These armor soldiers will go through the new 22-week OSUT
By: Todd South   1 hour ago
This month two classes of future armor crewmen and scouts kick off extended One Station Unit Training in a pilot program similar to what the Army did a year ago with its infantry.
If approved, the training changes could become permanent this time next year, as they did for infantry following their pilot programs.
The effort doesn’t just lengthen their initial training, it adds driving time, vehicle identification time, vehicle maintenance time and puts soldiers in touch with all the platforms they might see. It also pushes them on increased standards for shooting both their individual and platform weapons, navigating on foot and mounted and meeting the same fitness standards as their infantry counterparts.
