July '10 OBLC

Published

Hey folks,

I was just curious if any direct commissionies attending the July OBLC course has gotten orders yet? If not, have you heard when we may be getting them? The lease I currently have is up at the end of May so I'm hoping to have a move date relatively soon.

Just in case, I sent email to Maj Hairston, Make sure about that...

thanks to letting me know...

Hey guys---recent ROTC commissionee here. I'll be attending July OBLC as well.

The government (or at least the Army) books tickets through Carlson-Wagonlit. But when you got your orders, as long as you didn't request POV (Privately Owned Vehicle) travel, then your flight itinerary should have either come along with your orders, or been sent shortly thereafter. If you're driving you have to fill out a DD-1610 form----but I don't think you do if you're flying.

Bummer your recruiter told you to buy your ticket yourself. What a dork...

I met MAJ Hairston when I was in D.C. on Cadet training last summer---she's super busy, but hopefully she'll get back to you.

See you at Fort Sam!

^^ I didn't pay for my ticket, I just booked ticket...anyhow, I talked with Maj Hairston, and she told that I can book by myself, not necessary to book ticket by recruiter, and every travel expense will cover by military, That's what she said.

And my ticket is ready...so See you in TX

Awesome. Glad that worked out for you. She's been in a while so I'm sure that info is good. See you there!
