Annex A to Chapter 8 of the RE/ QGE Regular Soldier Career Management Manual and MS Directive (CMM) (Amendment 1) introduced how the Corps will offer UKTAP and GURTAM soldiers the opportunity to join the ME (Cbt) Career Stream. The purpose of this PPN is to direct how applications to join the ME (Cbt) Career Stream are to be processed. 2. Objectives. The objectives of the ME (Cbt) Career Stream transfer are to: a. Aid the retention of soldiers in pinch point trades in general as well as those from the Cbt Engr trades1 who would rather resign than attend Cl1 trade training. b. Manage talent and allow selected soldiers to plug known gaps in the ME (Cbt) structure and specialise in the delivery of Combat Engineering, whilst maintaining dual-capability. Eligibility 3. Eligible Personnel. The eligibility criteria will be reviewed by RHQ RE regularly. Personnel who meet the following criteria are eligible to apply to join the ME (Cbt) Career Stream: a. ME (C3S), ME (Driver), ME (Engr Log Spec) and ME (POM) soldiers rank- ranged Spr-Sgt. b. ME (Geo) soldiers rank-ranged Spr-LCpl. c. Soldiers from any other RE/ QGE trade (less EOD&S) rank-ranged Spr to LCpl and who have not completed a Cl1 trade course. d. ME (Cbt) Cl2 and recommended for transfer by their OC. 4. Ineligible Personnel. a. Ineligible Personnel. The following SP are ineligible for transfer to the Cbt Engr Career Stream: (1) SP who have transferred into the EOD&S trade. (2) SP from the Cbt Engr trades and already have a Cl1 qualification in trade. 1 Cbt Engr trades = ACR, Armd, B&C, B&SF, C&J, Const Mat Tech, Des Dtmn, Dtmn E&M, Elec, Fab, Ftr, H&P, Svy Engr. OFFICIAL Page 1 of 3 OFFICIAL b. Management of Ineligible SP. SP from the Cbt Engr trades (less EOD&S) who do not meet the eligibility criteria but want to be employed in Cbt Engr posts in future need to make their intentions clear in Posting Preference Proformas2. 5. Quota Controls. RE Personnel Strategy will annually calculate how many soldiers may transfer out of every trade at each rank and publicise these quotas on their SharePoint site. No more than 60 SP may enter the ME (Cbt) Career Stream a year (April to April). Application Process 6. Action Required by Applicant. Eligible applicants may request to transfer to the ME (Cbt) Career Stream by completing a ‘Change of Employment Request Form’ at Annex A to Chapter 2 to the Regular Soldier CMM. The application is then to be submitted via the chain of command to the soldier’s OC. 7. Action Required by Applicant’s OC. OCs need to complete the final section of the Change of Employment Request Form, stating why the soldier should transfer to the ME (Cbt) Career Stream. Completed forms should then be sent to the unit RCMO. 8. Action Required by Applicant’s Unit. Units are to submit supported applications to APC like any other application to transfer3. Units are not permitted to block applications made by eligible SP who have been recommended for transfer. 9. Action Required by APC. Applications will be processed by APC without the requirement for selective boarding. Applications are to be referred to the RE Transfer Board in accordance with Chapter 7 of the Regular Soldier CMM. a. Acceptance of Transfer. APC will write to successful applicants stating the career implications (if any) of the transfer and the career and training plan for the selected soldier. Successful applicants will be required to sign to accept the conditions of the transfer and return it (via RCMO) to APC. b. Assignments. Successful applicants will be assigned to a Cbt Engr post within 6 months of selection and will remain in their current unit if at all possible: the only grounds a successful applicant should expect to be assigned to another unit is on selection for promotion. c. Course Loading. APC will load any successful applicants who require a Cbt Engr Course or Conversion Course in conjunction with the soldier’s RCMO4. d. Change of Trade and Trade-for-Pay. Successful applicants will change trade to ME (Cbt) on completion of any Cbt Engr training required. If a successful applicant already has the Cbt Engr qualification appropriate for their rank, the change of trade and pay (if appropriate) can happen immediately5. It is a unit responsibility to change the Trade for Pay on JPA. 2 With the majority of Cbt Engr trade posts from OR4 being Combat focused rather than trade, APC will attempt their best to meet the SP’s request provided the needs of the Service are met too. 3 Applications for the first batch of transferees are to be sent electronically to XXXXX XXXX ([email protected]) NLT COP Fri 28 Feb 20. 4 See PPN 19-08 for Combat Engineer Conversion Training policy. 5 Combat Engineer is a Supplement 3 Trade for Pay. OFFICIAL Page 2 of 3 OFFICIAL e. Maintaining the Quota. APC are to transfer no more than 60 soldiers to the ME (Cbt) Career Stream a year, averaging at 15 per quarter. The transfer year runs from 1 Apr to 31 Mar. If more than 60 applications to transfer are received in a year, APC will ask units to prioritise their candidates. f. First Batch. APC are to transfer the first batch of successful applicants to the ME (Cbt) Career Stream by 31 Mar 20. Exceptions and Special Cases 10. Para/ Cdo/ PF Recce. ME (C3S), ME (Dvr), ME (Engr Log Spec) and ME (POM) soldiers assigned to Pathfinders (PF), Recce Tp 23 Para Engr Regt and Recce Tp 24 Cdo RE, holding at least one of the following competencies are to be transferred to the ME (Cbt) Career Stream automatically, without referring to the RE Transfer Board6: (1) Inf|LT RECCE PTLMN|Army| (2) RM|RECCE OPERATOR(Signaller)|Navy| (3) Parachute|PATHFINDER SELECTION|Army| Soldiers transferred under these rules are to be subtracted from the annual quota of 60 soldiers allowed to transfer a year. 11. C-CBRN. The majority of SP with CBRN Specialist Qualifications transferring from RAF or RTR are to be transferred to the ME (Cbt) Career Stream provided their transfer to the RE is endorsed by the RE Transfer Board. These SP are exclusive to the overall annual quota of 60. See PPN 19-09 for further details on CBRN transfers. Management after Transfer 12. Onward Management and Promotion.

  • MILITARY INTELLIGENCE PB 34-09-2 Volume 35 Number 2 April - June 2009
    MIPB April - June 2009 PB 34-O9-2 Operations in OEF Afghanistan FROM THE EDITOR In this issue, three articles offer perspectives on operations in Afghanistan. Captain Nenchek dis- cusses the philosophy of the evolving insurgent “syndicates,” who are working together to resist the changes and ideas the Coalition Forces bring to Afghanistan. Captain Beall relates his experiences in employing Human Intelligence Collection Teams at the company level in both Iraq and Afghanistan. Lieutenant Colonel Lawson provides a look into the balancing act U.S. Army chaplains as non-com- batants in Afghanistan are involved in with regards to Information Operations. Colonel Reyes discusses his experiences as the MNF-I C2 CIOC Chief, detailing the problems and solutions to streamlining the intelligence effort. First Lieutenant Winwood relates her experiences in integrating intelligence support into psychological operations. From a doctrinal standpoint, Lieutenant Colonels McDonough and Conway review the evolution of priority intelligence requirements from a combined operations/intelligence view. Mr. Jack Kem dis- cusses the constructs of assessment during operations–measures of effectiveness and measures of per- formance, common discussion threads in several articles in this issue. George Van Otten sheds light on a little known issue on our southern border, that of the illegal im- migration and smuggling activities which use the Tohono O’odham Reservation as a corridor and offers some solutions for combined agency involvement and training to stem the flow. Included in this issue is nomination information for the CSM Doug Russell Award as well as a biogra- phy of the 2009 winner.
