    Requesting Reserves after branching

    I'm pretty sure you can't. Once you go active, that's where the Army has you slotted, but I guess it can't hurt to ask.

    Holiday leave during BOLC

    Check out block leave. Essentially the Army shuts down for about 10 days around Christmas. Not sure how it works exactly or what the dates are.

    Credit Hours for ROTC Students

    One thing to consider as well is ROTC coursework. I loaded up my sophomore and freshman years because I knew MSIII and MSIV years would be a lot more work for ROTC.

    LDAC 2014

    I think this is a fair assessment. There were issues for LDAC in 2013 when it's been at Lewis for 40 years... Obviously there will be some hiccups. But that's alright! It'll be good training.

    AROTC sophomore illness requiring no PT

    LDAC Question from a parent

    Just so you know all cadets are spaced out through LDAC. The odds of being with another cadet from same school in the same Reg is not too bad, company is lower, and Platoon is even lower than that. Just so you know!:thumb:
