    I have a group

    His sub rating is ST then TC

    I know TC is Torpedo Coxwain

    Is ST seaman Torpedoman?

    I would have thought becoming Coxwain he would have progressed through other Torpedo ranks?

    Regards

    Hello James,

    From King’s Regulations, HM Naval Service, Vol. I, Articles, 1943:

    ST = Seaman Torpedoman

    TC = Torpedo Coxswain
