Any training you can get is good training. Many NG courses are top schools. The NG ran an Air Assault school at Davis Field in OK in the early 90's that was no cake walk. Check around and don't take the first advice you get. And no offence but the Officers that served in the enlisted ranks first are much better officers. Most NG instructors served on active duty and continued their careers in the NG. Of course you can take the word of some Cadet who has no clue what the real military is like outside in the real world.

Please enlighten me on this "real world" it sounds so interesting. I guess being a grenadier in a line unit doesn't count as the real world military. The polite thing to do would be to ask where I got my information from. But if you are going to question my integrity you might as well just come out and say it.

I have one question, how can you be a 95BV5 with only 6 yrs. TIS? What you are saying is that you are an senior NCO MP, with a Ranger Tab. Unless you were an MP in Regiment(which doesn't have MPs) you would be hard pressed to get RNGR school, E8 usually take 14-18 years to get. The proper designation would be a 95B50V. Skill level goes before special skill designator. If I am wrong please correct me.
