As a prior service Army E5 with no BLC joining the National Guard, is BLC different for Active Duty compared to Reserves/National Guard?

I heard that it was a shorter version of BLC for National Guard soldiers vs AD soldiers? Is this true or do all go trough the same BLC?

If you are Guard/Reserve go to Active Duty schools every chance you get. Great way to build retirement points.

I took it in the NG and it was two weeks - but it was four weeks of instruction compressed into two weeks. We started class at 0400 and it ran till 2100-2200

When I went thru in 2015 it was all the same active and national guard. I went in kuwait while on deployment so idk if that matters.

It’s cake man. Seriously just don’t be a asshole and you’ll graduate. It’s hot as hell so just pound water. The last day before graduation is a STX lane that’s actually pretty badass. I enjoyed it. Just know the 9line for Med and UXO and battle drills.
