Seaman Apprentice Seaman Apprentice is the second lowest enlisted rank in the U . S . Navy and U . S . Coast Guard , just above Seaman Recruit and below Seaman ; this rank was formerly known as Seaman Second Class . The actual title for an E - 2 in the U . S . Navy varies based on the community to which the sailor belongs . Likewise , the color of their group rate marks also depends on their community . No stripes are worn on the working uniforms - coveralls or utilities . In October 2005 , the Dental Technician rating was merged with the Hospital Corpsman rating , eliminating the Dentalman Apprentice title . Those who once held the rank of Dentalman Apprentice have instead become Hospitalman Apprentices . Sailors who have completed the requirements to be assigned a rating and have been accepted by the Bureau of Naval Personnel as holding that rating ( a process called " striking " ) are called Designated Strikers , and are called by their full rate and rating in formal communications ( i . e . , Machinist ' s Mate Fireman Apprentice , as opposed to simply Fireman Apprentice ) , though the rating is often left off in informal communication . Those who have not officially been assigned to a rating are officially referred to as " Undesignated " or " Non - rates . "
