If possible, maybe go into weapon ballistics and more focus on team organic weapon systems i.e. proper zeroing with all sights ( explanations of weather and MOA, Ballistics) from iron to EOtech. I think someone mentioned field expedient repairs. I know i wouldnt have enjoyed it much but there is the necessity of knowing the paperwork side ( 2404's, 123 reps.). Maybe some visibility on that.
Vehicular weapon mounting lessons learned (among the other myriad of things)
i understand that if you get a squared away senior alot of this stuff should be passed on But in my case i was the senior when i showed up and it was a slightly rocky road for at least the first 6 months that i was on a det.
Mortars have always seemed to be one of the things that seperates a bravo but where ive been it has been a hard skill to sustain ( can anyone agree?). Ive had to do some serious last minute sustainment training on that once or twice. Im not sure how they can improve on that, In all honesty when i went through the course i thought they did a thorough job on that (along with everything else for that matter).
I think SFAUC should be its own phase with stringent grading.

thanks
