
will Include a complete restruc-
turing of training and assign-
ment duties.
The establishment of the new
rating represents a revision of
the Navy’s enlisted structure
to better' align the personnel
Inventory with Navy require-
ments.
A major feature of the new
rating will be that personnel
In the MS rating will be re-
sponsible for food preparation
and food service for both of-
ficer and enlisted messes. This
will do away with the need for
two separate ratings with dis-
tinct and separate duties.
Considerable savings are ex-
pected through the consolida-
tion of training, study guides,
correspondence courses and
advancement examinations.
The action Is also designed
to enhance and broaden career
opportunities for personnel new
In the Navy’s food service rat-
ings. Improvements will accrue
to ine Navy In the added ex-
pertise devoted to the manage-
ment at the bachelor enlisted
quarters program and to the
Individual through the expanded
range of assignments and types
of dutv.
Related measures to Improve
the mess management occupa-
tional field will continue the
process of civllianlzlng many
food service jobs ashore cur-
rently filled by lower paygrade
personnel. Consistent with this
change ashore, a messmanpool
afloat, drawn on a rotational
duty basis from ono-rated per-
sonnel on board, will assume
some of the shipboard dally
upkeep and maintenance duties
now performed In officers
spaces by stewards. A number
of functions will become the
responsibility of the individual
officer to accomplish.
There will be a transition
period to allow for cross-
uiiiiuii w» iUTSTd- m CIS"
mlssarymen In each other's
skills and for development of
a single advancement exami-
nation
Personnel currently In the
steward and com misery man
ratings will automatically w
converted to the mess manage-
ment specialist rating on Jan-
uary 1, 1676, with other changes
required to accomplish the
merger being phased in during
a three-year Interval.
