Yes. Anyone holding a rating is also eligible for the credit recommended in the general rate exhibit. The six general rates are Airman, Constructionman, Dentalman, Fireman, Hospitalman, and Seaman. The item Career Pattern section in the rating exhibit will indicate the general rate the individual held before progressing to the rating. The credit recommended for the general rate should be considered in conjunction with the credit recommendation for the rating.
