    you believe wrong

    when you go int security forces, you are in security forces

    2. now there are two other AFSC's that security forces can cross train into, starting thier 2nd enlistment

    1. K9

    2. combat arms instructor

    combat arms - are firing range instructors -- they run the firing ranges and teach marksmanship

    but again, both are something you can only do after you have reenlisted

    Note: New enlistees are not eligible for the A (Dog Handler) or B (Firing Range Instructor) suffixes. In order to be eligible for either of these sub-specialties, one must be in the rank of Senior Airman (E-4), or above, and agree to re-enlist.
