I chose what is today 42A, HR Specialist. Because of a change in MTOE while I was attending BCT and AIT, I was reclassed, involuntarily, immediately on returning to my unit.<br /><br />It's the best job I never chose.Response by 1SG Private RallyPoint Member made Oct 21 at 2014 9:48 PM2014-10-21T21:48:28-04:002014-10-21T21:48:28-04:002014-10-21T21:27:37-04:00
