Is the requirements for Tankerman PIC a special USGC designation, only applicable for ATBs and J.A. trade tankers?

Would the STCW eqv. be; IMO Model Course 1.01, 1.02, 1.03?  
Which covers regulations in STCW 78 including amendments, table A-V/1-1-1, A-V/1-1-2 and A-V/1-1-3.  
Refr: [Tankerman - Western Norway University of Applied Sciences](https://www.hvl.no/en/studies-at-hvl/study-programmes/training-for-oil-chemical-tanker-cargo-operations/)

Or just IMO Model Course 102:

So were the maritime advisors “deep state” whatever the hell deep state consists of? Deep State reminds me of Woke, DEI, Me Too and the War on Christmas which are just distractions. Keep 'em distracted by silly crap while you pick their pocket and tank the economy.

Trump uses that to mean anyone in government who’s loyal to the country and it’s ideals as opposed to him personally.

I use the term “deep state” to mean the entrenched bureaucracy which is primarily looking out for itself.

These are folks who have been feeding at the public trough longterm with very little accountability. People who think that they are the knowledgeable elites and that government needs to be bigger and more of an intrusive “nanny state” to save the little people from themselves.

Yeah, the USCG just started trying to investigate sexual assault. What’s going to happen to that effort? There are times when I feel unsafe everyday in the maritime industry.

Is that newspeak for unqualified sycophants and extremist henchmen?  
Joseph Goebbels would be proud of the current gang of unfit minions.

That which you and your fellow cult members describe as “drivel” is known by less intellectually challenged folk as “quantitative observation”, it is a research method that involves observation and analysis of data about people, actions, events, and their results.

It is daily more obvious to those who will see, where the continuous layering of insult upon insult to our economy and society by this cult of power seeking sycophants of an infantile sociopath is leading the nation.
