SSG Colon,
I am a recent retired SFC and former Master Driver. In order to be a Master Driver at any level, you just need to complete the two week course. Doesn't matter the location of training or who have that training as long as you've completed the standard Army Master Drivers course. I believe this still comes out of AR 600-55 (1 May 2017).

Sir, I am a civilian who has served as a Master Driver, Kandahar Afghanistan. (2010/2012). At that time I was given a MFR (memorandum for record) by the company commander.
Recently I have been contacted by a civilian contract company to again 'apply' for the position, but a 'in camp' stipulation says that I must now by certified by our US Military.
Sir, do you know of a US Military Base that offers a Master Driver Class that would allow civilians to attend.

The MDT course is geared at people in a brigade level organization that are slotted in that seat. You oversee all the Master Drivers in the brigade. There are a small number of slots available across the AD and NG components, even if you aren't in the slot you may still be eligible to take the course and I highly recommend it. I took it in January and learned quite a bit.

I took the MD course on line 4 years ago, and received a certificate prior to deploying, the unit had to have a MD, I've been in now 35 years and deployed twice haven't had a problem with GCSS Army not honoring it. Is there something else that needs to happen.

SFC. Gould, I am working out at White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico, and I have had a CDL Class A since 1995. My Name is Richard Rivera (SSG) U.S. Army. Nevertheless, I have been trying for years to get into a Master Driver School or even take the course online as you have Sir, where on line might I be able to go, in order to try and take the course.
