i have a few questions about the job of an os. first question is does the os rating deal with air traffic controll? is there an air traffic controll rating in the coast guard or would an os be the closest thing? also what are the benefits of striking instead of going to a school? thanks in advance for the replys guys.

-This may be your best bet.
-Click the link then look at the "AC" rate.
