<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I have been a 35L for 15 years and there is about 30 different route within the MOS you can go into with varying levels of classification so I wont dive to far into that. However there are three very basic things you can do...<br /><br />1. Tactical: you wear a uniform everyday, go to ranges, motorpool and frankly do Army stuff and wait to deploy to do tactical CI work. Most folks do this for their first assignment and cut their teeth on Leadership tasks, basic Soldering task, and being able to work in small teams or completely independently with little or no oversight.<br /><br />2. Strategic: Google &quot;902d Counterintelligence&quot;. This is not completely the whole world of strategic CI but they think they are. However these Agents generally wear civilian clothing, conduct investigations and Under CI jurisdiction. You can also be stuck in staff and it&#39;s like being in the &quot;s&quot; shops in any BN or BDE. This is also the more murky area as there is alot you can do in the strategic area. <br /><br />Stratical: Sounds like a George W. Bush word but this is the CI that you do overseas. You do both tactical/force protection CI and the investigative sides of the coin.<br /><br />In all areas of CI you are still a Soldier and thus you will do all the basic stuff that you are likely doing now such as PT tests, PT at least one or twice a week, SHARP/EO training, ect. However, you will be expected to be a big boy and you will be given the flexibility to do your own thing until you prove you can&#39;t handle that. Last week I took a personal day by calling in because my wife was under the weather and really didn&#39;t have anything going on but also ob the flip side I was called for a two week TDY with a 4 hour heads up.
