You've said too much already.

What? This is my first post in this thread.
*Cheesy alert* , @TLDR20
You're a Corpsman. You're proud to be a Corpsman. You are part of the most decorated rate in the U.S. military with 23 Medal of Honors. You will go through hell and back for a wounded Marine and you bear the weight of the expectations that come with introducing yourself as a Corpsman.
Then one morning they remove the title because it's not gender neutral and tell you that your official title now is Medical Technician and also that all other rates have had their titles stripped.
It's just a title. It's nothing, but it's everything. My .02c
I think that just means that NEC's aren't really changing. So a BM1 with NEC 0170 is now (PO1) B400 with NEC 0170. I can't say that I'm really a fan though...Another article about the changes. Honestly, it is all very confusing. NEC's fall within NOS's?
The end of ratings: What's next in the Navy's radical enlisted shake-up
Marines will still call their Corpsmen, "Doc." That ain't going nowhere, Sailor. It's part of the lingo, like scuttlebutt, pogiebait and swab-jockey.
What? This is my first post in this thread.
Damn it! I don't know why after all these years I still mix you and @Marauder06 up from time to time. My apologies to whichever of you is most offended!
@Marauder06 by far.
Ratings restored: Effective immediately, sailors will get their job titles back
Well that didn't last long...
