When I first joined I was a 35K - Avionic Mechanic. I then moved into 98J - EW/SIGINT Interceptor and 35K became my secondary MOS. While I was still serving 35K changed to 67N and is now 15N. Meanwhile 98J has become 35S - really close to my original MOS of 35K which now doesn't exist at all. It's enough to make my head hurt!Response by SSG Dale London made Feb 15 at 2018 9:31 PM2018-02-15T21:31:13-05:002018-02-15T21:31:13-05:00SPC Reed Jewell3645219<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>36k20Response by SPC Reed Jewell made May 20 at 2018 1:22 PM2018-05-20T13:22:20-04:002018-05-20T13:22:20-04:00LCpl Craig A.
