Instruction encompasses classroom and underway delivery in riverine and coastal environments during day and night operations, user-level preventive and corrective maintenance per military and original equipment manufacturer technical manuals, crew position-specific qualification testing, remedial training, Range Safety Officer and Line Coach duties during live-fire evolutions, and incident reporting.
All contractor personnel must be U.S. citizens, fluent in English, proficient with Microsoft Office, capable of passing federal background checks, and able to obtain DoD Common Access Cards and SECRET security clearances.
