I won't assume 369 because you're 25B.<br /><a target="_blank" href="https://www.rallypoint.com/units/15th-sig-bde-15th-regimental-signal-brigade-rsb-fort-gordon-ga">https://www.rallypoint.com/units/15th-sig-bde-15th-regimental-signal-brigade-rsb-fort-gordon-ga</a> <div class="pta-link-card answers-template-image type-default">

Go to School as a Student... NCOES... Instructor it all makes a Big difference...Response by SFC George Smith made Nov 26 at 2016 10:18 PM2016-11-26T22:18:11-05:002016-11-26T22:18:11-05:00SGT Alan Dike2110610<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Last I heard, if you become an instructor.. they will make you get certified in a couple different things. I'm no longer in contact with my old signal school instructors, but they all seemed to enjoy it.<br /><br />Whats your MOS? Makes a huge difference in what you're likely to be doing.

I started out in C Co., 551st Sig BN and then moved to D-442. I had fun there and even though there was some higher than normal BS for permanent party, I still enjoyed my time.Response by SSG Laurie Mullen made Nov 28 at 2016 6:48 AM2016-11-28T06:48:48-05:002016-11-28T06:48:48-05:00CPT Eric Miller2116899<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Good family time, military in town but not a military town.Response by CPT Eric Miller made Nov 29 at 2016 6:52 AM2016-11-29T06:52:04-05:002016-11-29T06:52:04-05:00SSG Duane Tyler2116941<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>You will probably go to the 551st and that's where all the 25B Instructors go. Dixon Hall is where you will be teaching. I was just down there last week to talk to the Branch Chief (civilian GS-15), who is a retired NCO and a very good friend of mine, and he told me what his forecast was going to be at the school house in 2017. They are cutting some civilian instructors and beefing it up with military. You have every certification available at your finger tips to include the practice ones. He'The Branch Chief lets me borrow books for CISCO to help me through my college classes pertaining to Networking, take practice exams and other things. It is really a family oriented work environment between the civilians and military instructors. It can be frustrating at times because you're dealing with kids (my opinion) but it's a good place to be. Expect some shift work ESPECIALLY if you end up in the NCO Academy and that's a lot of work but wither way it is very rewarding. I retired from the Ordnance School on Gordon almost 7 yrs ago and I am expecting to work at the 25B school sometime in 2017 or possibly the Academy. Good Luck!!Response by SSG Duane Tyler made Nov 29 at 2016 7:14 AM2016-11-29T07:14:25-05:002016-11-29T07:14:25-05:00MAJ Seth Goldstein2117317<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Just remember when people start talking mess, "You can talk about us but you can't talk without us."Response by MAJ Seth Goldstein made Nov 29 at 2016 9:52 AM2016-11-29T09:52:08-05:002016-11-29T09:52:08-05:00SPC Thomas Marszalek2117704<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I was at Ft. Gordon back in the early 70's for my 31L2T MOS, so I only can imagine how much has changed in all these years. I really enjoyed the catfish fries that many of the black churches in Augusta had and the people were welcoming and awesome.
