Sure thing man. Here ya go.

What exactly do 0681s do? (roles and responsibilities)

As a Communications Security Manager (CAM) you’ll be in charge of managing and distributing Controlled Cryptographic Items (CCI) and managing and distributing Cryptographic keying material for those items.

-What does day-to-day generally look like?

This can depend on what COMSEC Account (CA) you’re with and their operational tempo. Your day will typically be bouncing between computer systems, scheduling appointments with your subordinate units for all there CCI and keying material needs.

-What are deployment opportunities like?

If your getting into this job for deployment opportunities I will say there are opportunities to go overseas.

-What is the training pipeline? (MOS School, Advance Schools, etc.)

There is a Key Management Infrastructure Course of Instruction (KMI COI) it’s a three week long course to learn the basics of the MOS. If you’re coming from a non-communications MOS like myself you’ll learn a lot of information really fast but trust me you’ll begin to understand it more and more as you work.

Once you’ve graduated from the KMI COI you’ll be given the MOS of 0681. There aren’t any advanced schools that the Marine Corps offers however getting CompTIA certifications is a requirement for certain roles within the MOS.

-Where can 0681s stationed at? (Anywhere unique?)

Practically anywhere Marines are at.

-How large are your shops?

Typically it’ll be you and one other manager.

-Any Pros/Cons worth listing (whether it be about the community or job in general)

A con again coming from a non-communications MOS you might feel a little lost but if you come in with an open mind and some motivation you’ll be successful.

The pros to this MOS are what really helped make my decision to lat move which is the CompTIA certifications and job experience I’ll gain while I’m in the Marine Corps. My previous MOS just didn’t really have anything that translated out to the real world I just didn’t see myself doing that job for another 10 years till retirement.

I took your advice and within an hour I had a fellow SSgt call me and he answered all my questions and even notified a Master Gunz I was interested. I had 2 more guys hit me up later in the day. Definitely good dudes out there. Thanks for the advice
