This NAVADMIN establishes the Yeoman (Submarine) (YNS), Logistics Specialist (Submarine) (LSS), Culinary Specialist (Submarine) (CSS) and Fire Controlman (Aegis) (FCA) service ratings. These establishments are primarily administrative in nature and are expected to minimally impact the fleet. In line with reference (a), YNS, LSS and CSS service ratings are warranted because specialized skills, as well as specific areas of qualifications, have been identified for personnel onboard submarines separate from their respective general ratings. The FCA service rating is warranted because specialized skills, as well as specific areas of qualifications, have been identified for personnel that serve as FCA separate from the general Fire Controlman rating. These establishments will permit optimum management and utilization of personnel, and economy of training. Additional value will be gained for manpower, personnel, training and education because these new service ratings establish new rating control numbers that will augment current manpower programs, ultimately decreasing inventory inaccuracies. These new service ratings will only apply to active- duty (excluding Full- Time Support) Sailors and billets. 2. The establishment of the service ratings will be effective on the following schedule: a. 2 September 2017 for E6 b. 17 October 2017 for E7-E9 c. 28 November 2017 for E1-E5 3.
