Which SSIC does NOT belong to Military Personnel, Telecommunications, Operations and Readiness, or Logistics?

• A. 1000
• B. 2000
• C. 9000
• D. 3000

Answer: (C)

SSICs are organized by broad subject areas, with the first digit (or leading block) indicating the general field. The four categories you listed map to major SSIC blocks that start with 1, 2, 3, and 4. Any SSIC that comes from a different major block doesn’t fit among those four areas. The correct choice is the one that belongs to a different major SSIC group, i.e., a code from the 9xxx range, which sits outside the Military Personnel, Telecommunications, Operations and Readiness, and Logistics blocks. The remaining options fall into the four specified areas, so they do belong.
