Army 19D · Cavalry Scout
In the Army, you spoke a specific language, and it's the one you know. Civilian hiring managers don't speak it. We bridge that gap for you.

The Army describes 19D Cavalry Scout as the eyes and ears on the field: gathering information about enemy positions, vehicles, weapons, and activity so commanders can make informed decisions about how to move troops. On a civilian resume that becomes observation, reporting, and decision support. O*NET links the code mainly to management and training roles, which is why those appear among this page's matches.

Copy from your NCOERs or just type what you did as a Cavalry Scout Soldier, plus any real numbers.
We translate everything into civilian language and build the whole resume. Nothing invented.

I served on active duty in the U.S. Air Force from 2001 to 2009 as a 2W0 Munitions Systems specialist and a C-130 Loadmaster. I served in the Air Force, not the Army, so this page is built from O*NET and BLS data rather than my own memories. The problem is the same in every branch: your experience is valuable, and it has to be written in the civilian employer's language.
