I literally just received the MOI for a DSL interview at the end of this month to become a DSL. I am AGR. I worked this through my career manager. I recommend that you contact your career manager and request that they reach out to the DS career manager. However I think they only reason why I got screened is because I am already DS qualified, otherwise being sent to DS school as an AGR will be challenging but not impossible. I had one AGR (NG) DS Candidate in my class in 2014. Her unit was just cool enough to fund her. But seriously, the 'how' all begins with your career manager. If you've got any more question let me know. I know USAREC is targeting a ton of AGRs right now, and I dont believe anyone wants that.

Sounds like we may have been in the same class. I knew an AGR (NG) female by the name of SSG Buchanan when I went thru. Same story. I'll be belted this July timeframe. I'm at a BCT right now as a DS "refresher"

While I was about to go Texas National Guard (going active now) they had offered me a slot in Texas as a drill sergeant. I think mainly to prep dudes before they ship off. But from what I’ve been told there are opportunities for agr drill sergeants hope it help.

Could I get in touch with you about that? I was actually wondering if they had that opportunity on the NG side, instead of me switching over to the Reserve.

CSM Payne, I am not DS qualified but would like the opportunity sometime in the future. I am currently an AGR Soldier and am just looking towards my future in the Army. Thanks for the reply.

There are a number of reserve drill sergeant slots at the drill sergeant school but you have to be an experienced drill sergeant. I know the incoming CSM for the 108th Training Command. Give me a little time and I’ll research this for you.
