AWF - Naval Aircrewman Mechanical
When you need to move high-priority cargo from Point A to Point B—and Point B is miles out to sea, steaming at 30 knots—you call in a Naval Aircrewman Mechanical. As in-flight personnel, AWFs maintain and troubleshoot aircraft while carefully handling million-dollar equipment on board. Perform everything from medical evacuations to small arms transports to delivering necessities to your fellow Sailors out at sea. You’ll even act as our eyes and ears in the sky, mapping coasts and ports for Navy intelligence. If you feel more at home above the sea than on it, Aircrewman Mechanical might be the job for you.
