TacJobs – US Army Direct Commissioning Program

The US military has been direct commissioning Chaplains as well as legal and medical professionals for decades.

The National Defense Authorization Act of 2019 (NDAA 2019) gave the armed services authorities to directly commission officers up to the rank of Colonel, expanding the career fields eligible.

For example, MAJ Chris Young is the first to direct commission into the Army Acquisition Corps. He took his Oath of Office Aug. 16 at Fort Moore.
