Documented history

Sergeant Major of the Marine Corps

The manual was effective May 15, 2006, but personnel implementation was explicitly deferred, with no specific conversion date given for MOS 9991. July 20, 2006, is the announcement's publication date, not an established implementation 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.
