544 Control Station Operator

Appendix B identifies SSN 544 as Control Station Operator under AR 615-26, September 1942 and supplements, and lists SSN 763 as a suggested conversion. This was not an automatic replacement: each affected Marine’s Qualification Card had to be reviewed against the job specifications before assigning the appropriate specialty.

Documented history

Control Station Operator

June 1945 is the manual’s publication date. No effective date is given for the suggested conversion, so it does not establish when SSN 544 ended or an individual’s classification changed.

  • No title is listed for SSN 544 in the June 1945 Present Title column; the earlier title does not establish a continuing 1945 specialty.
  • The entry does not establish a fixed transition to SSN 763.
