[QUOTE="ECMO3, post: 9417052, member: 7030563"] But every Naval Aviator is a sailor. They won't let any sailor tie a ship to shore or run a fuel hose from one ship to another either. Only a Bosun does that. Not any sailor can run a gas turbine engine, only an Engineman does that. Not any sailor can arm bombs only an Aviation Ordnanceman does that. Every sailor can't work on ship wiring, only an Electricians Mate does that. All these jobs are specialized and all of the people doing them are sailors. (note on Fireman and Ordanceman - those are official Navy Rates and the term applies to both men and women with that rate). Every job on a large ship is specialized (except for firefighting which everyone has to know how to do even though there are specialists for that). A modern ship is staffed by hundreds or thousands of sailors, each with a specialized role and every one of them is a sailor. A Naval Aviator is a specialized sailor. [/QUOTE]
