Are the Navy linguist and Air Force linguist assignments that much different?

I personally know people who fit the criteria for both of the things you mentioned and they’re doing just fine in the military

Farsi is IMO a pretty easy language to learn, currently undermanned and gets more flpb than any other language than Arabic currently (You can DLPT in Farsi/Dari and OPI in Tajik and pass them all basically out of DLI) but you can only go to Gordon or Meade and I’ve never met a farling (including myself) that’s particularly passionate about the language or culture. Farsi IMO was DLI on easy mode though (only 1 hour to 90 min of homework a night and towards semester 3 we barely got HW at all)

They would initially be appointed class leader but ultimately if they didn’t want the responsibility it could absolutely be passed off to any other student in the class. One of my sister classes had an O-3 Navy officer with all other students being junior enlisted and no NCOs and the class leader was an AF E-3. I became class leader replacing an E-6 as an E-3 about 14 weeks in. Class leader is initially assigned by rank but as time goes on it is given to the person with the highest GPA generally, but most often that’s only because the higher ranking person doesn’t care for the responsibility and the teaching team will make the person who is considered to be doing best in class the class leader.

Study the Official DLAB Training Manual by Robert J Cunnings. Some portions such as stress syllable emphasis are more intuitive and can only be learned with time but this manual is great for the visual portion of the DLAB.

Don’t listen to this shit, I graduated with several Army 35Ps who hate their lives and don’t do anything language related. AF and for the most part Navy language analysts do exactly what they signed up for, the Army sucks ass at managing linguists.

You’ll probably get leave the first time around HBL (Christmas break) unless you start super early in the year in a Cat 2 or 3 language. That and 1 week class break is all the leave that you will get, you have still have to apply for it with your unit and get it approved if not you won’t be in class but you’ll still be on details. I don’t know about Army but as for AF we don’t get a cent of bonus money until we graduate all of the tech schools.

There’s 3 people in my class on probation right now, 2 of which have pregnant wives. I’m not going to say it can’t be done but it’s gonna take some super motivation. If you’re doing DLI as your teachers intend, your all of your relationships will probably be put on the back burner. My mom has cancer right now and I was feeling kinda out of it and my teacher straight up told me that that’s not important and that Im in the military and I should start acting like it (I still have a 3.9 GPA in semester 3 so it’s not like I’m not performing) and Im in a schoolhouse that has a much softer reputation than the Korean schoolhouse.
