Usually for two weeks. This is something the unit pays for after you've already trained at DLI.<br /><br />I'm certain DLI is not coordinating international travels for thousands of students across multiple branches of the military, along with passports, visas, and country clearance requests.Response by SFC Private RallyPoint Member made Dec 17 at 2022 5:39 AM2022-12-17T05:39:44-05:002022-12-17T05:39:44-05:00COL Randall C.8033232<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>** EDIT ** - Apparently they DO send a number of students overseas .. according to their site, "approximately 700 students" each year. See comments below. However, it's not everyone since they have thousands of students each year.<br />-----------------------------<br />I'm familiar with multi-day events where they do immersion training as a field training exercise, but that's done at Ft. Ord - not in another country. <br /><br />They are conducted very similar to what you'd expect in a MOUT exercise (i.e., urban training environment) with play actors speaking only the targeted language.<br /><br />DLI DOES offer to send a few of the top students overseas, budget allowing, but I don't believe it's open to the entire class.Response by COL Randall C. made Dec 17 at 2022 7:43 AM2022-12-17T07:43:18-05:002022-12-17T07:43:18-05:002022-12-17T03:11:09-05:00
