Does Reserve PSYOP support spec ops or exclusive to conventional?

Just came off active duty and looking to get into a PSYOP unit in reserves but cannot find solid information as to whether or not I'd get to do "sexy hooah" things with Reserve PSYOP. Any info is appreciated, thank you!

USACAPOC is not a SOF unit. They may work with SOF occasionally, in the event they and a SOF element are in the same area and they desire to work together.

I second SFC Carroll. For the most part, no. Reserve mission is much different. Still an immense amount of opportunity if you are profitable (airborne, deployments under your belt, and languages). You can get pulled for many deployments if you’re needed. Your best bet is to stay high speed and go to DLI for a Tier IV language if you haven’t already (I’ll be going for Chinese Mandarin).

I worked in a remote Psychological Operations and we were part of the SOC at Bragg. We supported all Spec Ops in our TOR and assisted sister concerns as well. I am not too sure what specifically you are seeking to know, so please elaborate, if possible. Thanks.

I have a psyop unit here that is ABN! so, yes, you can do sexy hooah things in the reserve too. Where do you want to drill/ where are you going after you get off AD?
