I am slotted to become an AIT PLT SGT and dates have been reserved for AUG '15, with graduation at the end of September.
Would I be able to request orders to report early to my next assignment?

In AZ schools start the first week of August, and I wouldn't want my children to have to be enrolled for only a few weeks then taken out, and miss out on school with PCS travel etc.

SSG Private RallyPoint Member By the way, great job opportunity. How do you manage those cool locations? CONUS I seem to only be able to find Fort Dix, or Fort Polk. LOL

You will have to go through the drill sergeant branch for early reporting. They can make it happen, it will just be a pain in your butt to get it done.

My last 2 years as an AIT PSG, have been super busy, 16+ hour days pretty regularly and a lot of weekend work. However, it has been a rewarding two years working with and molding the future. They have a million and one questions and half of them the same lol but you will feel good when you (finally) go home for the night.

Good luck on your journey and with the early reporting!
