In the middle of the 18th century (c.1757) the Royal Navy of the United Kingdom used the term Landman.
This referred to a seaman with less than a year's experience at sea.
After a year, the Landman was usually promoted to the rank of Ordinary Seaman.
Most were acquired by impressment (a common method of recruitment from c.1700-1815).
Landmen were usually between the ages of 16 and 35.
While seasoned sailors (who started as Ordinary Seamen) could be impressed up to the ages of 50 to 55 depending on need.
In 1853 the practice of impressment ended after the passing of the Continuous Service Act.
The rank's title was changed to Apprentice Seaman.
The term Landman evolved into a more formal rating for a seaman assigned to unskilled manual labor.
Landsman was the lowest rank of the United States Navy in the 19th and early 20th centuries.
It was given to new recruits with little or no experience at sea.
Landsmen performed basic unskilled work aboard ship.
A Landsman who gained three years of experience or re-enlisted could be promoted to Ordinary Seaman.
The rank existed from 1838 to 1921.

The term Ordinary seaman was used in the Royal Navy in the middle of the 18th century.
The term was used to refer to a seaman with between one and two years' experience at sea.
They showed enough seamanship to be so rated by their captain.
A seaman with less than a year's experience was referred to as a landman.
A sailor with more than two years' experience was referred to as an able seaman.
Later, the term was formalized as a rating for the lowest normal grade of seaman.
They are not trained in any special task.
They are required to work at physically hard tasks of great variety.
One needs an Ordinary Seaman Certificate to obtain work.
One can become an able seaman as a promotion from this position.
Ordinary seaman was the second-lowest rank of the 19th century United States Navy.
It ranked above landsman and below seaman.
Promotion from landsman to ordinary seaman required three years of experience or re-enlistment.
An ordinary seaman who gained six years of experience and knew the name and use of every line in the ship's rigging, could be promoted to seaman.
An ordinary seaman's duties aboard ship included "handling and splicing lines, and working aloft on the lower mast stages and yards."
The rank existed from 1797 to 1917, when it was renamed "seaman second class".
Seaman second class was later changed to the modern-day rank of seaman apprentice.
The related ranks of ordinary seaman second class and ordinary seaman, engineer's force, existed in 1876–1885 and 1871–1883, respectively.
The term ordinary seaman is currently used in the Royal Canadian Navy and Irish Naval Forces (who inherited the military ranking structure from the previous generation of Royal Navy, Army, and Air Force ranks.)
