Notes & Sources
- T8 (Civil Operations Specialist) is an Army Additional Skill Identifier (proponent: National Guard Bureau (NGB)), not a standalone military occupation.
- Authority scope: "There are no positions identified for Civil Operations Specialists." Award requirement: "Must be a graduate of the NGB Civil Operations Specialist Course, conducted under the auspices of the National Guard Bureau J3 Counter-drug Mobile Training Team." Restrictions: "For identification of personnel 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.
