MOS - Data Systems

[osborned]

I was wondering if anyone here knew anything about this field. It used to be a field all by itself designated field 40XX, but when I signed the DEP I was told it had been merged with 06XX which is Communications. I don't really care as long as I'm still working on computers. I'd rather not find out that while I went in to repair PC's I discover I'm going to be a radioman.

One of my best friends is an 0656, a Tactical Systems Specialist and I believe they are responsible for setting computer networks in AO's. Here's a link that will explain the whole 06XX MOS Field http://usmilitary.about.com/od/enlistedjo2/a/06.htm

Thanks for the link, but I've been all over that site, and it's a few years out of date. Their data still shows the two fields being separate.
