Your assessment is spot on! It was Cbt Arms focused but I learned an incredible amount. I really enjoyed the material and had a great syndicate. A real solid course - challenging but reasonable.

Passed the DL test. Seriously, the doctrine you referenced (and i read beforehand) made the difference for me in that one. So, heartfelt and sincere thank you.

Be prepared to walk/ruck. You will walk to the range, on your nav week, the recee patrols. I did it in the summer and our Course O said "welcome to your summer of walking." It was very true. Otherwise, it is just busy. When not in the field, you will be busy in the night doing the lesson plans...

For sure. Got a lot more from here, then my "friends" who took the course.

This is wicked feedback. Thanks! I am adding this to my package.

Got them all located and saved! Will start reading. I really appreciate the feedback.

I am Log O and all my buds tell me we are a bit behind. Apparently, the artillery pers are the best at it?

That is excellent! Thank you so much. I am tracking these down now. :)

I just my load message for ATOC starting January. I would like to do some reading over Christmas. Is there any specific doctrine or pubs that could be helpful to read beforehand? Thank you.

Excellent. Thank you so much!

My CoC have suggested they will nominate me for ATOC. However, we have not seen anything re: course offerings. Did we miss it for this year? I would appreciate any information whether ATOC has already happened, and if not, when it is happening. Thank you.

Will do. Still want to make a contribution and maybe there is something I can do there.

You guys are correct.  It is a tough realization that you have limits, but I hit mine. I will leave the leadership to those better suited than me. Better I figure it out now rather than a situation when lives at risk.  Release memo is drafted and will be delivered tomorrow. Thanks for the honest...

I agree with the comment. That seems to be the challenge for me right now.

Thanks Pusser. I was certainly worked up for it. Everyone told me that this was the course for me. The comments were that BMQ and BMOQ were nothing  and my trade course was only a month, so this is all I had to get through for my career. I was thinking of this and the infantry guys were all...

Thanks for the replies. No idea why I could not sleep. Seems fine now. The thing is, you both hit on the conflicting points. Was totally caught off guard by my reaction on the course. Did not see it coming at all, and makes me wonder whether I have simply reached my limits with it. I can accept...

Ok, so I am going to throw this out there for random advice. My friends and family have a view but none have the military perspective, and I hope someone can help. I went on BMOQ-L/CAP in Aldershot and it did not go well. I was a medical RTU after 2 mods. However, even without this, I am not...

Seriously, thanks everyone for the advice/comments. The foot advice is timely, as my heels sometimes bother me. As well, thanks for the headlamp piece. I started taking glucosamine a few months ago, and I found it did wonders for my knees. I just got to try and keep the body whole for the summer.

Thanks CG. This stuff can be emotional sometimes. Good luck to you.

Perfect. Thanks.
