Picture

Since the article is centered on what a damage controlman is/does, shouldn't a picture of some damage controlman in action be the profile photo instead of just a high-ranking enlisted damage controlman in whites at ground zero? I'd be glad to upload a few personal ones.136.160.157.190 (talk) 20:43, 25 March 2008 (UTC) Ex-DCman 1546EST-25mar08[reply]

Done. I added a picture of DC's welding. Medicjm (talk) 08:56, 9 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Rating History

This is a real weak article. For the US Navy, Damage controlman as a rating has not consistently existed, It has undergone periods of disestablishment. That information should get added. I write and think of this from the United States Navy perspective= what about other larger Nation's navies? Wfoj3 (talk) 22:34, 4 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
