January OBLC Army Nurse Corps

Hey all,

Just wondering if anyone here is supposed to attend OBLC this upcoming January (2009). Not 100% at this point whether I will be or not, but figured it wouldn't hurt to start trying to make some contacts. My commissioning package was supposed to meet the board in August but I guess there were some fixes that needed to be made so I was placed on the back burner. Was told that my package is supposed to be before the board today though and should hear back by next week (pretty exited right now). My wife is currently active duty AF Nurse Corps, but is in the final stage of securing an interservice transfer to the Army Nurse Corps and we both hope to attend the January OBLC class.

Hope to hear from some of our future classmates soon.

Are you joining the Army Reserve? My packet is suppose to go to the Oct board, and I was hoping to get into the January class.

Re: January OBLC Army Nurse Corps

Hi All! Congrats on your commission. I have a question and since I couldn't figure out how to start a new thread here I thought I'd attach it..... sorry! Anyway, I am planning on joining the Army Reserves. I have a BSN and am presently a FNP student. I work ft as a ER nurse. My question is... what should I expect the reserves recruiter to offer me and what should I ask for...... reasons for me to do this... the economy sux and I can't afford to live anymore on my pay, I am raising 4 of my 7 kids still and it pains me to realize I can't even put food on the table that well anymore. Also, how long is OBLC? thanks in advance
