AOS is the database of record for approved Modified Table of Organization and Equipment (MTOE) and Table of Distribution and Allowance (TDA) documents. The Officer Position Book is updated on an annual basis as new MTOEs and TDAs are implemented. The book is organized by officer classification functional categories. The purpose of the book is to give officers at every rank an overview of career and promotion opportunities across all branches and all units. It should also be used as a tool by raters, senior raters, and mentors when counseling officers on their long term plans and goals within the KSARNG. Comments, questions, or suggestions on the Officer Position Book should be addressed to the KSARNG Officer Personnel Management Branch at [email protected]. 4 KSARNG Officer Position Roll-up Branch Branch Descriptions LT CPT MAJ LTC COL Air Defense Artillery AD (14A) 0 1 0 0 0 Adjutant General AG (42B, 42H) 5 6 5 1 2 AMEDD Immaterial AI (05A) 0 0 4 1 2 Army Nurse Corps AN (66B, 66H) 0 3 5 1 0 Armor AR (19A) 8 2 0 0 0 Aviation AV (15A, 15B, 15D, 67J Series) 8 12 8 3 1 Branch Immaterial BI (01A, 01C) 3 25 31 27 9 Civil Affairs CA (38A) 0 0 1 0 0 Chaplain Corps CH (56A) 0 7 6 1 1 Combat Arms Immaterial CI (02A, 02B) 4 13 9 7 1 Chemical Corps CM (74A) 4 3 0 0 0 Cyber Corps CY (17B) 0 1 2 1 0 Dental Corps DC (63A, 63R) 0 1 3 1 0 Corps of Engineer EN (12A) 15 12 6 2 1 Field Artillery FA (13A) 29 26 9 4 1 Force Management FD (50A) 0 0 2 0 0 Financial Management FI (36A) 0 2 2 1 0 Infantry IN (11A) 5 3 0 0 0 Information Operations IO (30A) 0 1 2 1 0 Judge Advocate General JA (27A) 0 11 7 2 2 Logistics LG (90A) 0 32 16 5 0 Medical Corps MC (60A, 60W, 61N, 62B) 0 6 8 2 0 Military Intelligence MI (35D, 35F, 35E, 35G) 2 10 5 1 0 Military Police MP (31A) 4 3 0 0 0 Medical Service Corps (70) MS (70 series, 72 series) 8 8 11 1 0 Ordnance Corps OD (91A) 18 0 0 0 0 Operations Research OR (49A) 0 0 1 1 0 Public Affairs PA (46A) 0 4 3 2 0 Psychological Operations PO (37A) 0 1 0 0 0 Quartermaster Corps QM (92A) 6 0 0 0 0 Army Acquisition Corps RD (51C) 0 1 1 0 0 Signal Corps SC (25A, 25G) 2 8 2 0 0 Information Network Engineering SE (26B) 0 1 0 0 0 Strategic Plans and Policy Officer SJ (59A) 0 0 2 1 0 Simulation Operations SM (57A) 0 1 2 2 0 Medical Specialist Corps SP (65D, 65B) 1 7 9 1 0 Transportation Corps TC (88A) 14 0 0 0 0 Total 598 136 211 162 69 20 5 OPERATIONS DIVISION This functional category gathers maneuver branches and functional areas (FA) that have similar battlefield application or complementary roles.

The Air Defense Artillery Officer provide fires to protect the force and selected geopolitical assets from aerial attack, missile attack and surveillance. There is only one ADA position available in Kansas. Kansas does not have an ADA unit or the force structure to organically grow an ADA officer. This branch is not available for brand new commissionees. This branch may provide a good broadening opportunity for a combat arms officer to expand their skill set, but opportunities to serve in this branch are limited and do not exist in Kansas beyond the rank of Captain. Interested senior Lieutenants or junior Captains can gain qualification through a 2-week transition course, or through the Captain’s Career Course. Officers who wish to be promoted beyond the rank of Captain must seek qualification in another branch or compete for Combat Immaterial or Branch Immaterial positions.

  • The United States Atomic Army, 1956-1960 Dissertation
    INTIMIDATING THE WORLD: THE UNITED STATES ATOMIC ARMY, 1956-1960 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Paul C. Jussel, B.A., M.M.A.S., M.S.S. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2004 Dissertation Committee Approved by Professor Allan R. Millett, Advisor Professor John R. Guilmartin __________________ Professor William R. Childs Advisor Department of History ABSTRACT The atomic bomb created a new military dynamic for the world in 1945. The bomb, if used properly, could replace the artillery fires and air-delivered bombs used to defeat the concentrated force of an enemy. The weapon provided the U.S. with an unparalleled advantage over the rest of the world, until the Soviet Union developed its own bomb by 1949 and symmetry in warfare returned. Soon, theories of warfare changed to reflect the belief that the best way to avoid the effects of the bomb was through dispersion of forces. Eventually, the American Army reorganized its divisions from the traditional three-unit organization to a new five-unit organization, dubbed pentomic by its Chief of Staff, General Maxwell D. Taylor. While atomic weapons certainly had an effect on Taylor’s reasoning to adopt the pentomic organization, the idea was not new in 1956; the Army hierarchy had been wrestling with restructuring since the end of World War II. Though the Korean War derailed the Army’s plans for the early fifties, it returned to the forefront under the Eisenhower Administration. The driving force behind reorganization in 1952 was not ii only the reoriented and reduced defense budget, but also the Army’s inroads to the atomic club, formerly the domain of only the Air Force and the Navy.

  • Basic Branches of the United States Army Basic Branch Information After
    Basic Branches of the United States Army Basic Branch Information After graduation from ROTC Advanced Camp and before commissioning, cadets make the most important decision of their emerging Army career ­ which branch to serve in. The reasons for choosing a branch are varied and personal. The choice can based on the desire to use the academic credentials gained while at school or simply a desire to do something exciting. The 16 basic branches available to cadets are all important to the total Army force and each cannot function without the other. Adjutant General ­ To plan, develop, and direct systems for managing the Army's personnel, administrative, and Army band systems. These systems impact on unit readiness, morale, and soldier career satisfaction, and cover the life cycle management of all Army personnel. Air Defense Artillery ­ The primary mission will be to protect the force and critical tactical and geopolitical assets. This important task is made especially challenging by the evolution of modern tactical ballistic missiles, unmanned aerial vehicles and aircraft. Armor/Cavalry ­ The heritage and spirit of the United States Calvary lives today in Armor. And although the horse has been replaced by 60 tons of steel driven by 1,500HP engine, the dash and daring of the Horse Calvary still reside in Armor. Today, the Armor branch of the Army (which includes Armored Calvary), is one of the Army's most versatile combat arms. It’s continually evolving to meet worldwide challenges and potential threats. Aviation­ One of the most exciting and capable elements of the Combined Arms Team. As the only branch of the Army that operates in the third dimension of the battlefield, Aviation plays a key role by performing a wide range of missions under diverse conditions.
