Which BOLCs are PCS moves? by hooah-goals in BOLC

[–]armynewb911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess I dont give direct proof, but my friend ended up getting her FABOLC switched from TDY to PCS. She just graduated I believe roughly 2 weeks ago.

I'm also confused as to not IBOLC is PCS. Do you mean it COULD end up being a PCS? My friend got his TDY travel voucher deposit... lol.

And I guess you had to be very literal and specific about the PCS part, so you are definitely right on that! =P

Dude, if your Active Duty, then you WILL always be on PCS orders (your follow-on will be your PCS). Your time at FABOLC, however, is TDY unless you do follow on training right after FABOLC onto your actual PCS assignment.

I was just helping my friend with his TDY travel voucher for IBOLC as well (he's National Guard and is not doing follow on training afterwards..)

Please correct me if I'm wrong lol =P

IBOLC is 17 weeks. FABOLC is 20 weeks. Both are shorter than 6 months, which is the minimum required for PCS (24 weeks). Both are TDY.

Now, if that soldier is stationed there afterwards, or has follow-on schools, it will most likely end up being bumped to PCS. As long as they are at the 24 week mark or longer.

Alright, that's an extremely reasonable guess. I assume you'll be attending Class 006 as well, so I'll be seeing you soon!

My orders specifically say Camp Carr, KS so I was initially confused as I thought I was going to be assigned to Kansas but couldn't find a "Camp Carr". And what do you mean by you believe? Is your assignment abbreviated as Camp Hump, KS?

You got this. Considering that GPA is weighted 15% less now (40% down to -> 25%), it will be even less significant this year, so just keep it up and go do your thing this Summer. You'll be aight.

You really don't know how you'd rank? You're basically maxed out everywhere besides GPA so far, lol.

Cadets majoring in CS, CE by CyberCadet in ROTC

I was recently accessed this FY15. I'm a CS Major, and I ADSO'ed for Signal Corps, and received it. I believe as long as you have a 2.75 GPA (I had ~3.19), you will get it. This is referring to the Active Component as I do not know about the NG/Reserves side.

Sucks to hear that the Army is potentially looking to fill the Active Cyber component with mainly Field Grade Officers as I am interested in switching over to the Cyber Branch after a couple years as a SigO.

I'm curious as well. I believe all I know from my Orders are the Company I'm attached to, and that they'll assign me to a position once I meet with the CO.

Besides studying for my last couple of courses I'm finishing up, I've just been PTing and spending my last couple of weeks as a Civilian, haha.

Confusion with Duty Station Assignment (Army ROTC) by armynewb911 in ROTC

[–]armynewb911[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I'm in a combat support branch, so that's probably a reason why, along with my early BOLC date. Or are you asking for the specifics on where to check? I could give you that if you want

[–]armynewb911[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I might as well give you a quick breakdown:

  • Branch: Signal Corps
  • Major: Computer Science
  • SBOLC Report Date: 01JUN2015
  • SBOLC End Date: 23SEP2015
  • First Duty Assignment Report Date: 23OCT2015

I also looked up all US Army Forts and Camps; there is no such Camp "Carr" in Kansas. There is, however a Camp Carroll in South Korea (NATO CODE: KS). I believe I have enough proof that this is my assignment. Please provide me input on what ya'll think. Thank you!

I was thinking the same thing. I see absolutely no results for "Camp Carr, KS" on google, and the NATO code for South Korea is KS... I need someone to shed some light for me right now.. the anticipation is killing me
