I looked up and saw that the realignment of EN and MM was effective 1 May for Active duty and will take effect 1 October for Reservists and that Reservists are only eligible for MM, so that is probably why you have EN/MM, but he will have one or the other of the ratings depending on the needs of the Navy.

Thank you for the information. I sent him a calling card today. I haven't heard anything so I'll assume no news is good news!

EN and MM are two different ratings, but both have "A" School in GL. There are no groups for just loved ones of Engineman (EN), but you may find some in Engineers, Snipe Moms, and Snipe Moms(enginers). The group for Machinist Mate (MM) is Machinest Mates and check out the previously mentioned groups. You can also check out the Training Support Center (TSC) Great Lakes Facebook Page. The Rating Information Card for EN can be found at https://www.cool.navy.mil/enlisted/rating_info_cards/en.pdf and the one for MM can be found at https://www.cool.navy.mil/enlisted/rating_info_cards/mm.pdf. You will be able to enjoy extra time with your Sailor following PIR. (See PIR Day and Liberty During PIR Weekend.)
