LOL Bob you got it a bit cornfused, it's the Marines where everyone is a rifleman. Your son will go into basic training which teaches the basics. Then he will attend advanced individual training (AIT). The Army breaks down mechanics a bit different too. You have light wheel (63B) and heavy (63S). Unfortunately they are not readily transferable job skills because all lower unit mechanics are allowed to do is trouble shoot and change components. As a company (Co), battalion (Bn) or support level mechanic they don't get to rebuild engines or tranny's. Major component rebuilds are done a depot level shops by civilian employees. Army goes from crew/operator level (very low) and includes per during and after ops check and services. The crew/operator also assists the mechanics when their vehicle is being worked on. CO and Bn level mechanics do minor repairs, perform services on vehicles and assist support level mechanics with major componant replacement. Support mechanics can do some things like change a head gasket.
