Inactivate non combat MOS's

Major B,

I think you hit on what I am saying slightly, NTC and maybe even JRTC are probably the only times within the last decade that 92Gs are actually doing their jobs, other than that they are very sparsely used for their cooking skills and capabilities.

Downrange, forget about it, during 2 OIF rotations and 1 OEF rotation, most of the cooks within my BDE were either used as tower guards, detainee camp guards or escort guards for prisoner transport, not a single one worked within a DFAC except the E7/E8 that was running the DFAC with his civilian counterpart.

Major Miller, based on what you said they were the only DFAC in OEF run by Soldiers just adds more credence to my statement, now while the Army is constantly changing as Major B stated, and they are looking to reduce the contract reliance, I have yet to see many major changes as far as this MOS is concerned.

I just happened to pick 92G as an example, there are other MOSs that could probably also fall into same situation, but I chose one that most likely done its job since 9/11 compared to any other, and this is something that can't be disputed.

I thank both gentleman for their collective feedback and great support for the 92G field, early in my career I made good friends with as many cooks as I could, being an MP on shift work it made for help getting late night meals or snacks without having to go around trying to find something open, I had the hook-ups on just about every base I was stationed at in the 80s and 90s.
