Quick question fellas. I am going to PLC-C this summer and then will go back to school and be graduated in DEC. of 2004. When will I report to TBS? What is the probability of being able to leave TBS for a couple of days for a wedding(my sisters)? Thanks for any responses.

If your going PLC combined be prepared to grab you ankles trying to get a TBS date. I was combined last year and am waiting for one right now. It looks like I'll be waiting about 5 months before I report. Academy and OCC guys get first shot then ROTC then PLC. Just the way it works. As for leave I'm sure one of the TBS LT's on this site could answer it definitivly but I'm pretty sure thats a no unless the wedding is in the D.C. area.

Don't you go to OCS before TBS? Am I off on that?

Don't believe everything you hear. I thought I was going to be waiting for a long timeafter grad for TBS, too. I had enough forethought to get all my paperwork ready (unless you plan on failing out of the program) so when I got home from OCS (PLC Sr) I could get things rolling right away. I graduated on Dec 13 and was commissioned Dec 20. I had to sweet talk the staff in the registrars office, but I got things done. I am checking in April 8 for TBS with C co. As I told someone before, the moral of the story is don't sit on your ass waiting for things to get done. From the candidates I talk to who are upset about waitng for TBS dates, waited for the OSO or the secretary to get the process started.

I went through this as well. Basically, I had to continue working my civilian job for a few months. (a crummy one at that). Here's what happened... Graduated college in May of 2002. Was commissioned in August and told that my tentative ship date for TBS had been pushed back once again to July of 2003. Around the second week of November 2002, my OSO called to wish me a happy birthday and let me know I needed to report to Camp Barrett (TBS) NLT 2359 on 25NOV02.
Do your best to plan around a long lag in training, but don't be surprised if you get orders giving you less than two weeks notice.
