So. I’m based out of Ft Bliss. I’m currently a PFC. I’m SSA, have been for a year and I don’t find it too much of a challenge. I enjoy being in logistics, I enjoy this base, I enjoyed being in leadership prior to the military, and I enjoy helping people…so I’ve strongly been considering green to gold/wocs. BUT I need to know more details. Google and Reddit have been slightly helpful, but not enough. I’m trying to understand my options for both…and I need to understand honestly and truthfully, which one will help me be of use to my junior enlisted soldiers who don’t trust their leadership and need that breath of fresh air who technically outranks the whole warehouse.

Google and Reddit are not where you need to be looking. Try goarmy.com

I edited some of your topics because they don't fit. You can start by talking with your base education office to find more about Green to Gold. As for WOCS, find the nearest Warrant Officer and ask them about the course. But you won't even see WOCS until you've been in a spell and been in your MOS for a few years and have submitted a packet to be selected by Warrants.

As for Green to Gold, it's a program where you go to college at a school that accepts you AND the G2G packet, where you will attend ROTC commissioning program. Upon completion, you'll become a 2LT. No guarantee that you'll stay in the same career field.

As for which one will set you to be a better Leader.... those programs only give you the tools. It's up to you to USE those tools properly and effectively.
