PREFACE
Warfare Qualified Sailors are an essential element of our Navy’s Operational Primacy. The
objective of the Seabee Combat Warfare (SCW) Specialist Program is to provide the candidate
an introduction into the processes and topics necessary to support the warfighting requirements
of our Navy. This personnel warfare qualification standard will focus on mission effectiveness,
combat readiness, and survivability as well as introducing an overall understanding of how an
individual unit’s mission fits into and supports naval doctrine and its objectives. Experience
shows it is essential that every warrior in our Navy be totally familiar with the mission of their
command and be able to apply this knowledge to support the successful execution of the
command’s current and future missions.

INTRODUCTION
PQS PROGRAM
This PQS program is a qualification system for officers and enlisted personnel where
certification of a minimum level of competency is required prior to qualifying to perform specific
duties. A PQS is a compilation of the minimum knowledge and skills that an individual must
demonstrate in order to qualify to stand watches or perform other specific routine duties
necessary for the safety, security or proper operation of a ship, aircraft or support system. The
objective of PQS is to standardize and facilitate these qualifications.
CANCELLATION
None.
APPLICABILITY
This PQS is applicable to all personnel serving in Naval Construction Regiment units, which are
authorized to grant Seabee Combat Warfare designations IAW OPNAVINST 1410.1 (Series).
MODEL MANAGER
The Model Manager Command manages a specific PQS manual. This includes overseeing the
process of monitoring and updating assigned PQS manuals from the standpoint of technical content
and relevance within the community.
QUALIFIER
The PQS Qualifier is designated in writing by the Commanding Officer to sign off individual
watchstations. Qualifiers will normally be E-6 or above and, as a minimum, must have
completed the PQS they are authorized to sign off. The names of designated Qualifiers should
be made known to all members of the unit or department. The means of maintaining this listing
is at the discretion of individual commands. For more information on the duties and
responsibilities of PQS Qualifiers, see the PQS Unit Coordinator’s Guide.

INTRODUCTION (CONT’D)
CONTENTS
PQS is divided into three sections. The 100 Section (Fundamentals) contains the fundamental
knowledge from technical manuals and other texts necessary to satisfactorily understand the
watchstation/workstation duties. The 200 Section (Systems/Mission Areas) is designed to
acquaint you with the systems you will be required to operate at your watchstation/workstation.
The 300 Section (Watchstations) lists the tasks you will be required to satisfactorily perform in
order to achieve final PQS qualification for a particular watchstation/workstation. All three
sections may not apply to this PQS, but where applicable, detailed explanations are provided at
the front of each section.
REFERENCES
The references used during the writing of this PQS package were the latest available to the
workshop, however, the most current references available should be used when qualifying with
this standard.
NOTES
Classified references may be used in the development of PQS. If such references are used, do
not make notes in this book as answers to questions in this standard may be classified.
TRAINEE
Your supervisor will tell you which watchstations/workstations you are to complete and in what
order. Before getting started, turn to the 300 Section first and find your watchstation/workstation.
This will tell you what you should do before starting your watchstation/workstation tasks. You
may be required to complete another PQS, a school, or other watchstations/workstations within
this package. It will also tell you which fundamentals and/or systems from this package you
must complete prior to qualification at your watchstation/workstation. If you have any questions
or are unable to locate references, contact your supervisor or qualifier. Good luck!
PQS FEEDBACK REPORTS
This PQS was developed using information available at the time of writing. When equipment
and requirements change, the PQS needs to be revised. The only way the PQS Development
Group knows of these changes is by you, the user, telling us either in a letter or via the
Feedback Report contained in the back of this book. You can tell us of new systems and
requirements, or of errors you find.

INTRODUCTION TO FUNDAMENTALS
100.1
INTRODUCTION
This PQS begins with a Fundamentals section covering the basic knowledge and
principles needed to understand the equipment or duties to be studied. Normally, you
would have acquired the knowledge required in the Fundamentals section during the
school phase of your training. If you have not been to school or if you need a
refresher, the references listed at the beginning of each fundamental will aid you in a
self-study program. All references cited for study are selected according to their
credibility and availability.
100.2
HOW TO COMPLETE
The fundamentals you will have to complete are listed in the watchstation (300
section) for each watchstation. You should complete all required fundamentals before
starting the systems and watchstation portions of this PQS, since knowledge gained
from fundamentals will aid you in understanding the systems and your watchstation
tasks. When you feel you have a complete understanding of one fundamental or
more, contact your Qualifier. If you are attempting initial qualification, your Qualifier
will expect you to satisfactorily answer all line items in the fundamentals. If you are
requalifying or have completed the appropriate schools, your Qualifier may require
you to answer representative line items to determine if you have retained the
necessary knowledge for your watchstation. If your command requires an oral board
or written examination for final qualification, you may be asked any questions from the
fundamentals required for your watchstation.

