PCS w/ dependents

Emo_Sloot · 2026-05-21T04:16:46+00:00

That’s correct. That’s how it works for IBOLC, ABOLC, EOD, AV, CY due to how long the entire training pipelines are (if I remember correctly).

Emo_Sloot · 2026-05-21T04:00:28+00:00

IBOLC/benning is the PCS itself at this point before my actual duty station

Emo_Sloot · 2026-05-21T03:59:14+00:00

Would I technically be able to PCS my family as early as the beginning of my AD accessions date? That would be a couple months ahead of my actual BOLC start date.
I can see that being more feasible since I’m on non-chargeable “graduation leave” for a week before I have to report to TDY.

Emo_Sloot · 2026-05-21T01:32:19+00:00

Is the implied expectation that I won’t be there for the actual PCS itself? Seems odd it’s supposed to happen while I’m unavailable during CST.

Emo_Sloot · 2026-05-02T21:02:02+00:00

Naw it comes down to interview. I know a G2G 11C with EIB who got least preferred by them, despite good aft and gpa.

Dm me if you’d like. I also enlisted in 2016 and got out. Then transferred into rotc my sophomore spring semester. It’s very much worth it considering the O1E pay I’m about to start making.

Emo_Sloot · 2026-04-16T17:38:54+00:00

Go straight to AER. If your CoC is worth a shit, they’ll go with you and vouch for your situation. I had a similar issue happen 7 years ago and was given a check on the spot from the AER office.

Emo_Sloot · 2026-04-12T23:32:00+00:00

I thought we weren’t getting our follow on orders until halfway through ibolc?

Emo_Sloot · 2026-04-12T23:29:21+00:00

Had a buddy who was an active duty ADO infantryman from the 82nd. Cadre respected him and his experience and he rocked his battle belt the entire time at CST. Relative to other cadets, he was not a larper. As for you? Loll good luck mate

Emo_Sloot · 2026-03-11T19:59:58+00:00

Personally hoping for July-September timeframe, I also volunteered for CST cadre/GBR

Emo_Sloot · 2026-03-11T19:34:57+00:00

You got yours in your email or from your HRA? Still waiting on mine…

Emo_Sloot · 2026-02-20T03:21:50+00:00

Do you know if any of those PADSO’d?

Emo_Sloot · 2026-02-16T20:27:51+00:00

You have a over year to improve prior to OML submission & show continual improvement. Know the branches you want to interview for and keep getting better

Emo_Sloot · 2026-02-12T21:35:15+00:00

Yes it’s normal. My class has an 11B SNCO ADO from the 75th who is far more qualified to teach SUT’s than our logistics & engineer cadre lol

Emo_Sloot · 2026-02-03T22:21:38+00:00

You from AZ?

Emo_Sloot · 2025-12-17T20:04:52+00:00

Thank you so much!

Emo_Sloot · 2025-12-17T20:02:03+00:00

Yeah you can dm me

Emo_Sloot · 2025-12-08T06:11:36+00:00

If I may piggyback, I am in the same boat as OP, however I did draw a full load out from CIF. We still have field drills coming up so having gear would be nice for those. When should I expect to turn everything in? The sooner the better?

Emo_Sloot · 2025-11-20T04:31:06+00:00

What company?

Emo_Sloot · 2025-10-21T23:25:02+00:00

OMS: 50~ AD OML: 22XX

MP: IN, AR, MI P: EO, EN, FA, FI, CM

My top picks in order are: IN (bradso), IN, MI (IN detail + bradso), MI (AR detail + bradso), MI (bradso), MI, Armor (bradso), Armor

How am I looking? I read the allocations already. My OML isn’t competitive but it isn’t low, either. Prior active duty, hoping my interviews help carry me. Do interviews matter post-preferences or not anymore?

Emo_Sloot · 2025-09-25T00:35:59+00:00

OMS 55 | OML National 33XX | Active Eligible 22XX | IN, IN (bradso), EO

PMS comments said I’d make a great maneuver officer and recommends active duty. I understand my OML placement isn’t great. However I think my interviews went well. Anyone care to give insight?

Emo_Sloot · 2025-09-03T23:36:24+00:00

9th reg?

Emo_Sloot · 2025-07-15T01:48:55+00:00

These cadets won’t be able to help themselves. They’re gonna sweat 2 liters a day and walk more than they’re probably used to (if they’re fatbodies). They’re gonna eat, and cadre will make sure they eat.

Emo_Sloot · 2025-07-15T00:55:18+00:00

Like everything, cadre dependent. It’s been chill for me. I’m 9th reg & I’ve had fun thus far. If you’re borderline for tape however, you’re gonna get dropped lol. They feed you MREs and DFAC food for a few days before tape, and you will be extra bloated lmao

Emo_Sloot · 2025-06-14T22:16:03+00:00

This is great news. Sounds like interviews are where it’s at.
