What are some broadening assignments for E5 that are KD complete?

Just trying to see what I can switch to before I get my P status. I'm already KD complete on my 2O level just not sure if I can even do anything until I'm KD complete as a SSG

I don't think KD means what you think it means brother... How do you figure you're KD complete?

I think you have some of these terms confused. An assignment is not something that you take to fill time between now and your next promotion. Your primary broadening assignments are drill sergeant and recruiter, and possibly instructor if you are jtac certified.
What you should be focused on right now for career progression is Advanced schooling. Ranger school, jtac, airborne, air assault, jumpmaster, Pathfinder, combatives, battlestaff, fries master, slic, or anything else like that

My advice is get that Company FSNCO/BN targeting time knocked out first. After you are done with that then look into a broadening assignment. With our MOS branch isnt going to send you anywhere until you do.
