12B Combat Engineer - Construction and Engineering Specialist

National Guard OMD

Job Description

Combat Engineers are essential to mission success by assisting their fellow Soldiers in tackling unpredictable environments. As a member of an Army National Guard Combat Engineer team, you'll design and build bridges, roadways, secure perimeters, and tactical firing systems, as well as detect and safely neutralize mines and other dangers to safeguard your team and repel the enemy.

Job Duties
• Construct fighting positions, fixed/floating bridges, obstacles, and defensive positions
