Need advice and opinions from those who served

Thanks for the link.

This is the symbol that was between the bars and stripes.



Aviation support tech is what this insignia is.

Two chevrons below is a petty officer 2nd class

Three chevrons below is a petty officer first class

Did they look like this?



I'd have to try to figure out the stripes. I might have a photo somewhere of my dad in his Navy uniform. Maybe I can see it in the picture.
