- hansthehorse 4y agoWhile in the USN in the 70's I found out I could take any self study course of any rating (job) on the ship. I got all the training and promotion study materials for the Quartermaster rating and taught myself celestial navigation. The actual Quartermasters were excited that someone who worked in the engine room was interested in their job and were a huge help. It's a fascinating skill to have and practice.
