 My name is Staff Sergeant Joseph Hex. I belong to Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point's EOD section. In a nutshell, we render safe and neutralized explosive threats. Our job is to give commanders and the battle space a safer place to operate and maneuver our forces across the battle space and in CONUS as well. That's essentially, you know, right now, Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point team that I belong to, we help public safety bomb techs, public safety servants operate in a safe environment. Thinking about kind of all the opportunities I would have had in my previous job and then leveraging that off the opportunities I have in EOD, it was a no-brainer for me. I knew that career progression is something that EOD techs seem to harp on and we really do. Now that I've been doing the job for some time, I understand that you can always grow in this job field. And not to say that you can't grow in your specific MOSes that you currently reside in within the Marine Corps, however you have a larger opportunity in the EOD field. I felt in my previous MOS, you know, once I went to my advanced course and my Germans course was pretty much done with my career advancement, aside from training guys and going through that piece. As you saw today, you know, I'm training my team member one day. The next day I could be, you know, in Albuquerque learning about nuclear weapons. You know, the following week I could be back in Florida running through advanced IEDs. It's just a multitude of opportunities that you had coming over to EOD. So in this requirements, we're going to need you to have a first-class PFT and CFT. You need to score a 110 or higher in your GT for your ASVAT, but you will need to pass a tape test in the score at 12. We are looking for highly qualified individuals that are willing to come over to this job field and provide an unselfish service to both the Marine Corps, the Joint Force, and Public Safety Service.
