The US Navy's NEETS course manuals are fairly easy to find online, and are high quality materials. Compared to the other services, the US Navy electronics techs are less specialized in one area, so they need broad skills. I'm guessing because you can only put so many people on a ship?

One source of their materials:

Militaries probably also need broad skills redundancy among their people, for obvious reasons.

I'm saying the Navy Electronics techs are less specialized than the Army or Air Force.

Maybe because such specialists are harder to replace out on the ocean during hostilities, so they need more skill redundancy among ship crew.

Right...that you can only fit so many people on a ship :)
