    Soldiers in the 35P Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) face many challenges as the progress through their language school and Advanced Individual Training (AIT). They spend six to 18 months focusing all their attention on learning a second language at an accelerated pace and when they have accomplished that daunting task they are sent to Goodfellow Air Force Base to learn the technical aspect of their MOS, usually another three or four months of training.

    Mobility Officer Position

    Establish more sequential and progressive assignments for WO1 882As that better prepare them for the Mobility Officer position in the BCT and the strategic assignments that follow. One way to do this would be to reestablish assignments for WO1 882As in the Movement Control Teams.

Over time the demand for MWOs in the BCTs and the limited number of MWOs in the army eliminated these positions. Reestablishing the MWO position and manning them with WO1 882As would create a company level sequential starting positions equivalent to the MWOs knowledge, skills, and attitude.…

Thatcher did a well-rounded job, but not a perfect job on how to confront the issue that Generation Y has with traditional research because she explains well why the generation gained a reputation a short attention span, and her format although confusing,…

We found out about her through our research on the Holocaust and the people who were seen as figures of light during a time in such darkness. It was not easy to find information on her because of how reserved she kept her life, but the information that we did find on her is remarkable in every way possible. We chose Hélène Berr as our National History Day (NHD) topic because of how much she cared for others over herself.…
