EAWS Test Prep Flashcards

What is EAWS?

The Enlisted Aviation Warfare Specialist (EAWS) insignia is a military badge of the United States Navy; it specifically recognizes professional aviation skills and service within the Navy. The EAWS insignia is considered to be one of three warfare badges open to personnel, the others being the Enlisted Submarine Warfare Badge and the Enlisted Surface Warfare Specialist Badge.

The insignia is not a requirement for those seeking continued advancement in the Navy but there are penalties for those not earning the insignia within three years as a Petty Officer Second Class. Without the insignia, sailors may be subject to being ineligible for advancement in addition to restrictions on assignments.

Earning your EAWS Certification

Earning the EAWS designation begins with the Enlisted Aviation Personal Qualification Standards, or PQS. There are two PQS for the EAWS the first being the Common Core which provide the foundation of a sailor’s knowledge and covers tasks and policies.

The second PQS is made up of various training operations and practical experience.

The Enlisted Aviation usually takes a year but it can be completed quicker with hard work and effort. Successful completion of the Enlisted Aviation PQS requires sailors to pass a written and an oral exam. When it comes to drilling down and memorizing key information, for either of these exams, then Brainscape makes a near perfect study companion.
