Snakedriver77 Posted February 13, 2018 Posted February 13, 2018 Can someone give me a break down of the course? Length, what you do on a daily basis, etc? Do you stay in a barracks, squad bay, or just drive to work each day? Thanks. 3 Quote
LuckyFool117 Posted February 13, 2018 Posted February 13, 2018 I as well am interested on how this portion of training is cunducted. Quote
Dmurray Posted February 13, 2018 Posted February 13, 2018 Currently WOBC is split in two parts. WOBC A is three weeks and happens after WOCS before SERE. WOBC B is three weeks after your advancedairframe course. You will have PT in the morning followed by a.m classes, lunch, and p.m. classes. You will be living in your house or apartment by then and will be driving to PT/ class every day. 1 Quote

I could of sworn I heard people going to SERE prior to WOBC A. Quote
mdeneso Posted February 14, 2018 Posted February 14, 2018 I havent heard of anyone going to sere before WOBC. The course is pretty laid back and not difficult at all. Covers some of the same classes you get in WOCS and some basic aviation maintenance and supply, theres an M9 range, and airfield tour. Most days you are out a little early. 1 Quote

Luofynerd Posted February 17, 2018 Posted February 17, 2018 My bud just graduated WOCS a few(3-4) weeks ago and is already in SERE. Ill ask him when hes done. Quote
Tanner37 Posted March 9, 2018 Posted March 9, 2018 WOBC is cake man, all pretty simple stuff but the days can get long with all the briefings and classes. I just got out of SERE a couple days ago and I've never heard of anyone skipping WOBC Quote
StockTrader Posted March 9, 2018 Posted March 9, 2018 Does it depend on the bubble you get caught in? I could of sworn I heard people going to SERE prior to WOBC A.Probably right around the time i was waiting for WOBC is when the rumors started flying around. There was a group of 20 of us that had a 6-7 month hold for WOBC after WOCS. It never happened and we had to wait it out at honor, but the rumor of it happening took off like wild fire. 1 Quote
Dmurray Posted March 9, 2018 Posted March 9, 2018 Bubbles are definitely fewer and shorter now. A group of us had a 10 week bubble from WOCS to WOBC last year. Other than that Ive heard of a couple instances of 3-4 weeks from primary to Advanced. Quote
krustchinsky Posted March 9, 2018 Posted March 9, 2018 B CO has been telling us it's days to a week at most now between primary and advanced. The training pipeline is being optimized drastically around here. I graduated WOCS on the 22nd of February and my WOBC is supposed to start on the 9th of April. But some people started WOBC the next day after graduation. Quote
V22GUNNER Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 Yea no bubbles anymore, we selected a couple of weeks ago on a Thursday and we all started the next Tuesday. Quote
wheelsup Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 There are no bubbles, but the problem is theres only so many slots for whatever phase of training is next. Bubbles are inevitable given the amount of warrants coming through. You may get through wobc dunker sere quickly, but primary classes are already backed up since they can only put about 25 warrants per class and theres only 2 classes starting a month. Theres about 70ish currently waiting for primary and every other Sunday another sere class filled with warrants graduates... Quote
Thedude Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 Bubbles will always come and go. I had almost three months between SERE and primary and another three between selection and advanced. 1 Quote
Sabell44 Posted April 5, 2018 Posted April 5, 2018 When waiting for WOBC, where are you typically stashed/ What are you assigned to do? Listed on my registration form under "First unit assignment" is UNCW. That's a college from what I can find. Thanks 1 Quote
ElJay Posted April 5, 2018 Posted April 5, 2018 Youre B Cos baby. Youll inprocess after WOCS and be assigned to a detail. Most of my class got honors. Quote
