I&#39;ve seen some 88Ms drive when needed but mainly doing PMCS.

So 9 hours. But the training schedule hours out the window when mission dictates. <br /><br />As an 88M it depends on what type of unit you are assigned to as to the frequency with which you drive, perform maintenance, or work on basic soldiering skills. And as for the 8 hours, that&#39;s just on paper.

When I was on NTC our days were about 12 hours during rotations. A transportation Company has a different tempo compared to a FSC. The bottom line is the job is great I did it on Active and on the reserves.

In the 82nd since we trained M-F and often weekends, our non fiels weekends were normally devoted to Maintenance, repair and prep for the next week.

From 0730 to 0900 you&#39;ll be released for breakfast/shit/shower /shave. from 0900 to 1130 its daily operations or whatever. Lunch from 1130 to 1300. From 1300 to 1700 it&#39;s more motor pool work and tying up loose ends. Usually get off around 1700. <br /><br />Things change if you have barracks/battalion staff duty. That&#39;s a whole day but usually the next day is off.

I was assigned to an armor brigade in Germany driving a fuel truck. afterwards I was assigned to engineer brigade in Ft Devans MA. that was a junk job as I had gotten my e5 and they needed a fuel driver not an NCO. I ended up getting a bus license from the civilian motor pool and that got me out of sitting around 8 hrs a day SGT Dave Unangst Sat, 06 Apr 2024 18:15:18 -0400 2024-04-06T18:15:18-04:00 Response by SPC Toni Hogue made Apr 8 at 2024 9:55 AM https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/88m-work-hours?n=8721701&urlhash=8721701 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I. Not sure about today&#39;s Army, but when I was in if we were not in the field 10hrs, if we were in the field 18hrs with 6hr sleep. We had most weekend off.
