MM - Machinist's Mate
Navy ships are constantly crossing the ocean, traveling hundreds of thousands of miles to the shores of every continent on Earth. As a Machinist’s Mate, you help ensure your ship arrives safely by maintaining the propulsion and auxiliary systems that get the crew in place for the mission. Your experience will include work across every inch of the ship, so whether you’re repairing a steam turbine or adjusting an aircraft elevator, you can expect to gain thorough working knowledge of all things mechanical on ships like cruisers and destroyers.
