Ah yes, you are correct. It has been a few years. I shoulda known that though, some of my best friends were in the Mortar Platoon.
Curious that you were able to secure a second MOS. Maybe it's different for No-Go's ( evil: ) or Reserve's. During my time in Active Duty, I'd never heard of or met an individual that held two MOS's simultaneously. You could request going to AIT for a different one, but had to give up your current MOS.[/quote]
No, you're right, you can't have two at once. But, when I found out my dad was a mortarman when he was in the service, I wanted to be one too. So, I put in a request to change my platoon, but I needed to goto school first, so I did. So now, I have a primary and secondary MOS.
