What makes a strong 11B duty description?

Infantry duty descriptions should reflect direct combat leadership responsibilities, physical readiness standards, and the ability to train and lead Soldiers in complex environments. Use present tense, action verbs, and avoid accomplishment language. Focus on what the Soldier does daily, not what they achieved.

Tips for writing 11B duty descriptions

  • Use present tense throughout — 'Leads' not 'Led', 'Supervises' not 'Supervised'
  • Describe responsibilities not accomplishments — save achievements for the bullet sections
  • Reference specific systems, formations, and doctrinal terms relevant to infantry
  • Scale scope to rank — SGT leads a team, SSG leads a squad, SFC leads a platoon
  • Include training responsibilities — infantry NCOs are always training their Soldiers
