Is it possible to be slotted? Has anyone ever heard of or gone through while deployed? Thanks for any help anyone can give.

in the unit I just served with, they sent a bunch of people back to the states TDY to go to WLC and mos schools. The unit was extended however, and some of the slots were already locked in, but yes it can be done with some work and you may be re-quired to do the school for the unit to let you leave. All you would need is a slot, and an O-6 or higher letter authorizing you to leave theatre

According to desertgrunt I suppose it's possible but the reason I couldn't get BNCOC was because I was deployed.

97E#L00PF... Normally I would venture a guess and say it is not the norm, however people at the right pay grade made the expection. Alot of the schools had been set up well in advance, some more than a year. When the unit got extended, Leaders were asking for execption to policys, and got em. We had people leave for WLC, MOS Schools, NCOES Schools, sniper, pre-ranger/ranger and more.

Sounds good. I already have my Chain Of Command looking into it. I appreciate the help as always.

Just a side note... the NCOA at Ft. Knox is sending MTT teams to Kuwait to conduct BNCOC, and WLC is next on the list.
