Clearances aren't granted by Navy rate - they're granted on a "need to know" basis, or the command that they serve under. For example, all Nuclear Submarine crews are required to have and maintain a Secret clearance, from the cooks to the CO.
Unless your particular assignment requires it, clearances aren't automatically granted. All personnel go through some type of Background Investigation based on their ultimate duty station, and some rates (for example, Crypto and Intel) of course require clearances by their very nature. However, it's their assignment that determines the level of clearance, not the rate. Even a Crypto tech whose assignment doesn't require it won't be granted a clearance.
"Need to Know" is the phrase for all clearances - if you don't need to know, you don't rate a clearance. It's been that way since WWII.

What are the infantry combat trained jobs in US Navy that dont require security clearance?
Some of the infantry combat trained jobs in the US Navy that don't typically require security clearance include Gunner's Mate (GM), Boatswain's Mate (BM), and Hull Maintenance Technician (HT). These jobs focus on weapon systems, small arms, shipboard operations, and maintenance tasks. However, it's important to note that security clearance requirements can vary based on specific assignments and roles within these job specialties.
Which federal agencies require a top secret clearance?
It all depends on your job. I can't say much about it but for example in the Navy all CT jobs will require a top secret clearence. Quite a few agencies require a TS clearance depending on your job function inside that agency. The standard alphabet soup of FBI, CIA, NSA, DOD, State Department and numerous other agencies no one will ever hear about. If you go to clearancejobs.com it will give some idea. A lot of civilian companies also require them when they manufacture sensitive equipment for the government.
Can bankruptcy hinder you in joining the navy reserves?
Bankruptcy won't hinder your enlistment, but COULD limit what you do in the Navy, since credit history is one of the elements of security clearance investigations. How long ago the bankruptcy was filed, and current financial responsibility can improve your chances of at least a Secret clearance, needed for many Navy jobs.

Can a green card holder serving as US Navy Hospital Corpsman become a battlefield corpsman to assist the marines?
Yes and no - while a Navy Corpsman is a Corpsman regardless of status, the problem you'd face is with any Security Clearance. FMF and Force Recon members typically hold Secret or Top Secret clearances, and they don't typically authorize those for foreign nationals, only U.S. citizens.
Can you be a Navy civilian without ever being in the military?
If you mean can you work for the Navy Department as a Government Civil Servant, or even a non-government employee, without any prior Navy or other military service, then the answer is Yes, most definitely. The Navy employs many civilians in various roles all over the globe. However, having said that, prior Naval or military service is preferable and helpful when seeking such employment, because virtually all Naval rates require a security clearance of some type. Once you've been cleared as part of military service, that Background Investigation stays with you for the rest of your life. Subsequent updates via update investigations augment previous BI data if or when necessary.
