ArmyReenlistment.com - Attache Duty

First ...This program is only open to Active Army Soldiers.

Second ...When you join the DAS, you are AT THE NEEDS OF THE ARMY/DAS. Just because you know Spanish, doesn't mean you're going to Latin America. If DAS needs you in Moscow, you're going to learn Russian and go to Moscow.

Australia, Canada, U.K, Germany, France are kept for our DAS members that do the no-so glamorous tours, i.e., Sudan, Chad, Pakistan, Afghanistan, as a reward. If you are inquiring about the DAS to go to a specific country...WRONG ANSWER.

Third ...If you are originally from Cambodia (insert your country here) and you are now a naturalized citizen, you will NEVER be stationed in or around Cambodia. There is just a conflict of interest and DIA security would not approve of it.

Same goes if your spouse is a naturalized citizen.

Fourth ...THIS JOB IS OPEN TO ALL MOSs.

The Defense Attaché System is the best job no one knows about. The selection rate however is only 26%....translation...DAS IS ONLY LOOKING FOR THE BEST. Here are some things that can make you and your packet standout above all the rest:

1) Qualifying DLAB score (85 or higher...the higher, the better)
2) TS/SCI clearance
3) No non-US family members
4) No single parent status

(Doesn't disqualify you, but makes it harder for DAS to assign you...older kids are better than younger kids as some Embassies have TDY responsibilities.)
5) No EFMP issues

(Doesn't disqualify you, but makes it harder for me to assign you.)

6) Assignment as a Recruiter, Drill Sergeant, First Sergeant.

If you should have any more specific questions...feel free to contact me at SFC Edgar Vazquez

Good Luck...I look forward to getting/screening your packets.
