Here is an extended listing of AFSC groups. Using the above example, the AFSC X1N371E would refer to a Germanic Cryptologic Linguist who is aircrew qualified and specializes in Afrikaans. Additionally, an alpha suffix (a “shredout”) denotes positions associated with particular equipment or functions within a single specialty (an Afrikaans specialist in the Germanic linguist field would have an "E" shredout). The specific AFSC is 1 (Crypto-Linguist Specializing in a Germanic Language)įor some specialties, an alpha prefix is used to denote a special ability, skill, qualification or system designator not restricted to a single AFSC (such as "X" for an aircrew position).The career field subdivision is 3 (Cryptologic Linguist).Specific AFSC (Numeric, specialty within career field subdivision).0 – Chief Enlisted Manager (CEM) (Airmen in the grade of Chief Master Sergeant responsible for policy and direction on a broad scale, from the individual squadron to HQ USAF levels).9 – Superintendent (Airmen in the grade of Senior Master Sergeant and above, with at least 14 years of experience, responsible for broad supervision).7 – Craftsman (Airmen with many years of experience in the specialty, responsible for supervision and training).5 – Journeyman (experienced Airmen functioning as front-line technicians and initial trainers).3 – Apprentice (technical school graduates applying and expanding their job skills).1 – Helper (recruits or retrainees in technical school).Career field subdivision (Numerical, different for each).Career field (Alpha, different for each).Reporting Identifiers, typically used for Airmen in transitive status: trainees, awaiting retraining, prisoner, etc.Special Duty Identifiers, typically used for Airmen chosen for specialized jobs.The enlisted AFSC consists of five alphanumeric characters: These reduced officer AFSCs from 216 to 123 and enlisted AFSCs from 203 to 176. In October 1993, the Air Force implemented a new system of AFSCs, aligning occupations with the forcewide restructuring that was implemented under Merrill McPeak. These were 5-digit codes for example a maintenance data systems specialist was 39150 and a weather technician was 25170. After the Air Force separated from the Army in 1947, it retained the Army's system of MOS occupation codes, modifying them in 1954.
