I'm a contracted MS3 cadet heading to LDAC this summer. I joined ROTC and attended LTC last summer. I want to attend follow on training after LDAC and I'm looking for your advice on which to choose. My main options are:
-DCLT: Drill Cadet Leadership Training; following LDAC you attend a 1 week cadre training class and then spend 3 weeks at either BCT or OSUT, assisting in training and shadowing Drill Sergeants and NCO's in order to learn from them. This is a one time opportunity to spend some more time under the mentorship of Drill Sergeants before I commission and I would really value that. This option requires committing before leaving for LDAC.
Airborne/Air Assault/Mountain Warfare slots that may or may not be available to me upon completion of LDAC. Airborne would obviously be my preference of the three; as I heard a Ranger here say, "no one sings fucking cadences about air assault".

On one hand DCLT is a one time opportunity, on the other hand I hear the last thing one wants to do is go to RS as a leg (if Murphy's law kicked in and I couldn't get a slot before going to RS).
