I am a future soldier shipping to Fort Sill on July 7. After I have completed that, I go to Fort Huachuca for AIT in MOS 35M. The thing about it is that I, in all honesty, know very little about this MOS. I mainly picked it because I qualified for scoring well enough on the DLAB. Anything helps! Thank you.

Humint
PVT (Join to see) In it's most simplest form, Human Intelligence (HUMINT) is defined as any information that can be gathered from human sources.

You must have great communication skills, both written and oral.

Don't stress too much about your job right now. Focus on physical fitness and learning what it means to be a Soldier.

The first sentence of the Creed of the Military Intelligence Corps is, "I am a Soldier first, but an intelligence professional second to none."

You must learn to be a Soldier before all else.

When you get to FT Huachuca, if and when you are allowed off post, do not talk about your training on post to anyone. Concentrate on the techniques that they teach you and the paperwork aspect. There are soldiers that are going to depend on the information that you gather. Attention to detail is the rule of the day there.

PVT Burgess, hello and welcome to the brotherhood. You took the oath and you are about to begin your journey as a U.S. soldier. I am a 35M currently. I have been in two years and have had some TDY time as well but no official deployments. Since we are in a time of downsizing and very few deployments, it is hard for a 35M to perform some of his/her duties. Feel free to text or call me and I will be more than happy to talk to you about this MOS. Message me for my number. Good luck at Basic Training!

If you are the type of person that can strike up, and maintain, a conversation with anyone, anywhere you will do well. If you want to do the peacetime version of the job ask to go to Korea, 501st MI BDE. If you get a language and you happen to get Korea, study HARD and graduate with better than a 2/2/2, particularly in speaking, you might have the chance to do a unique job in Korea that requires fluent ability in Korean.

Its a fun job, try to get into additional schools if you can while you are at Huachuca (doubtful though...). Start looking at college (yes i know you cant use tuition assistance until a year after AIT, there are other sources of free money).
