Looking for info on these mos's so I can decide on what I want to voluntarily reclass to before my window. What's the day-to-day life, progression, and workload looking like these days for these jobs? I'm a SGT promotable with 9 years in. current mos 91s points have been maxed for past few years so looking to also reclass to progress at a decent rate since I plan on trying to retire. At least as a E7. Thanks for any info.

A few things to point you in the right direction.

● There are many different official and unoffiical videos you can access on YouTube which describe the various MOSes ('day in the life', MOS job and functions, skills and knowledge used, etc). Use the following search function and replace XX with the MOS you're looking for: MOS "XX" army site:youtube.com

So for 12T, it would be: MOS "12T" army site:youtube.com

● Explore the Army's Career Progression Plan for each MOS. Do a search for the MOS plus "Career Progression Plan". I.e.: 12T "Career Progression Plan"

● Look at the G-1's Smartbook (DA Pam 611-21)* for addition information on each MOS.

● Go to the Army's Center of Excellence for each MOS and look at the various guides, manual, blocks of instruction, etc. For example, the Maneuver Support Center of Excellence* is for schoolhouse for 12Ts.

● Make sure you go to the OSD COOL (Credentialing Opportunities On-Line) site* to get an overview of the various certifications, related civilian occupations, etc.

The Promotion point cut-off trend since the beginning of the year for those listed MOSs (SGT and SSG) are as follows:

July 2024
12T 24 24
14G 798 595
68T 604 615

June 2024:
12T 214 24
14G 798 798
68T 560 664

May 2024
12T 232 24
14G 798 798
68T 428 621

April 2024
12T 170 24
14G 391 440
68T 523 798

March 2024
12T 157 24
14G 380 798
68T 798 798

February 2024
12T 200 24
14G 382 457
68T 439 798

January 2024
12T 264 321
14G 391 405
68T 471 608

Based on those trends, it looks like 12T had only one "hard month" for scores, which was January. Either way, it appears that all you need to do is show up, breathe and you will get promoted as a 12T

But unless something has changed, it is my understanding that if you reclass you lose your Promotable Status.

I don't believe you lose your promotable status. Or at least hasn't been briefed to me while I've been the retention nco. Thank you though, seems only 14g is available after seeing the in/out calls

SGT Blade Davenport - Can keep the "P?" Nice. Years ago, you'd lose it if you switched MOSs
