I'm a former 11B, went recruiting, got out and coming back in on active duty as a 35F at the rank of E-6. Just curious as to what to expect. I'll be at Ft Huachuca and driving down so I'll have a POV there, will I have to park it or will I be able to use it? Will I be in class/formation with IET soldiers? My wife is wanting to bring the kids down to visit while I'm in school, will I be able to see them or is it pretty much lockdown the whole time? Thank you for any feedback.

I was a MOS-T as a reclass at Ft. Huachuca in 2013. PM or email me and I will let you know how it’ll be for you down there.
To answer your questions in the short term:
Yes you will be in formation, PT, and class with the IET Soldiers. There are certain details/training with that that you’ll be expected to do (CQ/SD, assist with 350-1, etc).
You will not be housed with them. You’ll very likely stay in Riley Barracks (may god have mercy on your soul) which is across base essentially.
Your family will very likely be able to visit you. You’ll either sign them in during visitor hours or you could get a room for the weekend at the IHG (candlewood suites) on base.
P.S. They’ll (DSs and Instructors) brief you but do not associate with the IET soldiers outside of training. You’re there for an MOS, not to chance ending your career (not saying you would but the territory is there and if you don’t - watch out for your fellow MOS-Ts there).
Hope this all helps.

WO1 (Join to see) My first re-class at Huachuca the CSM briefed the MOS-Ts. Part of his briefing was (this isn't verbatim, but it is pretty close) "If you are driving down Hatfield (one of the main streets on Ft H) and it is pissing down rain, and it you see one of your classmates shivering walking down the sidewalk back to their barracks....... Honk and wave as you splash them when passing by."
My second re-class at Fort Huachuca, my platoon was something like 185 Soldiers... 65 MOS-T. I was one of about 5 that there were no rumors of inappropriate relationships. And we had (IIRC) 7 NCOs lose rank.
Don't allow even the PERCEPTION of impropriety.

SGT(P) (Join to see) it’s the same as AIT. Because that’s why it is. I think it’s 4-5 months

I sent you a connection request. I'll be headed to Huachuca shortly to start instructing at AIT. Feel free to send additional questions and I'll reach out to my sponsor and people I know currently instructing at the 35F AIT companies. If they don't have an answer, I'll try to find out once I arrive.

That sounds like a pretty sweet gig. I was an instructor in the Army Reserve for a while supporting the ROTC mission. Instructor is a very rewarding assignment. I think it also helped me become a better student.
