The Retention NCO showed me an opening at Ft Belvoir for my MOS. The code S was next to it; what's it mean? I know the SQI P means airborne.

3–14. Skill qualification identifiers, additional skill identifiers, and language codes (fifth through ninth
characters of military occupational specialty code)
a. The SQI is the fifth character of the MOSC and may be used with any MOS unless restricted by DA Pam
611–21. The fifth character of the MOSC will contain the letter “O” when the Soldier is not qualified for an SQI.
(1) The servicing chief, MPD CDR, BCT/BDE S1 or the training activity CDR will award fully qualified Soldiers
appropriate SQI by publishing orders. Excluding SQI “X”, “Q”, “8”, or “B” (which maintain precedence while a
Soldier is assigned to an authorized DS position, equal opportunity advisor position, instructor position, or IG NCO
position, respectively), the order of precedence for SQI is—
(a) V – ranger-parachutist.
(b) G – ranger.
(c) S – special operations support personnel.
(d) P – parachutist.
(e) F – flying status.
(f) M – first sergeant.
(g) X – drill sergeant.
(h) Q – equal opportunity advisor.
(i) 8 – instructor.
(j) B – inspector general noncommissioned officer.
14 AR 614–200 • 26 February 2009/RAR 3 September 2009
(k) 4 – noncareer recruiter.
(l) L – linguist.
SPC (Join to see) hope that helps.

Spot on! You provided a dual benefit, both to the team member asking the question to the platform and that of someone who may have had a similar question. Great contribution!

The codes in question are not SQIs...this information, although helpful, is not for this question.

AR 614-200 may be able to provide you with some clarity. However, from what I am gathering; an S code reads as follows: "Soldiers being reassigned or deleted from AI status for compassionate reasons. The termination date will be when the
problem is resolved or 12 months, whichever occurs first". Best of luck within your new assignment pursuit.
