Need some more indepth information on what a technician is. -- Q 04:49, 20 Mar 2005 (EST)

Also, found the following as a HTML comment - this might better be placed here, where comments are actually expected:

needs references to petty officer / specialist grades -- all technicians are petty officers (navy) or specialists (army)
