407 Sound Mixer, Motion Picture

Appendix B lists SSN 407 as “Sound Mixer, Motion Picture” under AR 615-26, September 1942 and supplements, and suggests SSN 561 as a possible conversion. That suggestion required review of the individual Marine’s qualifications against the job specifications, not an automatic conversion.
