It will look better at RASP and if you are not selected you are still more qualified than your peers.Response by CSM Michael Chavaree made Oct 26 at 2018 5:53 PM2018-10-26T17:53:11-04:002018-10-26T17:53:11-04:00SPC Elijah J. Henry, MBA4077149<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Get your Tab first. As CBRN you won't have it as bad as Infantry regarding getting smoked and dissed all the time, but the Tab will still solidify your position in Batt. Also, as CBRN you'll have a hard time finding time to go to School while in Batt, because there aren't a lot of CBRN guys there.Response by SPC Elijah J.

I would recommend if your unit is willing to send you then go first. It was slightly different when I went through. Non tabed went to RIP and tabed went through ROP if NCO or an Officer.Response by SFC Private RallyPoint Member made Oct 27 at 2018 2:49 PM2018-10-27T14:49:50-04:002018-10-27T14:49:50-04:001LT W.
