The 68T are usually food inspectors or even worse, population control.

She'll take them to the " clinic" on posts. She constantly gets soldiers who want to become " animal care specialist " 68T. My good friend (someone I consider family) is still in as a career counselor. I'm going to tell you now 68 T wont be like working in a vet clinic. Rather, they incentivize people already in the MOS to re up and stay. So, if you do not have That MOS in your contract, you will not get to do it, not even as a reenlistment option.

The only way somebody gets into the dog handler MOS is either through MPs or EOD and gets it as a specialty or if they have some sort of background that gets them recruited to work in that MOS. His words “That fuckin guy” “Lying Piece a Shit”. Don’t get sold a dream.Ģnd edit: I spoke with a dude who is currently a US Army E-6 who is on recruiting duty. find out exactly what you will be doing on a day to day basis in your chosen MOS. However, his job was to listen to those fuel reports in a dark room and type out what was said FOR YEARS. Now that intel may have been valuable to something at some point, I’m not disputing it. Things like amounts of fuel dispensed into tanker trucks going to various places. He spent YEARS listening to recorded radio transmissions of mundane shitte, translating it to English. I personally know someone who was a linguist/interrogator. Only to find out that they will typing or looking at pieces of paper for discrepancies between two sets of numbers. Many people join MI thinking they’re going to be doing some interesting, intelligence gathering or junior G-Man type work. The lower ranks will NOT be doing the glamorous part of that job (if there is one). Do you know EXACTLY what a 42A does at each rank? You need to find this out. You will not be able to change your MOS unless you are up to re-enlist, are less than an E-6 in rank, have a high enough Line score for the new MOS and the Army needs that new MOS at the time when you are trying to become it. He knows that once you get on that bus to Basic, he will never see your ass again, ever.

But June 2020 lists for E-4 and below, they aren't willing to let anyone out of 42A - but 68T was taking people in.įind a different recruiter. July 2020 lists that E-4 and below, they are willing to let people out of 42A - but 68T isn't taking anyone in. So for your specific situation of 42A and 68T. But it can only be done during your "reenlistment window" near the end of your contract. it is not an easy process but people regularly reclass. There are a fair number of factors, but bottom line up front. Vice versa though, if you are in an overstrength MOS and trying to go to and understrength MOS, it is much easier. So if you are in an understrength MOS and you are trying to go into an overstrength MOS, it just won't happen. They break things out by skill levels and every month they come out with a Yes/No list about whether they are accepting people or letting people go.

Currently 68T is not a packet MOS, which means that you would need to reenlist to reclass. Packet MOS's generally mean that they don't care what your MOS is right now (whether they are overstrength or understrength), they will evaluate your qualifications and make a decision on whether you are a skilled person to bring in. There are packet MOS's and reclassification through reenlistment. There are two ways to change your MOS in the Army.
