Wheeled Vehicle Recovery

ALC does not provide H8 ASI certification. The recovery portion of 91B ALC is a 2-3 day overview for supervisory roles only. This is a common misconception that the schoolhouse usually puts to rest at the beginning of the recovery block. The problem, is that Soldiers (NCOs) still return to their units and claim that they are H8 based off of ALC completion. I can tell you, as an OLD H8 guy, ALC does not provide the full spectrum of knowledge needed to safely conduct recovery operations.

You're welcome. 91B ALC teaches a small amount of recovery operations. Not enough to say you are qualified but just enough to supervise someone who is.

To piggyback where is it in black and white that it says you have to be a 91b to go to H8? the only thing that I can find is that it must be a 91 series mechanic. I am a 91e who ends up on a lot of recovery missions and have asked for the school and i get the same response your not a 91b

Whew, recovering a stuck vehicle sounds like a tough job! It requires strategy and teamwork, kind of like keeping your <a href="https://monkey-mart-online.github.io/">monkey mart</a> running smoothly. You have to manage resources, solve problems, and sometimes even rescue customers who've gone bananas!

H8 ASI is dropped at SFC when you become 91X. ALC doesn't make you H8 qualified. It only gives you enough knowledge to supervise H8 qualified Soldiers

SFC (Join to see) so my 1SG is a maintenance guy and asked my my ASI fell off my ERB. Told him that S1 does not do that it is automatically done. Where can I reference it stating that H8 is not an ASI for us any more? He was looking at my records for MSG.

Thanks that would be great.
