Documented history

Accident Investigator (NMOS)

1 October 2017 is the scheduled active-component MOS batch-change date in paragraph 4001.1b. Paragraph 4002.2 instead prints 1 October 2008, a conflicting instruction; the 2017 date follows the FY18 edition's explicit implementation schedule.

  • The record identifies description and requirement changes but does not explain the revised duties or requirements.
  • Reserve retraining for Prior Service MOS Retraining Program, Active Reserve and Selected Marine Corps Reserve Marines was required as applicable and subject to available funds; entries for Individual Mobilization Augmentees, Individual Ready Reservists and Standby Reservists used the headquarters-origin conversion action on the unit's Diary Feedback Report as authority.
  • Formal schools and training detachments were to continue awarding current MOSs until a MARADMIN directed implementation.
Source extraction notes

Source new title: Traffic Management and Collision Investigator (TMCI) (NMOS)(5811). Figure 4-1 remarks: 2, 7. NAVMC 1200.1C (FY18) paragraph 4001.1b schedules the active-duty-component MCTFS batch for 2017-10-01. Paragraph 4001.6 separately addresses Reserve retraining, subject to available funds for the specified groups, and records for Individual Mobilization Augmentees, Individual Ready Reservists and Standby Reservists. Paragraph 4002.3 keeps formal-school MOS awards unchanged until MARADMIN implementation direction. The scheduled batch date is not proof of an individual's qualification, retraining or record-update completion. Paragraph 4002.2 prints 1 October 2008, in conflict with the 1 October 2017 schedule in paragraph 4001.1b. The recorded date follows the edition-specific schedule in paragraph 4001.1b; the conflicting printed instruction is not silently corrected.
