Documented history

Special Technical Operations

The manual took effect on May 15, 2006, but personnel implementation was explicitly deferred. No specific effective date is given for the 9935-to-8016 conversion, so 2006 identifies the manual transition rather than a confirmed conversion date.

Source extraction notes

The cited source prints the MOS code but not its occupational title; no title was inferred. Enlisted MOS moved from reporting category 9000 to miscellaneous-requirements category 8000. 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.
