Its Boatswain's Mate. Pronounced bosen's mate 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boatswain's_Mate_(US_Navy)
a Bosen or Boatswain is different:
Ship's Boatswain
In the U.S. Navy the title Boatswain is reserved for the Ship's Boatswain, an officer who assists the First Lieutenant by supervising the deck force in the execution of major seamanship functions and the maintenance of topside gear.
There is also the FLight Deck Boatswain or Flight Deck Boats.
Same thing only on the Flight Deck of Aircraft Carriers or Large Amphibs.
