When I went thru an OSUT (Engineers), the Drill Sergeants stayed the same.

OSUT for Infantry/Armory/CAV Scouts generally have the same Drill Sergeants throughout unless things have changed.

When I went through in 2011, you had the same Drill Sergeants throughout! I'm sure that hasn't changed. Good luck!

I graduated 19K OSUT and was a Drill Sgt as well. 19K OSUT is 16 weeks long and you will have the same Drills thru out.

My son is 3 weeks into OSUT now. Do the trainees get moved into different barracks? Are their days still regimented or do they have more freedom? Thank you!

They spend all 16 weeks in the same barracks and as time goes on they get more freedom( in small increments). There will be at least one DS present at all times.

The same Drills are with you from the start of OSUT to the Finish. The BCT portion of OSUT is generally the same as everywhere else but when you go on to the AIT portion the only thing that changes is rather than learning general soldier knowledge you'll move on to Tank related tasks like driving, loading and Gunnery Skills testing. You'll be at Harmony Church at Fort Benning, in one of the Companies in 1-81 AR.

When I went thru BCT, and AIT, both areas had different DS's . That was going on 41 yrs. ago.
