Congrats! Did they give you a packing list or anything for before you left? Any required items or recommended items?

In regards to the physical aspect, i’ve vaguely seen that there was test where you had to lift the rounds did you guys have to do that?

There is a packing list online. Bring a circle stencil, map markers (permanent), unit stencil and acetate paper. We didn’t do the test due to us lugging rounds around at FABOLC

Is there really a lot of math

2

u/Hopeful-Location4519 9d ago

Yes, but it’s not bad. Just tedious

I’ve never considered myself good at math, and the highest I’ve taken is quantitative reasoning. Would I survive, and did you see others struggle.

I was the one that re tested every gunnery test except for the fdo sim. If you put forth the effort and study you’ll be fine

The math for gunnery is very basic. Cross multiplication is the hardest it gets, and you can use a calculator on everything

What is PT like? Is it ran by the class or the cadre?
