Mike1993 I know a ton of inland tugs that Dont require an nmc. In fact I was the only deckhand at my company that had one at one point. TWIC and you were all good. ---

I was initially denied for charges I won’t specify(pm me if you’d like). A letter from a licensed counselor as well as a couple character references and I was able to receive my MMC. The coast guard issued me what was called a “Proof of Current”. [Previous page](https://forum.gcaptain.com/t/mmc-applicant-with-a-few-misdemeanor-convictions-including-simple-assault/47809.md?page=1)
