From Citizen to Soldier in 9 Weeks

The Army uses the “Go/No Go” performance testing system, which ensures you learn basic soldiering skills thoroughly and accurately. Simply put, if you get a “No/Go” on a performance test, you will be required to repeat that training. The challenges will be tough, but remember, you will not be asked to do anything you cannot do. The Army National Guard understands that no one becomes a Soldier overnight. Every new Soldier goes through a normal period of adjustment and growth. You are not expected to do it alone; you have the support of your family, your friends, and your fellow Soldiers. With determination and drive, you will succeed. Typically, basic combat training will take nine weeks . . . sure to be nine of the most amazing weeks of your life!
