MichaelRyanSD Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Is there anyway to find out when the 6 week courses are held? I heard they aren't very often, like two in the fall and one in the spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pipedream Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 I'm shipping out on June 1, in 2 weeks to Fort Jackson, with a June 8 training date. Wayy quicker than I expected! I guess it's better than waiting around for months. Wow that is fast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, I think it's better being this soon. I won't be stressing for 2+ months and I'll get it out of the way. Kinda like ripping a band aid off?

Creep0321 Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 via Imgflip Meme MakerHaha as of now, I'm the opposite, 9 month wait for WOCS (voluntarily) and 3 day turn around for WOBC (obviously subject to change). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The WOBC date you get is just a report to Bco date really. Unless you're guard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you're guard Haha I figured, and honestly that's fine by me. I'll be leaving my wife and newborn 2 weeks after he is born for WOCS. A little bit of time after to get them settled at Rucker is not the worst thing in the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StockTrader Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 So what exactly is accomplished the 5 months between WOCS and WOBC? Also, Is WOBC 10 weeks long?Right now it feels like our schedule gets juggled daily. I was told that my SERE and Dunker will be done before WOBC now. Usually its WOBC, Dunker, SERE. I also got put on funeral detail, which is typically done after SERE. The plus side is that they are saying myself and those with the same schedule will roll straight from WOBC to Primary. WOBC is about 3 weeks long although I think the schedule says 5? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Signal2rotary Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Well, our dfac personnel are doing field training, so they were set up serving steak and eggs at the barracks. Hmmm, hopefully that's a good sign. Going to walk over to the office in a few and check the list. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the worse place in the world but it's also very poorly run. You're just another body there. Just don't get your hopes up and roll with the punches; you'll be much less frustrated that way. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
