Should there be conversion of 19D MOS back to 11D?

I heard that a 19-D is like the infantryman of Armor.

Come on the Infantry guys need somebody to rag on just to rag on

19D's, are basically mounted Infantry assigned to the Cavalry. An MOS is a job title to distinguish what the soldier's job is and what slot is available for recruitment.. So basically a CAV Scout is an 11B doing 11B and Scout activities. The 19D designation marks it as a survival MOS. The Modern Scout can defend and attack if need be but the main focus is to scout enemy forces, avenues of travel or approach. So no, I don't think they should go back to an 11B designation.

Speaking as a former 19E, I believe they belong with Armor. I was in 4/12 Cav at Ft. Polk and we were a mix of scouts and tankers. A platoon had 2 scout tracks, 2 TOW tracks and 4 M60's. We used to chew regular Armor units up and spit them out in exercises all the time.

I would rather ride in a vehicle than walk. the 11sies can keep all their flair, I wanna be able to walk when I'm an old man.

Àir calvary belongs to no one but themselves and find the enemy long before anyone else, engages him and eliminates him.

Armor to be used right always needs its support or its vulnerable

BLASPHEMY!! Lol

I do not know any Delta that wants to be an 11D. And know none that want tonware an EIB. NONE.

The whole discussion is somewhat ludicrous. There are wide variations within a single MOS without even involving others, i.e. 11C mortars 4.2mm vs. 81mm. 11B line infantry vs. scouts. I was an 11B Scout and can tell you it takes quite a bit of training to get someone up to speed coming from a conventional line company.
