About CTR/CTM, just remember this...
CTR's operate the gear.
CTM's fix and maintain it.
As we say in the fleet: "choose your rate, choose your fate"

While the CT community covers the Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) side of the house, IS's cover the more traditional intelligence side. These guys work mostly on shore sites, but there are a few attached to ships as well. They'll cover mostly what we call "All-source" intelligence. They get the big picture of things like historical trends in the area, politics, ect. Think of it kind of like a jack of all trades/master of none. IS's also do a lot of briefs for various folks as well. So keep in mind that power point and public speaking can play a big role in their career.

What degree would you recommend to compliment a CTR to better himself for a civilian job?
