Where can I find a copy of the welcome letter for MI BOLC? What can I expect while there in school?

I’ve been in the Army since 2012, so I have a fair understanding of a lot of what I will experience.

That being said, has anybody that went through the course received a rental? Where are students generally staying, is the on post hotel an option? Finally, how much time did recent classes spend in the field? I’ve heard a week and a month.

The school should have a website and a link to the bolc welcome letter. Generally if the school is less than 6 months, you are tdy, and would stay at the on post IHG. If it’s a PCS, then you start house hunting.

You've been a 2LT for 9-10 years?

Have you tried reaching out to the 304th MI BN? Go to IKN and you can find contact information. Rental cars are usually not paid for by units for 4 1/2 month courses. Plan on driving to Huachuca. The on post hotel is a good option for students but I have heard of students seeking short term leases or monthly Air BNB for housing. The course ends with a 30 day ftx.

I am surprised that a school does not have adequate BOQs for students.
