Re: Pre-Marshall motivational video
Do you work with radio or something given your signature line?

I was a communications IT in the Navy. It was just a fun saying we had, you were either a freq(comms) or a geek(network).McLeansvilleAppFan wrote: ↑Sat Sep 19, 2020 1:11 pmDo you work with radio or something given your signature line?

Re: Pre-Marshall motivational video
The current Navy Rate IT came to exist in 1997. Prior to that there was RM(Radiomen) and DP(Data Processing Technician). So at that point the Freqs(RM's) and Geeks(DP's) were one in the same. But the phrase probably came from the show.McLeansvilleAppFan wrote: ↑Sat Sep 19, 2020 4:29 pmI wonder which came first, the Navy version of freq and geeks or Freaks and Geeks the TV show from 1999.NavyApp wrote: ↑Sat Sep 19, 2020 3:12 pmI was a communications IT in the Navy.

Re: Pre-Marshall motivational video
The American Radio Association is now an affiliate of the ILWU but until the merger around 2008 they were the smallest union in the AFL-CIO by a good margin. The ARA seems to represent both RM and DP types at this point.
The Horseshoer's Union was another very small union but they changed their name and moved beyond horseshoeing a few years ago.
