Finally Finished with Level V

James Shaw · January 11, 2009, 02:22:24 PM

This may not warrant a new thread but I am finally finsihed with Level 5. My Gill Robb Wilson number is #2627. I still intend on going to the RSC when available even though I have done SOS. I also want to attend a UCC when one is in my area.

Both of these are part of the OE track.

Woo hoo! Congrats!

NSC will be a bit of a challenge, but I'll get there eventually.

Yay! Congrats!!! :clap:

Good work!

How long in total did it take you??

I go to PCRSC in March, last requirement I need to complete Level IV and the Garber. Earliest I can consider attending NSC would be the fall of 2010; if there are no hangups up the chain I get my gold bottlecaps and farts and darts on the bus driver cap in July 2010. I have most of the requirements for Level V already taken care of.

Hey, nice work!

Congratulations! A fine achievement, but one that I never expect to attain. I have done up through level IV, thanks mostly to my military PME and random courses in CAP.

Stay with it and become the National Commander!!!!!

Congrats, Major! It feels good to have that sucker behind you, doesn't it?

I did mine the same way ... SOS and ACSC. I started to enroll in AWC, but decided to retire instead.

Wear that Wilson with pride, my friend!

I will do ACSC and AWC some time down the line. Maybe after I make Lt. Col. I will definitely wear it with pride.

The way I have approached it. Family activity first then work on CAP courses.

When I wanted to go to the SLS/CLC weekend I took my family out of town for the weekend before going to SLS/CLC. They usually knew I was going out the next week. Family First!
