Has anyone heard of a 25S getting stationed at Walter Reed Medical research center? What could I possibly do there?

I am a 25s in AIT and a classmate and I both got orders to Walter Reed. Has anyone heard of 25 series getting sent here as a duty station? Can anyone give me info as to what I could possibly be doing here? Is there a signal unit there? etc....?

You will probably end up in the IT department.

They have a help desk for the on hand personnel, it might be in there. Computers run all the systems they need for medical records and appointments.

You’ll be supporting Walter Reed’s telemedicine department.

Are you going through Tactical or Strategic? Your orders may change to Fort Detrick.

PV2 Private RallyPoint Member take your hand dandy CAC card, go to the US Army Force Management Agency FMSweb, request a log in which is auto approved, use the UIC and look up the TDA or MTOE, look at the personnel portion and find your MOS. It will tell you where you could work.

Option 2: Request a sponsor and ask them.
