Overview
An officer assigned to an IDC Qualified Officer Billet serves in a Flag Officer billet designated for officers with designators 180X, 181X, 182X, 183X, or 184X. Credentials, civilian occupations, and additional information relate to the designator held before assignment to this billet.
Notes & Sources
- NOOCS Part A (Edition 96, Jul 2026) prints billet code 1850 as “Billets which may be filled by any appropriately skilled and experienced IWC Officer”, with no separate officer designator code (officer code column N/A). The 185X key denotes that billet family, not an occupation.
- “IDC” in the page label is the legacy Information Dominance Corps wording for the Information Warfare Community (IWC) designators (180X-184X) named in the description; the Edition 96 row itself names only “IWC Officer” and does not state flag-officer level.
- Because the source defines a billet fill rule rather than duties, no occupation-specific skills, paths, or credentials are published here; see the cited NOOCS row and the referenced designator pages.
