Overview
The Enlisted Aide specialty identifies positions requiring Soldiers qualified in enlisted aide duties and functions. These positions are on a General Officer's personal staff and require enlisted aide qualifications.
Notes & Sources
- Z5 (Enlisted Aide) is an Army Additional Skill Identifier (proponent: USAQMS), not a standalone military occupation.
- Authority scope: "Identifies positions requiring Soldiers to perform the duties of an enlisted aide on a General/Flag Officer’s personal staff." Award requirement: "Must successfully complete the Advance Culinary Skills Training Course and the Enlisted Aide Training Course, conducted at the Joint Culinary Center of Excellence, Ft Lee, VA." 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.
