This soldier training publication (STP) is intended for soldiers holding MOS 91M, Skill Levels 1, 3, and 4, their supervisors, trainers, and commanders. It contains an MOS Training Plan providing information needed to plan, conduct, and evaluate unit training, one of the most important jobs of military leaders. It includes standardized training objectives in the form of task summaries that can be used to train and evaluate soldiers on critical tasks supporting unit missions during wartime.

Soldiers holding MOS 91M should have access to this publication. Trainers and first line supervisors should actively plan for soldiers’ access, making it available in work areas, unit learning centers, and unit libraries.

This publication applies to the Active Army, the Army National Guard (ARNG)/Army National Guard of the United States (ARNGUS), and the United States Army Reserve (USAR) unless otherwise stated.

Chapter 1 Introduction

1-1.General.This soldier training publication (STP) identifies individual MOS training requirements for soldiers holding MOS 91M. Commanders, trainers, and soldiers should use it to plan, conduct, and evaluate individual training in units. The STP is the primary MOS reference for supporting self-development, evaluating MOS proficiency, and training of 91M soldiers. Commanders employ two primary methods to evaluate soldiers' proficiency:

Commander's evaluation. Commander’s evaluations are local tests or assessments of soldiers' performance of MOS-specific and common tasks critical to the unit mission. They may be conducted year-round.

Common task test (CTT). CTTs are hands-on tests used to evaluate proficiency on common tasks. Alternate written tests are provided if equipment is not available for hands-on testing.

This publication is the soldier's primary reference to prepare for a commander's evaluation of MOS-specific tasks. It contains task summaries for all critical tasks specific to the MOS and skill level (SL). Commanders and trainers will use this soldier's manual/trainer's guide (SM/TG) to plan and conduct training and commander's evaluations.

Chapter 2, Trainer’s Guide, contains information needed to plan training requirements for this MOS. The trainer's guide—
