Just be aware that if you go to a unit with a different mission than your primary MOS, you will probably get promoted out of that unit according to where your primary MOS is needed. It is the second largest military occupational specialty (MOS) in the Army second only to the Infantry. The Civil Affairs mission often calls for the skill and it's easier for the unit if they already have it in house. To ensure utmost proficiency and preparedness, Soldiers with military occupational specialty (MOS) 68W (Combat Medic Specialist) will demonstrate medical skills proficiency according to Army Regulation (AR) 350-1, Army Training and Leader Development and Army Doctrine Publication (ADP) 7-0, Training. Choose a military occupation from one of the expansion lists below. In the Reserve (and in the active Army to an extent, if you are proactive and network well), you can try to switch units around to where you want, but eventually you are going to get promoted and assigned according to your 68W MOS with no guarantee that you will stay in the Civil Affairs or Special Operations community.ģ8Bs with medical skills are in demand. COOL (Credentialing Opportunities On-Line) helps service members find information on certifications and licenses related to their military occupation as well as other supporting information. Your training will allow you to serve as a first responder and triage illnesses and injuries to save lives, much like a paramedic in the civilian world. If you are a 38B like myself and try to go the other way, it's not likely to work because then your primary MOS is 68W and you will go where the army wants. As a Combat Medic Specialist, you'll administer emergency medical care in the field in both combat and humanitarian situations. You would be a Civil Affairs Soldier with a civil affairs mission. If you are a 68W and you re-class to 38B, then the Army will pay for your annual refresher courses and you can continue to function in the capacity of your secondary MOS 68W in addition to your primary MOS as a 38B. Having said that, there is no such thing as a Civil Affairs Medic. Pharmacy Specialists (MOS 68Q) prepare and dispense prescription medication to patients. Pharmacy Specialist (MOS 68Q) An Army Pharmacy Specialist, like many military medical professions, is comparable to its civilian counterpart.

I am also a reservist and don't know how much different it would be on active duty, but Civil Affairs is about 90% or more reserve units. MOS 68W HEALTH CARE SPECIALIST SKILL LEVELS 1/2/3 HEADQUARTERS, DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY DISTRIBUTION RESTRICTION: Distribution authorized to US Government agencies and their contractors only to protect technical and operational information from automatic dissemination under the International Exchange Program or by other means. It’s easy to see why a Radiology Specilist is so important to 68 Series MOS. my 1SG recently looked into this pretty closely.
