I haven't seen any comments lately regarding the RESERVE component BOLC experience. I am still interested in learning more...since I will be heading there in November for the 4wk course. I have heard...
Kuwona, I think I answered this in an earlier post in here, but I'll restate for you. You are not authorized to go to AT until AFTER you've completed Phase II of BOLC. This is because, as far as the...
That's true. I was shocked to see that SEVERAL of the Majors/Captains/Lieutenants in my reserve unit could not even perform or execute standard drill and ceremony maneuvers (even simple commands like...
Thanks for the info! I'm beginning to lean towards flying...just to make my trip MUCH shorter. So you guys stayed in hotels on the weekends? I'm surprised they didn't put you up in the barracks on...
tt2323, Since you went to Phase 2 of BOLC this March, can you please give me details regarding your time there? I've asked in other threads, but no responses. I'll be going later this year and hope to...

Lunah, I knew you'd respond! I knew I could count on you! :yelclap: Well, I know that you went through a different class. But I imagine that the experience is similar. I'm wondering if it would even...
I am looking for information regarding the RECENT 2012 BOLC experience for Reservists. I got my commission back in Dec '11 and have done two drills with my unit so far. I began the online coursework...
I have been informed by my AMEDD recruiter that I was approved by the selection board (essentially selected) for direct commission as a 66H (MedSurg Nurse) and 1st Lt. into a local combat support...
Everything's signed...waiting on selection board (meeting tomorrow).:anbd: Fingers crossed, but I'm not really worried. I thought I had a very strong packet. Good Luck
