Cryptology presen r man]' 1 rhile tl 1 You" select 1 id fall' rea, S 11 4:45 VU ■J'fJSi Corp ' c 5 k __ pairf |f .L MOT? ^NY INC' The field of cryptology combines two opposite skills — cryptography and cryptanalysis. Cryptography is the art of disguising communications to protect them. Cryp tanalysis is the art of deciphering coded communications. Each year a very limited number of applicants are selected to attend Officer Candidate School as prospective cryp tologic officers. Those who succeed are commissioned and then assigned to the Navy Security Group. Because of the highly technical nature of the Navy Se curity Group’s work, scientific and tech nical backgrounds such as electrical engineering, math, physics and compu- science/data processing are pre- The Navy Security Group also sends a limited number of officers to study languages, primarily Russian and Chin ese, at the Defense Language Institute. To be selected for language instruction, an officer must have demonstrated an aptitude for languages in previous schooling or achieved a satisfactory grade on the Foreign Language Ap titude Test. We can’t describe the day-to-day workings of the Navy Security Group or the specific duties of cryptologic officers because they are largely classified. However, we can say that during the course of their careers cryptologic offi cers can look forward to a variety of challenging assignments. Geophysics The knowledge and teamwork needed to solve meteorological, ocean ographic and hydrographic problems form an important and highly spe cialized area of naval operations — an area that requires officers whose ranks are small in number but large in terms of technical expertise. Applicants must have a degree in meteorology, oceanography, geodesy or another field of earth science, physi cal science or engineering. Other re quirements include two semesters of calculus and two semesters of calculus- based physics. An introduction to com puter systems management, photo- grammetry and cartography is viewed as a plus. A degree in marine biology, geology or chemistry, unsupported by work in mathematics, physics, oceanography and meteorology, is not sufficient for entry into this career field. Newly commissioned geophysics of ficers normally are sent to one of the Naval Oceanography Command centrs, facilities or detachments. The Fleet Numerical Oceanography Center and oceanographic survey units are al so possible assignments. Primary emphasis is on operational fleet support. Typical tours include op erational meteorological and oceano graphic forecasting, interfacing with Navy research and development ef forts, and conducting oceanographic surveys. Geophysics officers are exposed to great diversity in the application of three primary sciences within the Navy and the Department of Defense (DoD), as well as through interface with non-DoD and international agencies. This fosters professional growth and enables these officers to assume positions of increas ing responsibilities as their careers progress. Intelligence A select, limited number of college graduates qualify each year as pros pective naval intelligence officers. They first attend either the Aviation Officer Candidate School in Pensacola, Flori da, where they train with Navy pilots and flight officers, or the Officer Candi date School in Newport, Rhode Island, where they train with prospective sur face warfare officers. Upon commissioning, they begin the basic intelligence course for Navy offi cers at the Armed Forces Air Intelli gence Training Center, Lowry Air Force Base, Denver. Colorado. This rigorous training is normally fol lowed by a three-year tour of duty aboard ship, at a shore-based aviation squadron, or a major staff headquar ters. Typical functions of the newly com missioned intelligence officer include maintaining plots of enemy forces, briefing pilots and senior officers on the current enemy situation, debriefing pilots after missions and compiling the information obtained, operating ship board intelligence processing facilities, analyzing aerial photographs, and maintaining escape and evasion plans. The primary function of a naval intelli gence officer is to assist the comman der in decisionmaking. Supply Corps The Supply Corps, the huge arm of the Navy that tends to its material re quirements, offers a fascinating array of challenging career opportunities, par ticularly to those with a college back ground in business or management. The first assignment for all new Sup ply Corps officers is the Navy Supply Corps officers is the Navy Supply Corps School in Athens, Georgia. Here offi cers are instructed in the basic courses required to qualify them for general supply management at the junior officer level. Subjects taught include disburs ing, personnel management, food ser vice and retail operations management, and introduction to quantitative man agement. Following this training, most officers are ordered to jobs at sea where they serve as heads of departments on small ships or as assistants to senior supply officers. Supply Corps officers, like other Navy officers, are encouraged to plan their careers and to take advantage of further educational opportunities. There are many billets open to officers in the Supply Corps which require specialized education in such management areas as systems inventory, finance, procure ment, transportation, merchandising, food service, petroleum, operations re search/systems analysis, computer systems and general supply. Civil Engineering The naval shore establishment is where Navy men and women and their families live, work and play. It is homes, schools, streets, parks and factories; hospitals, science and research cen ters, airports, docks, canals and radio stations; railroads, communication sys tems and — oddly enough for the Navy — millions of acres of timberland, and oil and mineral deposits. One group of Navy officers manages this incredible mix of military and civi lian facilities: the Navy Civil Engineer Corps (CEC). The CEC is a relatively small group of officers, all of whom are engineers or architects. Applicants for a commission in the CEC will benefit by obtaining their engi- neer-in-training (EIT) certificate during their senior year at college. All CEC officers are encouraged to obtain their professional engineer license when they have gained the required experi ence. CEC applicants must have at least a bachelor’s degree in engineering from an institution accredited by the Accred itation Board for Engineering and Tech nology. Preferred fields are civil, me chanical, electrical, ocean, architectur al, petroleum or construction engineer ing. Degrees in engineering technology are not qualifying, but architecture de grees accredited by the National Ar chitectural Accrediting Board, Inc., are acceptable. There are few organizations in the world that offer so many engineering and construction challenges as the CEC. Challenges include planning, de sign and construction of Navy bases, which are often the size of small cities and include just as many different kinds of facilities, to the engineering and de sign of fixed structures on the ocean floor. These challenges can offer enor mously satisfying career opportunities to those who qualify.
