NGR 600-101 1 October 1996
(6) Warrant officers aviators become qualified to
operate a different series or model of aircraft.
8. Prior to MOS redesgnation. all warrant officers
must be either certified by the appropriate DA MOS
proponent or have creditable prior service as a warrant
officer in the requested MOS in accordance with the
standards in AR 61 1-1 12. See also paragraph 6-4 of
this regulation for exceptions during unit reorganiza-
tions.
f. MOS redesgnation will be initiated by or with the
consent of the warrant officer concerned.
(I) The action will normally be requested by the
warrant officer or unit commander in memorandum
format (see figure 6-1) through channels to the Adju-
tant General. Memorandum will include evidence of
the warrant officer's qualification for the new MOS.
This evidence will be in the form of a document from
the appropriate Department of the Army MOS propo-
nent certifying qualification in the requested MOS. For
aviation related MOS redesignation. the only docu-
ments required are a certification from a Instructor Pilot
(IP), favorably endorsed by the State Aviation Officer.
If MOS qualification is based on the warrant officer
having held the requested MOS previously, the Fed-
eral recognition order previously awarding the MOS
will be provided as evidence of MOS qualification.
(2) The State Adjutant General will either ap-
prove or forward the request for Federal recognition
board action (see fig 6-1) or disapprove the request.
Federal recognition board action is not required for
warrant officer aviators who have became qualified to
operate a different series or model of aircraft.
g- Upon the recommendation of the Federal recog-
nition board and approval of The Adjutant General, the
State will issue the MOS redesignation orders (format
370). These orders will become part of The Adjutant
General's recommendation to the Chief, National
Guard Bureau, (see fig 6-2) for issuance of perma-
nent Federal recognition in the new MOS.
h. The newly awarded MOS will become either the
primary or an additional MOS. If the new MOS be-
comes the primary designator, the MOS from which
redesignated should be awarded as an additional or
secondary MOS.
6-4. Unit reorganization
a. Warrant officers whose duty positions are
deleted or duty position MOS changed due to unit reorganization
may be assigned to a position with a different
duty MOS. Warrant officers assigned to positions
with a MOS different than their primary or additional
MOS must be certified in the new MOS by the
appropriate DA MOS proponent within two years of
assignment.
b. Certification in the new duty MOS is accomplished
through on the job training (WT) and/or satisfactory
completion of appropriate proponent school.
Federal recognition board action is required prior to
award of a new MOS. Affected warrant officers should
initiate this action to become proponent certified in the
new MOS prior to the reorganization. Failure to become
fully qualified within two years of the new duty
MOS assignment, will necessitate termination of the
warrant officer's State appointment IAW paragraph 10-
20
2a(l2)(a) this regulation, until superseded by NGR
635-1 00.
6-5. Exemption from Federal recognition
board appearance
Applicants being considered for an MOS redesigna-
tion, do not need not appear in person before the FRB
unless they or the president of the FRB so desire.
6-6. Award of an SQI, ASI, and UC
Upon determination that a warrant officer meets all of
the special requirements of AR 61 1-1 12, AR 61 1-6 and
approval of the State Adjutant General, the State OPM
will issue a Memorandum to the affected warrant officer
announcing the award of a SQVASlRlC (see sample
format at Fig 6-3).
