PIC is most certainly required to stand a cargo watch as an officer on a tanker.

But a license isn’t required, just a pic.
Yes. Which is an endorsement on your MMC. The question was what endorsements? Not what licenses.
Also: VSO, FCC Radio Operator License, Basic and Advanced Fire Fighting, Lifeboatman, Radar Certificate, ECDIS, Fast Rescue Boat. DPO…Lots of different certs/licenses/endorsements. Some only take a week to get, some years. But really you can’t have a “License” without all that crap.
Edit: Forgot: MedCare Provider, and Medical PIC

I think the confusion is coming from where you said they were written on the back of your licenses. So there for making us think we would have to have a licenses.
Could be not reading all that correctly though.

That isn’t relevant to this conversation. We are talking about type specific endorsements other than towing. There is no passenger endorsement, no tanker endorsement, no ro-ro endorsement, no container endorsement, and no OSV endorsement. There is an STCW high speed craft endorsement but no US version that I am aware of.

There are no such things as licenses anymore, just “officer endorsements”.

[QUOTE=Sweat-n-Grease;90214]Commercial Flying has been my other career, along with sailing. To fly with the Airlines you need, in addition to the FAA “Commercial, Multi-Engine, Instrument Certificate,” another Certificate (aviation talk for license) called the “Airline Transport Pilot Certificate,” or ATP, plus be “Type Rated” in the aircraft.you fly. You may Google “ATP” and “Type Rating” for more info. Steamer, a forum member, has the ATP and was Type Rated to fly a certain aircraft in the Air Cargo business. Should he see this post I’m sure he can further info. Steamer, like me, also sailed Chief Engineer in the US Merchant Marine. I use to pilot commercially in General Aviation and other non Airline/Cargo aviation industries, An Air Line Pilot and an Air Cargo Pilot can not jump from one aircraft to another without first being Type Rated in the aircraft he/she is to fly. I’m not all too sure about the pay differences between the Air Lines and Air Cargo. I suspect the old adage applies, it depends (upon what you fly and the company you fly for).[/QUOTE]
Do I get a sticker? 
You need a radar observer endorsement to operate vessels equipped with radar. Ha! But I knew what you meant. You’re correct we don’t get “checked-off” for specific vessel types. But I figured pointing out the patchwork of relevant certifications one might need would be useful.
Is this a serious question?
[QUOTE=Traitor Yankee;90276]Is this a serious question?[/QUOTE]
Yes, it is. You are the only person who has responded to it with sarcasm.
My colleague (and one that I report to) is a Scot and also a former sailing marine engineer. In the early part of his career, he worked on the ARCADIA, a P&O liner that was on the UK to Australia run, among others. He still goes on about how much tail that he got. Of course this was back in the 70s.
[QUOTE=Capt. Phoenix;90251]…There is an STCW high speed craft endorsement but no US version that I am aware of.[/QUOTE]
HSC type ratings are not STCW endorsements. The term “high speed craft” does not appear anywhere in STCW (it’s in the HSC Code). With the combined MMC, the type-rating goes on the officer endorsement (license) page, not the STCW page. Before the MMC when licenses and STCW were separate documents, it went on the license, not the STCW. An officer working on a HSC craft that operates where STCW doesn’t apply (e.g. the Foxwoods casino HSC that went from Manhattan to Connecticut) still needs a type rating.
[QUOTE=Capt. Phoenix;90251]…There are no such things as licenses anymore, just “officer endorsements”. [/QUOTE]
Yes, and no. The term license is still used in the U.S. Code, from which the Coast Guard’s authority to issue them derives. That authority is maintained by the definition of “officer endorsement” in 46 CFR 10.107, “…[t[he officer endorsement serves as the license and/or certificate of registry under 46 U.S.C. subtitle II part E.”
I have a HSC type rating on my stcw (international page) as well as the domestic page. Again, it seems like there is no standard to what gets written on the licenses or the people issuing them don’t understand the nuances. Most the time it feels like they don’t even read the paper work for what is being issued. My last upgrade I did an upgrade/renew and they just processed the RIG and sent me the stickers even though there weren’t enough pages in my MMC.

Of course, the Scots are not known to tell tails ~
