MFF Stand-by...

Is there anyone on the forum who works at the MFF schoolhouse? If so, can PM me the proper procedure to get an individual on the stand-by list?

As one veteran of Operation White Star described the situation: “We were teaching too many subordinates over there (Vietnam) when we should have been teaching the superiors. Why teach the lower-grade people when higher-ups don’t know how to utilize the skills taught? It’s a waste of time.”

If you belong to USASFC(A) the only way to get on the standby list is through your SFG(A). We (USASFC(A) G3Training) have a representative at every class sign in with a roster. If you're not on it, you will be turned away. Sorry - those slots are valuable; we have a better knowlege of the Regiment's requirements and we can't afford to allow much leeway.

For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.

The MFFS doesn't put you in as a 'stand-by.
USASOC manages the slots based on input by USASFC

I'm with 19th Group and on a MFF Team. I've sent two guys from my ODA on stand by (each in a separate class). It's a complicated process on the guard side.

First: your state has to buy off on sending a guy who may or may not get in. So figure in P & A and O & M and a 3 day set of orders though DTS.

Once you get support from your Troop Command and State, your AOB needs to push the request to your Bn, Group, and NGB. NGB will then push the request up which then mirrors what the other guys stated.

Like I said, I sent a total of 2 guys (2010, and 2011), both got in and graduated.
