I am MOS-T. How far are Riley barracks from the school house?

Absolutely!!! Yes! Highly recommended! The school house is about a 20 minute drive from the barracks. You could carpool with others, but you will feel better having your own and not relying on others. Plus you will also have transport to go to all the different locations they will put out for formation. Once the duty day is over and your have your weekends, you can drive into the city or Tucson.

Do your orders authorize a POV?.

Authorization of your POV should be outlined in your ATTRS description. I believe it says something like, transportation will be provided to the student, but you can bring your POV. I don’t recall seeing anything in my orders about POV authorization. Although, I had to get permission from my prior BN CSM to drive out to Huachuca. Last time I was there, (Jan 2018) school house didn’t care if you drove your POV. It’s definitely better than riding on the bus with initial entry soldiers.

Make sure it's in good driving shape , there are some long stretches of open road and not a lot of traffic in some places . Good battery ..check
Plenty of coolant ..check
Couple of bottles of water ..check ..Good tires And I'm not kidding the road heat out there will eat up tires

How do you go about taking your car with you to AIT? I thought you had to be on government transport to AIT
