Navy Military Mess Management Careers

June 25, 2008 By admin

The Navy mess management is the job rating that deals with helping to feed and prepare meals for the personnel in the Navy.

You may work serving guests for a special Navy dinner on shore. The rule of thumb for a Navy Mess specialist is that there is no ready rule of thumb. Literally you may work in any situation in the Navy that involves serving food for different groups of people, your duty station can be any location that has Navy personnel.

You may be tasked to; Prepare a variety of meals and arrange food for all different groups, and operate dining facilities and kitchens and various galleys, and working to manage and operate kitchen and living quarters on board ship, submarine or shore station. You will have a lot of different training and job experiences working in Mess specialist in the Navy. You will work to fix food from 5 to large groups up to several thousand. You will work in different situations and be taught food preservation, nutrition, dining and even how to manage scheduling entertainment management in certain situations.
