    Thanks. And yeah, definitely. I'll probably post a discussion on it when I get back and you can hit me up with questions then. Hopefully I don't have to sign a NDA for the entire course.

    Actually, some of the contacts that are making it happen are assigned to the 561st NOS in Colorado Springs. So there is definitely a chance I could be coming back there. For training, I'm going to Pensacola Florida (Hurlburt Field).

    Yeah, I see those Network Warfare Operator jobs (civilian) pop up from time to time and would love get one of them.

    Yeah...I might still be here in San Antonio. I'm probably either going to get assigned to Net Operations Squadron in Colorado, or Network Warfare Squadron in San Antonio. Its kind of ironic...the only two places that are possibilities for this job are the two places I've already been stationed.

    Cool! There aren't too many of those (that I've seen anyway) in the guard/reserves. I've just been thrown into the the 3d0x3 field. How I went from 3d1x2 to that *shrugs* I guess they want me to do IA & QA for the LAN shop. Jokes on them because I'm the worst out of the whole shop at paperwork! icon_lol.gif

    Congrats, I graduated top of my class back in 09. They wanted me to help stand up the Tech School/Follow-on Training back then, turned them down because I wanted to be in the fight. AFPC turned down all the moves anyway because my DEROS didn't match up.

    You will have a lot you cannot talk about but the training is top notch, at least it was when I went.

    Network Warfare Squadron has a nicer ring to it, right? :)

    Any job with the word Warfare in the title is officially pimp.

    Much respect for defending our country on the digital battlefield. I assume your job is something along those lines. Best of luck!
