Notes & Sources
- NEC 9ARY is a language capability code for Arabic-Moroccan. The Navy Enlisted Classification manual lists 9ARY in the language table under '9ACE-9ZHO - Language Capability (Billets and Personnel)', which identifies proficiency in a foreign language required for billets and personnel.
- The code records measured language proficiency (Interagency Language Roundtable scale, with annual recertification), not interpreter, translator or cryptologic-linguist duties, so occupation-specific skills, career paths and credentials are not published from this identifier alone.
