Notes & Sources
- L6 (Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN) Reconnaissance for Brigade Combat) is an Army Additional Skill Identifier (proponent: U.S. Army Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear School (USACBRNS)), not a standalone military occupation.
- Authority scope: "Identifies positions in a CBRN Reconnaissance Platoon that require special training and skills to operate the Stryker based CBRN reconnaissance vehicle." Award requirement: "Must successfully complete the CBRN Reconnaissance for Brigade Combat Teams Course at the USACBRNS, Ft Leonard Wood, MO." Restrictions: "For use with MOS 74D 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.
