You learn something new every day. As someone who just finished MCCC I can tell you that you need to get very familiar with ATP 3-21.10 which is the new Infantry Rifle Company pub. The new MCCC curriculum essentially follows that throughout Company phase. As far as staff work get familiar with MDMP, the Operations Process and Mission Command. <a target="_blank" href="https://armypubs.army.mil/epubs/DR_pubs/DR_a/pdf/web/ARN8519_ATP%203-21x10%20Final%20Web.pdf">https://armypubs.army.mil/epubs/DR_pubs/DR_a/pdf/web/ARN8519_ATP%203-21x10%20Final%20Web.pdf</a> <div class="pta-link-card answers-template-image type-default"> <div class="pta-link-card-picture"> </div> <div class="pta-link-card-content"> <p class="pta-link-card-title"> <a target="blank" href="https://armypubs.army.mil/epubs/DR_pubs/DR_a/pdf/web/ARN8519_ATP%203-21x10%20Final%20Web.pdf">ARN8519_ATP%25203-21x10%2520Final%2520Web.pdf</a> </p> <p class="pta-link-card-description"></p> </div> <div class="clearfix"></div> </div> CPT Private RallyPoint Member Mon, 31 Dec 2018 18:14:15 -0500 2018-12-31T18:14:15-05:00 Response by SSG Private RallyPoint Member made Dec 31 at 2018 7:25 PM https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/what-can-i-expect-and-what-should-i-prepare-for-at-the-whinsec-captains-career-course-as-a-non-infantry-officer?n=4249789&urlhash=4249789 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Sir get the Ranger hand book and FM 3-21.8 Infantry Squad and Platoon manual. I hope I was able to soften you up for the Infantry world a little before you went. Good luck I know you will do well. If you have any questions during the course let me know.
