You might have nailed it. Tech school training is at Keesler, or was anyway. The AFSC was just shut down.

Does this sound like your job?

Tech controllers called themselves "jack of all trades, master of none," with the basic duty description of "operates, monitors, secures, and controls the physical, data link, network, and transport layers of garrison and tactical communications-computer systems, encompassing local and wide area networks, end-to-end telecommunications and circuit switching systems, long-haul transmission, and the global information grid; intoperforms, coordinates, and supervises their design, configuration, operation, restoration and improvements; analyzes their capabilities and performance, identifies problems and takes corrective action; operates cryptographic equipment; fabricates cable assemblies; performs C-CS control facility quality assurance evaluation; (and) directs and makes operational adjustments to C-CS equipment."

She did get "air" into it though.

Yes, the actual job title was Telecommunications Control Systems, 307x0 commonly called Tech Control, but it was changed and absorbed into other AFSCs over the years and the most recent transition rolled virtually all telecommunications related AFSCs into eleven cyberspace support specialties (3DXXX).

This was the Squadron patch that I wore overseas. The Squadron does not exist anymore.
