when i was at b-36 training the cambodian army the 5th group pulled out of vietnam, myself and other s.f. who were in the special projects were still in country, when it came time for me to return home i was offered another stripe to staff sgt. e-6 to stay, some of the guys did, i didnt.

i have never heard of s.f. recruiting an mos, but that doesnt mean it didnt happen.

to this day i don't know the route s.f. officers took to become qualified. i suspect they dont know the avenues the enlisted men took and add to that the fact that things changed due to prevailing conditions and s.f. needs a person should be careful about making generalizations that was not with in their personal experience.
