Notes & Sources

  • G9 (Technical Surveillance Countermeasures (TSCM)) is an Army Additional Skill Identifier (proponent: U.S. Army Intelligence Center of Excellence and Ft Huachuca), effective 2007-06, not a standalone military occupation.
  • Authority scope: "Identifies positions requiring Soldiers qualified in TSCM to include specialized electronic equipment and techniques used in detection and location of clandestine listening devices." Award requirement: "Must successfully complete the TSCM Course, Ft Meade, MD." Restrictions: "For use with MOS 35L only." The identifier alone does not establish a civilian occupation; occupation-specific skills and career guidance depend on the holder's primary MOS and actual duties.
