A deck ape is the term used [in the Navy] for an undesignated seaman, NOT a Boatswain's Mate. Boatswain's Mate is an actual RATE what other branches call an MOS (Military Occupational Specialty). Undesignated seamen are the non rated losers E-3 and below that work for the Boatswain's Mates. I do feel the need that Boatswain's Mates do start off as Deck apes who train [on the job], since their is no "A" School for their rate. Why would those imbeciles need a school? You don't need a class for paint chipping. So a Boatswain's Mate is a former deck ape on a [power trip].