INTRODUCTION TO WATCHSTATIONS
INTRODUCTION
The Watchstation section of your PQS is where you get a chance to demonstrate to
your Qualifier that you can put the knowledge you have gained in the previous
sections to use. It allows you to practice the tasks required for your watchstation and
to handle abnormal conditions and emergencies. Before starting your assigned tasks,
you must complete the prerequisites that pertain to the performance of that particular
task. Satisfactory completion of all prerequisites is required prior to achievement of
final watchstation qualification.
300.2
FORMAT
Each watchstation in this section contains:

A FINAL QUALIFICATION PAGE, which is used to obtain the required
signatures for approval and recording of Final Qualification.

PREREQUISITES, which are items that must be certified completed before
you can begin qualification for a particular watchstation. Prerequisites may
include schools, watchstation qualifications from other PQS books, and
fundamentals, systems/mission areas, or watchstation qualifications from this
book. Prior to signing off each prerequisite line item, the Qualifier must verify
completion from existing records. Record the date of actual completion, not the
sign-off date.

WATCHSTATION Performance, which is the practical factors portion of your
qualification. The performance is broken down as follows:
Tasks (routine operating tasks that are performed frequently)
Infrequent Tasks
Abnormal Conditions
Emergencies
Training Watches
If there are multiple watchstations, a QUALIFICATION PROGRESS SUMMARY will
appear at the end of the Standard.

The PQS deliberately makes no attempt to specify the procedures to be used to
complete a task or control or correct a casualty. The only proper sources of this
information are the technical manuals, Engineering Operational Sequencing System
(EOSS), Naval Air Training and Operating Procedures Standardization (NATOPS) or
other policy-making documents prepared for a specific installation or a piece of
equipment. Additionally, the level of accuracy required of a trainee may vary from
school to school, ship to ship, and squadron to squadron based upon such factors as
mission requirements. Thus, proficiency may be confirmed only through demonstrated
performance at a level of competency sufficient to satisfy the Commanding Officer.
300.4
DISCUSSION ITEMS
Though actual performance of evolutions is always preferable to observation or
discussion, some items listed in each watchstation may be too hazardous or time
consuming to perform or simulate. Therefore, you may be required to discuss such
items with your Qualifier.
300.5
NUMBERING
Each Final Qualification is assigned both a watchstation number and a NAVEDTRA
Final Qualification number. The NAVEDTRA number is to be used for recording
qualifications in service and training records.
300.6
HOW TO COMPLETE
After completing the required prerequisites applicable to a particular task, you may
perform the task under the supervision of a qualified watchstander. If you satisfactorily
perform the task and can explain each step, your Qualifier will sign you off for that
task. You may then be required to stand a watch or a number of watches to earn
qualification. There are two levels of supervision for this:


Under Instruction: You will perform the duties and tasks of the watchstation under
the direct supervision of a qualified watchstander or supervisor. This is intended
to be a one-on-one training situation.
Under qualified supervision: You will perform the duties and tasks of the
watchstation with minor guidance from a qualified watchstander or supervisor.
This is intended to allow you to develop proficiency in and operational
environment with minimal oversight or have a supervisor close at hand if needed.
After all line items have been completed, your Qualifier will verify Final Qualification
by signing and dating the Final Qualification pages.

NAVEDTRA 43904-6A
SEABEE COMBAT WARFARE, UNIT SPECIFIC FOR NCR
NAME
RATE/RANK
This page is to be used as a record of satisfactory completion of designated sections of the
Personnel Qualification Standard (PQS). Only specified supervisors may signify completion of
applicable sections either by written or oral examination, or by observation of performance. The
examination or checkout need not cover every item; however, a sufficient number should be
covered to demonstrate the examinee’s knowledge. Should supervisors give away their
signatures, unnecessary difficulties can be expected in future routine operations.
This qualification section is to be kept in the individual’s training jacket.
The trainee has completed all PQS requirements for this watchstation. Recommend designation
as a qualified SEABEE COMBAT WARFARE SPECIALIST, UNIT SPECIFIC FOR NCR
(NAVEDTRA 43904-6A).
