Has anyone been through the rigmarole of getting their pistol/rifle quals while in primary/advanced at whiting? Since that command doesn't physically qualify anyone we potentially have the option to qual with a contractor. Said contractor explained that we have to find out if the CO or someone in the CoC with directive from the CO will sign off on the quals. Anyone know where I should start without pissing the wrong person off by asking a question like this? Another month or so until I class up so I figured I'd knock it out.
Thanks
I was a -2 IP. While I knew a couple students who did this, they never involved the squadron. I believe they went through the conspiracy theorists course.
Plus side is if you do this you'll get to shoot which is always fun. Minus side is you'll get to be mistaken for an academy kid every time you're in your Khakis while in the VTs... That and you risk the stigma of some people thinking you "bought" your medals.
The pistol qual you'll get in the fleet before deployment. The rifle qual- meh.
