@@angelmakimaUnfortunately there is no longer a MOS 25M in the army. It has been transitined to 25V and then to 46V. I am one of the last 25M in currently still in the army, and yes, it is/was the coolest MOS in the army!

I'm not sure if this is the same mos, but I spent 3 years in active duty infantry... When I got home I got a degree and was working in commercial photography. As such I was always shooting pics when in the guard... Word got out that I was a photographer and the PR unit asked if I had film that I wanted to be processed in exchange for their use... No problem. So much of my work was either products or highly cinematic with models or actors (originally wanted to work in film) so a lot of my pics were very "Johnny Hooah" looking pics so a bunch were used for the newspaper and kept on file... Less than a month later I got a call at the studio from the head of the PR unit asking if I would transfer and reclass... They were even talking about deploying overseas. Man... I just couldn't leave my buddies. Especially if something happened and they got deployed, I would feel like crap... But she was talking about a promotion since I already had a degree and years of experience... I really kind of regret not taking a chance.

Public Affairs Mass Communication Specialists (46Ss) are the on-air journalists. Visual Information Specialists (46Vs) are the behind-the-scenes camera operators and digital editors.

No, 46S edit and operate cameras too. 46V take the same initial course as 46S but take an additional one month course. 46V usually nowadays just document things they don't release or make products

@@Anthony-uu2tkthat is far from the truth I've filmed and produced about 80-90% of all my products. As a 25V/46V you're in a very small unit like an MPAD

The civilian gentleman on the left was my instructor at the school house 10 years ago. Hope you’re doing good!

I started as a 25P back in '92. AIT was at Lowry AFB back then. I think that MOS changed to 25V at the end of '93. I retired in 2016 as a 25Z. All through my time in the Army, the idea of combining with Public Affairs was always TALKED ABOUT and debated. I still hear about some growing pains from people I know who are still in or recently retired. But IMHO this should have happened about 20+ years ago.

I am currently in the process of joining the military. I really am looking to enlist in this MOS, but I am curious if it’s a job that is hard to get? I am very passionate for photography and I don’t see myself doing anything else. I was wondering how long I would have to wait for this MOS to be available if it isn’t when I go to MEPS? Just an estimate would be great 👍

46S actually release information Victors are not allowed to release information. Both MOS can be in combat but Victors are usually assigned to the 82nd Airborne or another combat outfit. If you want this MOS and want to release products go 46S if you want to see action 46V but you can rarely again see action as a Sierra
