Thanks for clearing that up.

I was stationed as a strategic SATCOM'er for my 1st 6 years and then got out and contracted for USAISEC for 2 years. Being a civilian just wasn't my suited for me and I decided that making the Army a career is what I should focus on. Currently, I am a Specialist trying in the process of rectifying that situation.
I assume you did DGM and haven't done MSE yet?

Raanger Tirehouse,

I have not done MSE you are correct about that. I am not sure what the acronym DGM stands for so I am guessing I have never done that either. I did strategic SATCOM work primarily before. CDS/SMU switch, Sat Modems, Promina, and multiplexers (TSSP, LRM, FCC-100) along with a few others.

Commopuke,

There are several things you need to do to become a 25S in Regiment... First go through Airborne school. I would reccomend then going through RIP (not ROP) and make your E-5 in Regiment. I say this because you will not get "hired" as a NCO until you have TacSat team-leader experience and a Tab(at least). PM me if you have any specific questions.
