.......good question...!! this rating was JUST established by the U.S. Navy, effective 01 July of this year... it combines the rates of Journalist (JO), Photographer's Mate (PH) and (I think...) the rates of Lithographer and Draftsman.... lots of changes in the U.S. Navy these days....!! old ratings disappearing; new ratings being established (I'll bet you didn't know that the old rating of Commisaryman (CS) is gone.... was changed years ago to Mess Management Specialist, and withing the past couple of years to Culinary Specialist or some such..... oh, well; progress....!!!!!
