Supply and Services (CMF 92) Career Progression Plan
Chapter 1 Duties
The Quartermaster Corps performs supply and services functions for the Army for all classes of
supply except medical and ammunition. The Quartermaster Corps is responsible for Supply
Support, Field Services, Aerial Delivery Support, Materiel and Distribution Management,
Combat Developments, Doctrine Training and Professional Development of all three
components, civilian personnel, Allies in Quartermaster proponent and common skills areas.
Note. All Quartermaster CMFs and MOSs are open to male and female Soldiers; however,
DCPC coding of positions precludes assignment of females to certain combat arms units.
Chapter 2 Transformation
The U.S. Army Quartermaster Corps is the nation’s oldest combat service support branch.
Conversion to operational Army units was one of the most significant changes in our Armed
Forces since World War II. As modern warfare increases in technological sophistication, speed,
and complexity—so must our logistics systems change. The underlying duties and functions of
the Quartermaster Enlisted Soldier will not change; how we do them will. We will move from a
supply-based system that relies on logistics mass, to a system which relies more heavily on
information supremacy and distribution agility and exploits improvements in logistics velocity
and automation. To provide continued support to the Army’s Brigade Combat Teams;
Quartermaster Soldiers must continuously refocus themselves for this new and evolving
environment and apply the same innovation, teamwork, battle focus, selfless service and
professionalism that made us so successful during the past 241 years. The Quartermaster
Corps requires Soldiers who are technically and tactically competent and NCOs who are, first
and foremost leaders of Soldiers. Noncommissioned Officer must be multidimensional
logisticians that are technically and tactically proficient in logistics operations at all echelons,
tactical, operational, and strategic, not only in an Army environment but joint and international.
Noncommissioned officers must also seek out the tough assignments and training to be
prepared to perform at their current and next rank. NCOs must also ensure that the younger
Quartermaster Soldiers can perform their individual MOS tasks and constantly be a role model.
To ensure the Quartermaster Corps transforms with the Army successfully, we need all
Quartermasters working together, Soldiers, NCOs, Warrant Officers, Officers and Civilians
across the total force. In the history of our Army, no major operation has ever failed because
Quartermaster failed to provide the right supplies, at the right time and place, and in the right
quantities. Quartermaster Soldiers are expected to continue these traditions as our Army
Sustainment transitions to fully auditable operations through Global Command and Control
System – Army (GCCS-A) . Demanding assignments for CMF 92 include but are not limited to
Special Operations Command (SOCOM), Theater Special Operations Command (TSOC), Joint
Special Operations Command (JSOC), and United States Army Command (USASOC). There
are numerous assignment opportunities within USASOC to include 1

due to mission and training requirements. These positions should be considered as career
enhancing assignments. Career Manager/Development NCO, Training with Industry, Special
Duty Assignments such as Enlisted Aid (EA), Inspector General (IG), Equal Opportunity
Advisor (EOA), Sexual Assault Response Coordinator (SARC), Recruiter, First Sergeant,
Platoon Sergeant, AIT Platoon Sergeant, Instructor and Writer, Drill Sergeant Linguist positions,
