Well, I'd love to fly to California with yourself, Bill and a few others and knock on the lad's door (he's 15-16 years old) and give him a little wall-to-wall counselling....

...but since that's not possible, we just have to be extra-vigilant about no-life-having little boys that didn't get enough attention from Mommy and Daddy when they were in diapers.

I had to do quite a bit of checking and rechecking this time - didn't want to ban a legit serviceperson.
But fortunately, I took a page from Bluesman's book and ta-da!
Am I sure? Absolutely. Too many coincidences and similarities.

I blame myself...I've kinda/sorta appointed myself as the lad's keeper and I haven't been able to be on the board as much because of long hours at work.
Fortunately, that seems to be getting better now.

Whoops, I meant Warrior Medic...you're back to being a medic now?

Or are you an "11 Bravo"....an MOS which doesn't quite exist anymore, at least not in that exact designator...


Kid, you are one pathetic loser.

WTF is with people?

Jeez.

What actually has happened is that 11B and 11M are now one and the same as 11B, while 11X is the enlistment option that means the Army will end up choosing whether you'll be a 11B or 11C.

Anyways, your radar screen must be high tech to catch Warrior Medic coming backing using smarter stealth than most, who come back ASAP after getting the boot.

There were seven 11 series MOS's that i can remember when i was in.

11Mike- brad
11Bravo- rifleman
11Hotel- TOW
11H4- Dragon(im pretty sure it's H4, but i could be wrong)
11B4- Sniper
11C- mortarman/FDC crewman
11X- generic infantry designator for trainees

For some reason, I thought Dragon was a C2 ASI (additional skill identifier), and not a separate MOS. Same with sniper, it's always been just an ASI since I've been in, with B4 being the ASI.

When i was in i'm pretty sure Dragon had it's own MOS, which was H4 i think(you are correct that it is C2 now). It's been a while, and they've changed so much, so i could be mistaken. It seems that the only "H" 11 series MOS or ASI currently in use is for instructor(just a plain "H").

Sniper has always been an ASI since USASS was formed in 1987, you are absolutely correct about that.

The proper listing for an ASI(well, when i was in at least) would be the full MOS with all ASIs listed after. I've always just listed my MOS as 11B4 for simplicitys sake, but it should technically be 11B, followed by the Sniper ASI B4, with an 11C secondary, or 11BB4/11C.(sometimes there's a space after the first B, sometimes not, i guess it depends on the army typist, lol.)

To me once i got the B4 ASI i ceased to be an 11B and became an "11B4".
(even though technically i think an 11B4 is an 11B, rank E-7)

Writing 11B4 is just quicker and less confusing than 11BB4/11C, lol.
