Notes & Sources
- NOOCS Part A (Edition 96, Jul 2026) defines officer designator 150X as: “A Restricted Line AED Flag Officer or Captain who was formerly either an AED officer (Aerospace Engineering--designator 151X) or an AMD officer (Aviation Maintenance--designator 152X)”
- The designator row is an identity/qualification statement, not a duty description, so occupation-specific skills, career paths, and credential recommendations are not published here; duties depend on the billet and community qualification.
