'''By specialty''' points into Camp Ritchie’s training tracks — the intelligence specialties counted in [[By The Numbers/Eight Week Courses by Specialties]] and described in the faculty section legend.<br />
<br />
These are '''training specialties''', not a complete postwar occupational index. Soldier pages may list a specialty or class section when the roster recorded one; many profiles still lack that field.<br />
