Hello all and thank you for your insights and info on my previous questions. I want to maximize the experience I will be getting from my first (and possibly last due to ROTC when I come back) deployment as enlisted, and would like to partake and hopefully obtain Air Assault wings while in Afghanistan. What would be the steps I need to take in order to attend, if it is possible to do so?

You probably stand a better chance of attending AA school while in ROTC than you would trying to find a course being conducted in Afghanistan

They have 1 or 2 Air Assault Courses a year in Kuwait (Camp Buehring) but I can't see your command sending you to one of them from Afghanistan.

Slots are very few. We had 15 for our entire Brigade in 2017 when I was there.
