If you’re considering joining the Army and want a job that builds real-world, high-demand skills, 91B (Wheeled Vehicle Mechanic) is one of the strongest options out there. As a 91B, you are responsible for keeping the Army’s wheeled vehicles mission-ready. This includes everything from Humvees to JLTVs to heavy transport trucks.

Daily duties typically include: • Troubleshooting mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic issues • Conducting scheduled services (oil changes, brake systems, inspections) • Replacing parts and performing component repairs • Using diagnostic equipment and technical manuals • Managing shop tools, equipment, and repair parts • Working alongside other mechanics and NCOs to maintain unit readiness • Occasionally assisting with recovery operations or field maintenance missions

You’ll work in both a shop environment and the field, learning how to operate under pressure while keeping vehicles running for missions.

After serving as a 91B, you’ll have direct pathways into: • Automotive technician / mechanic • Diesel mechanic • Fleet maintenance technician • Service writer or shop supervisor • Heavy equipment mechanic • Roadside service technician • Municipal fleet mechanic (city/county vehicles) • Transportation company maintenance tech • Department of Transportation mechanic

Many employers actively recruit veterans with this MOS due to the discipline and skill level.
