The Department of the Army (DA) has announced devel opment of 39 Career Man agement Fields (CMF) de signed to improve career planning and management of enlisted personnel Each CMF maps out a ca reer progression pattern and makes career promotion op portunities within that field more identifiable The new system increases the oppor tunity for a soldier to com pete for promotion by en abling him to maintain profi ciency within his Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) and to plan his ca reer within an MOS-related career pattern. Scheduled to become effec tive July 1. 1970. the CMF system has regrouped re lated MOSs into 39 fields, each based on compatibility of skills and aptitudes, occu pational similarity and or ganizational unity. In the re grouping process, no MOS was revised, created or de leted. Each OJF, which can be considered similar to a branch for an officer or war rant officer, is self-sustain ing and provides for orderly career progression in both MOS and grade. All but two CMFs allow promotion through grade E9. This will enable a soldier to stay within a field and de velop proficiency within that field. In the two CMFs in which progression to E9 is not possible (they peak out at grade E8), provisions have been made to enable qualified soldiers to achieve grade E9 through retraining in a re lated CMF based on individ ual desires, qualifications and needs of the Army. I)A Pamphlet 611-7, Ca reer Planning for Army En listed Personnel, to be pub lished before the end of Fis cal Year 1970, will describe each CMF career progression pattern and will carry im plementing instructions for field use. ?COURT Continued from pace 1 court Johnny Woods, Route 1, Red Springs, forcible trespass, two years in the lloke County Jail, assigned to work under the supervision of the North Carolina Department of Correction.
