PART A Section 1 General 1. General Categories. and officer designator codes are grouped in general categories as follows: a. Unrestricted Line. s of the line of the Regular Navy and Naval Reserve who are not restricted in the performance of duty. b. Restricted Line. s of the line of the Regular Navy and Naval Reserve who are restricted in the performance of duty by having been designated for aviation duty, engineering duty, aerospace engineering duty, or special duty. c. Unrestricted Line - Prospective Staff Corps. Unrestricted Line officers under instruction as prospective officers of a specific staff corps. d. Staff Corps. of all staff corps of the Regular Navy and Naval Reserve. The eight staff corps are: (1) Medical Corps (5) Nurse Corps (2) Dental Corps (6) Supply Corps (3) Medical Service Corps (7) Chaplain Corps (4) Judge Advocate General's Corps (8) Civil Engineer Corps e. Limited Duty - Line. s of the line of the Regular Navy and Naval Reserve appointed for the performance of duty in the broad occupational fields indicated by their former warrant designators or enlisted rating groups. f. Limited Duty - Staff. s of the staff of the Regular Navy and Naval Reserve appointed for the performance of duty in the broad occupational fields indicated by their former warrant designators or enlisted rating groups. g. Chief Warrant - Line. s of the line of the Regular Navy and Naval Reserve appointed to chief warrant officer for the performance of duty in the technical fields indicated by former enlisted rating groups. h. Chief Warrant - Staff. s of the staff of the Regular Navy and Naval Reserve appointed to chief warrant officer for the performance of duty in the technical fields indicated by former enlisted rating groups. 2. Designator s a. The officer billet designator codes are four-digit numbers used to identify the primary naval specialty qualifications required of the billet incumbent and to administratively categorize officer billets for proper management and identification. They serve as a manpower management tool when used in conjunction with the officer designator codes. These codes are entered in the Manpower Authorizations (OPNAV Form 1000/2) to indicate the categories of officers required for the billets. b. Category Definitions of s Requiring Aeronautically Designated s (1) 0 - Other Than Operational Flying. This category billet (Designator s 13X0, 1500, 1510, and 1520) require an aeronautically designated officer because of his/her aviation oriented background, experience and warfare expertise, but no requirements exists to operate an aircraft or its weapons systems in support of specific aviation operational missions. Certain aeronautically designated incumbents of other than operational flying billets are eligible to participate while in a DIFDEN status as described in OPNAVINST 3710.7 series. A - 2

(2) 1 - Operational Flying. This category billet (Designator s 13X1, 15X1, 6321, and 7321) is derived from the application of crew ratios multiplied against unit equipped aircraft. It is a billet in which an aeronautically designated officer is required to participate as a crew member in the operation of an aircraft or its weapons systems in support of specific aviation operational missions. Such operational missions include, but are not limited to, Tactical Air, ASW, SAR, Fleet Support, Training, Test and Evaluation, Logistic or Staff Support. In each instance, incumbents of operational flying billets are required to maintain basic flying skills and to fly frequently and regularly in the performance of their assigned duties. Such flying is considered operational flying as defined in paragraph 1001 of OPNAVINST 3710.7 series. (3) 2 - Operational Flying. This category billet (Designator s 13X2, 15X2, 1712, 1802, 2102, and 2302) require an aeronautically designated officer to fly frequently and regularly in the performance of the assigned duties, but the requirement is not derived from the application of crew ratios against unit equipped aircraft. Designated billets involve crew member flight duties which vary from complete aircraft/weapons system utilization to those less demanding in airborne duties and frequency of flight. Such operational missions include, but are not limited to, pertinent flight functions involving the exercise of Command and Control of Aircraft, Mission Support, Flight Safety, Aircrew Evaluation, Operational Readiness, Maintenance Programs and Weapons Test Evaluation. Such flying is considered operational flying as defined in paragraph 1001 of OPNAVINST 3710.7 series. 3. Designator s The officer designator codes are four-digit numbers used to group officers by categories for personnel accounting and administrative purposes and to identify the status of officers. These codes identify, through the first three digits, the categories in which officers are appointed and/or designated and, through the fourth digit, the status of the officers within the various categories. A listing by the first three digits of the officer designator codes and their description and the translation of the fourth digit are included in the following section. 4. As indicated in the following section, are assigned by the CNO to represent the special interests and provide management advice for the respective specialty categories. Specific responsibilities are assigned in OPNAVINST 1210.2 series. 5. Recommendations to Establish, Disestablish, or Revise Designators a. Commands recommending establishing, deleting or revising codes within the designator structure should include the appropriate information as follows: (1) Recommendations to establish a designator code must include: (a) Recommended code number and description (b) Background - Innovations involved - Problem areas (current and future) (c) Training and education - Current - Proposed - Savings - if any - Long range implications (d) Funding implications - New costs - Programmed funds/billets A - 3

(e) structure - Before change, number and grade spread - After change, number and grade spread (f) Promotion (g) Distribution - NOBC/AQD/SSP code implications (h) Reserve implications (i) Personnel affected (j) Advantages (k) Disadvantages (l) Recommendations (m) Point of contact (include telephone (both commercial and DSN) number, fax number, and e-mail address) (2) Recommendations to disestablish a designator code must include: (a) number and title (b) Background (reason for deletion) (c) Training and education - Necessary retraining - Savings - if any - Long range implications (d) structure - Before change, number and grade spread - Information on how to recode personnel presently coded with this designator (include effective dates) (e) Personnel affected (include inventory depletion) (f) Information requested in paragraphs 5a(1)(h) and (j) through (m) (3) Recommendations to revise a designator code must include: (a) Current code number and title (b) Proposed recoding, retitling and/or rewording of current designator (c) Justification for proposed revision (d) Information, as applicable, requested in paragraphs 5a(1)(c) through (m) b. Submit all recommendations according to the procedures outlined in the introduction of this manual. Include BUPERS () as community managers for the designators in the "via addressees". A - 4
