Hi, you can find a few of them on the site by going to the "Advanced" search link in the top right of most pages. In the Advanced Search field, just change branch to Army and specialty to 740A. Below are links to who I found. I hope you are able to connect and that this helps!

Just make sure that you meet all the prerequisites and requirements. SLC, civilian education, and additional skill identifiers are a plus. I know this question was asked over a year ago but if you need assistance or someone to review your packet, my email address is [login to see] .

I was at FLW a couple weeks ago for SLC and had a short, informal one on one talk with the CCWO for Chemical. He spent a great deal of time talking about how selective the Chem Warrants are going to be for the next couple of years, primarily because the regiment is still trying to feel out the position and shape their long term goals and expectations. He did mention that the last several Chemical packets that were recommended to go to the selection board had an average of APFT obove 270.

Just make sure you have great NCOER's, and leadership in Chemical positions are a plus. If you have an opportunity to go to SLC before you put in a packet, it may be a strength as well.
