715 Tank NCO

Appendix B identifies SSN 715 as “Tank NCO” in the June 1944 tentative manual and suggests SSN 736 as a possible replacement. This was not an automatic conversion: each affected Marine’s Qualification Card had to be reviewed against the job specifications before selecting the appropriate classification.
