=Military Occupational Specialties (MOS)=
==11C - Combat Engineer==
[[File:Combat Engineer.jpeg|frame|right|US combat engineer setting a satchel charge in World War II.]]
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.
==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.

On 21 Jul 2019, Charlie Company 2-7 was formed upon the introduction of Hell Let Loose into 2nd Battalion. In 2020, Hell Let Loose would continue to experience a surge in membership. C/2-7 would split and reopen Alpha Company (A/2-7) on 21 May 2020 after being closed for nearly 11 years. Unfortunately, C/2-7 would be stood down for a short eight-month span, from 01 Dec 2022, before reopening as a dedicated Armor Company under the Command of Ross Strider, then a First Lieutenant, on 13 Jul 2023. On 21 Nov 2025 the decision was made to close Charlie Company/2nd Battalion and merge those troopers into 3rd Platoon/Easy Company due to low personnel numbers. https://7cav.us/threads/85954/ https://7cav.us/threads/85950/

Charlie Company's mission is to provide an environment of camaraderie and respect for all future and current members to gather together.

19K - Armor Crewman

As an Armor Crewman, you’ll work as part of a team to operate tanks and assault vehicles and fire weapons to destroy enemy positions. You’ll need to be ready to operate various armored chassis in all positions. These positions include Driver, Gunner, and Tank Commander (TC). The Driver is responsible for maneuvering the vehicle and operating the bow gun, if equipped. The Gunner is responsible for round selection and engagement of targets designated by the TC. The TC is in command of the vehicle, and is responsible for issuing orders to crewmen within their vehicle, prioritizing target assignments, coordinating with other units, and executing orders given by the Commander.

Armor is a mobile support force capable of running operations on its own on a limited scale. Armor are primarily a support force engaged with infantry used to take and hold a key area from the enemy or to deny them access to such by utilizing combined arms warfare. Armor is to be used in close order with Infantry.
