More EN rating info stuff...
Engineman (EN) Enginemen are responsible for internal diesel and gasoline engines. They also maintain refrigeration, air-conditioning, distilling plant engines and compressors. Enginemen (ENs)operate, service and repair internal combustion engines used to power some of the Navy's ships and most of the Navy's small craft. Most enginemen work with diesel engines. Enginemen also operate and maintain electrohydraulic controllable pitch propeller systems and steering engines, refrigeration and air conditioning systems, air compressors, desalinization plants and small auxiliary boilers. Enginemen perform their duties in surface ships. The duties performed by ENs include:
Enginemen work in engine rooms or shops which, at times, may be warm and noisy. They may also work outdoors aboard small craft. The work performed is sometimes physical. Although enginemen often work closely with others, they may also be required to work alone with limited supervision.
