Charlie Company Military Occupational Specialties (MOS)

Currently Charlie Company employs 3 different Military Occupational Specialties.

11C - Combat Engineer

Combat engineers facilitate movement and support of friendly forces while impeding those of the enemy. Combat engineers build fighting positions, fortifications, and roads. They conduct demolition missions and clear minefields manually or through use of specialized vehicles. Typical combat engineer missions include construction and breaching of trenches, tank traps and other obstacles and fortifications; obstacle emplacement and bunker construction; route clearance and reconnaissance; bridge and road construction or destruction; emplacement and clearance of land mines; and combined arms breaching. Usually, a combat engineer is also trained as an infantryman, and combat engineer units frequently fight alongside the infantry or fight as infantry as a secondary mission.

19D - Cavalry Scouts

The Cavalry Scouts are a specialty trained platoon or section of infantry soldiers. Unlike a traditional infantry platoon whose primary mission is to close with and destroy the enemy, the Cav Scouts primary mission is to provide the battalion commander information about the enemy. The battalion commander uses the Cav Scouts to gather critical battlefield information. This information is then used in planning and execution of combat operations.

11B - Infantry

The Infantry are experts in individual skill and teamwork coordination. Through larger platoon actions, whether in defense or offense, the infantry squad utilizes all member classifications to overwhelm the enemy and seize the objective. Members of the Infantry are masters in land warfare, communication, and tactical movement. In the Infantry, every member is a rifleman first and a specialist second. As a trooper, each rifleman will train extensively on marksmanship, control over their weapon systems, and team battle drills. Additionally, troopers train in coordination with other support elements to improve our combined arms operations.

Sergeant Norm Going’s dedication to duty and exceptionally meritorious service are in great credit to themselves and the 7th Cavalry Gaming Regiment.
