The Army Captain's Career Course (CCC) is the second developmental course attended by officers following their commissioning. Generally, officers attend the course immediately after promotion to Captain and between their 4th and 7th years of service.
Depending on program and background, the course is three, four, or five weeks long. NOTE: Individuals in this category are typically rated/designated military aviators who have previously served on active duty as officers in other branches of the U.S. armed forces.

The active duty intel officers I spoke with made it perfectly clear that they deploy as much as anyone in the Air Force. And they deploy to combat zones.
Intelligence officers provide a service that is crucial for our national defense. These officers develop and execute plans, policies, and procedures that facilitate intelligence functions. Some intelligence officers specialize in one form of intelligence, such as imagery, signals, or human intelligence.
The Army intelligence process consists of four steps (plan and direct, collect, produce, and disseminate) and two continuing activities (analyze and assess).
