Equal Opportunity Advisor (Eoa)
The manual was effective May 15, 2006, but no specific implementation date was given for the 8534-to-0147 change. July 20, 2006 was the announcement date, so only the year 2006 is established for this classification transition.
Source extraction notes
The cited source prints the MOS code but not its occupational title; no title was inferred. Enlisted MOS moved from category 8000/9000 to a regular occupational field. The manual is effective 2006-05-15, but personnel/HRDP implementation is explicitly deferred, so effective_to is null. No row-specific effective date is printed; year-only precision reflects the 2006 manual transition.
