Do you think that the skills I chosed are the bare minimum that a fresh from MP/SF training would have? And what levels do you belive the "average" (not the rookie) soldier or airman have in related skills? 10 to 13?

Average serving professional soldiers in a country where that is regarded as a career, not just a short period as a conscript, will ideally have skill 12 in Soldier (average airmen skill 12 in Airman, etc.) and skill 8-12 in secondary to tertiary skills, with most of them around 10-11. If career professionals don't manage professional level in their primary skill, there's probably something wrong with the military they are serving in.

Dedicated, smart or long-serving members of any branch of the military are not unlikely to be skill 13, distinguishing them from their ordinary skill 12 peers and the subpar skill 10-11 rookies or screwballs. Skill 14+ are experts, probably senior enlisted people, who may teach training courses on whatever they have skill 14+ at.
