Maybe this is the old sailor in me, but can the ratings be changed to anything but a BM (well, a working rating not a YN or ST)? I mean no offense to BMs (maybe a little) or to seaman strikers, but I was a MM and a fireman before I made it up the the most petty of officers. It would be nice to see the red stripes. Also, coming from the MM ilk, the gold chevrons were not too common....same for some if not all the BMs I knew as well. ;)
