• Have on-the-job experience, which may include specific (operations/logistic support) experience in any position involving direct contact with equipment/commodity/electronics/repair, retail or wholesale munitions operations, and/or munitions management. ARNG, USAR and civilian experience related to MOS will be taken into consideration.

Primary positions (supply specialist, admin NCO, commander's driver, etc.) and primary duties/responsibilities (recruiting NCO, range safety NCO, company ammunition NCO, HAZMAT driver, etc.) not directly related to logistical operations, commensurate with the rank of the Soldier, do not qualify as on-the-job experience.

• Provide a copy of all NCOERs, which should reflect MOS proficiency in an engineer equipment maintenance supervisory capacity.
• Enclose a written recommendation from a Warrant Officer from within the applicant's organization who holds the Warrant Officer (WO) MOS the applicant is applying for. In organizations where no WO in the correct MOS is available, a letter of recommendation from a senior WO in the correct MOS from a supporting unit can be substituted.
