The Army is obviously in need of more Drill Sergeants right now, as the current issue of Army Times clearly points to. So my question is, is there a base of NCOs out there who considered the idea but not pursued it? Maybe you&#39;re looking for a new home in the Army Reserves?<br /><br />I&#39;m about to wrap up my first AT as Company Commander with B Co 1-320/3/98th here at Fort Jackson and I have to say, it&#39;s a lot of fun watching these guys work and seeing the Drill Sergeant from the &quot;not so scary side.&quot; So you want to be a Drill Sergeant? 2014-09-20T20:05:55-04:00 1LT Private RallyPoint Member 249112 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Reservist?

That&#39;s my Company Commander out there pounding the pavement. Love it ;) Response by COL Private RallyPoint Member made Oct 15 at 2014 4:32 PM 2014-10-15T16:32:59-04:00 2014-10-15T16:32:59-04:00 1SG Michael Blount 463365 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>If Abingdon, VA isn&#39;t convenient to your HOR, consider Charlottesville, Alexandria, Roanoke or Lynchburg. There are USAR Drill Sergeant units there, as well, all of which have vacancies. Personally, I&#39;m partial to Charlottesville.<br /><br />r,<br />1SG Blount Response by 1SG Michael Blount made Feb 8 at 2015 2:41 PM 2015-02-08T14:41:32-05:00 2015-02-08T14:41:32-05:00 SFC Private RallyPoint Member 463393 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>My first reserve unit was a Drill Sergeant unit. That&#39;s the only reason I came back. Sadly, it didn&#39;t work out. But I am so dedicated to the task of training tomorrow&#39;s warriors that I have begun comms with a unit in the next state. They have a consistent track record of sending candidates, and I am just waiting until I am eligible for a transfer. It&#39;s like waiting for christmas, but it has been my only goal since joining the Army. So it is worth it.
