The acronym "SR" stands for Seaman Recruit, the lowest rank in the Navy. It is given to those who first enlist and attend Basic Training (Boot Camp).<br><br>In today's modern Navy, for most who graduate BT, they're automatically promoted to Seaman Apprentice or Seaman. These 3 ranks (E-1 through E-3) are the lowest ranks under Non-Commissioned Officers (Petty Officers).<br><br>It is different also depending on the career path of the individual - if the person is going into Aviation, it's AR, for Engineering rates (Machinists, etc.,) it's Fireman Recruit (FR).<br>
