March 8, 2008 By admin

One of the advantages in working in the Navy as a Photographic Technician is the world is your oyster. Literally anywhere that the Navy is located at may be a potential duty station for you, if you choose to work in the Photography Navy Technician field. Hawaii, Japan, Iceland, Italy, anyplace that the United States Navy, and in some cases the Marine Corps, are stationed may be an assignment if you become a Navy Photographic technician. It does not matter if your interest is in writing, illustration, design or photography itself, this area of Navy enlisted jobs is growing and has been looked at as an elite group for a long time.

You may be called to use state of the Art photography equipment to create graphics, or design a layout for a specific news conference. Perhaps you will be responsible for setting up and creating a Pentagon briefing with graphics and materials. You may have any number of different assignments, sometimes several in the period of day’s weeks or months. As part of the Navy Photographic occupational specialty, you may be assigned to:
