GT are you asking about the 18C or an EOD Tec assigned to support an SF element?

Everybody who is assigned to the team does everything else everybody does with a focus on their MOS.

Everybody else non-18 series attached to the team is attached because they bring a skill set required for an assigned requirement. It could be a cook - research cooks here and you'll find one who won medals fighting with an A Team. But he was not attached to the team to be a door kicker. He was attached to be a cook - and then did what was required - as all are expected to do.

Any time SF asks for an EOD Tech for a special requirement we will be looking for a good one.

So as Wet Dog said focus on the 25 meter target - if you become a good EOD Tech - and are picked to be attached to an SF element it will be because you're an EOD Tech. After that it's on you to show them how good a Tech you are first - and then help out as needed.
